Recently got Skylines and g*med hard on it today, but, as someone who sunk hundreds of hours into SimCity 4, I'm not getting the appeal. SimCity 4 is just so much comfier?

Is Skylines really just a traffic simulator? I watched a video by a self-proclaimed city planner all about how to make efficient transitions from the highway to your town, and it seemed like the road building / traffic control is the whole point.

What am I missing?

      Simcity (5) is garbaggio - SimCity 4 is one of those games that I can just turn my brain on autopilot and listen to podcasts while playing, very chill and comfy.
