Cities would be perfect if it was on the scale of SimCity 4. I want a massive ass city with suburbs that peter out to small towns and shit. I want to basically just become the planner for a county.

So for the first time ever in Historical Focus mode Finland accepted my demands as the USSR for Karelia.

That's inconvenient.

I really want to get back into Skylines, but I want to mod the crap out of it and I don't feel like borrowing against my 401k to be able to do it.

Well it is kind of the only game in its specific genre now. Not much to discuss because it keeps getting updates so there isn't much to complain about because unlike other paradox games the updates don't break the game.

It exists, it's supported, new dlcs don't have a ton of bugs, so there's nothing to complain about, so no one really talks about it.

Yeah you just get Karelia. If they refuse then offer land in a war you get Karelia and a place called Salla further north. I just manually invaded them later as no one guaranteed them thankfully then turned them into a puppet state.

I love that that sound track kicks in the second you start a civil war in the USSR (At least im near certain its this one). Its soo damn good.

One thing about them Soviets is they sure know how to make awesome music. I used to listen to a lot of Red Army Choir stuff years ago as a way of relaxing.
