  • It would be a cool mechanic if you had to mine ice with a mining drill, then heat it up before using it in water-based recipes. Maybe it could be done with a smelter, at the very least as an excuse to give it a fluid pipe graphic for modded recipes too. Would also be cool if you had to keep pipes heated or they’d burst — there aren’t many “maintenance” or “breakdown” mechanics like that, but it could risk being annoying especially if you’re on another planet.











  • Images are a lot lower resolution (and no “live” photos which are cute if your mom takes a pic of their pet bunny), you can’t add people to group chats or rename them, you can’t see if someone’s read or typed your message, you can’t “like” texts without them appearing like the above post, I think there are even sound bites, little games but I haven’t played with them.




  • It needed to happen at some point. Cities: Skylines had quite a few engine limitations and the core gameplay was too simple, it wasn’t enough to keep piling on new features. A sequel gave them the opportunity to start from scratch and rework fundamental systems (like the roads) without having to ensure old cities still worked.
