‘Cities: Skylines’ and the Sewage Tsunami

  There’s something about power that brings out the raw Grade A bastardry in some people. We’re talking dictatorships, tyrannical managers, the boss who came down on your ass like a ton of bricks just because your ‘don’t wear pants to work day’ (which only you knew about) was apparently inappropriate… power takes many forms. It’s hard not to be corrupted by it.  

Look at Superman. Our ol’ Kryptonian buddy tries to be the nerdly do-gooder as much as possible, but even he drops the occasional huge freaking meteor on someone’s city. Man of Steel? That was a bad time for all concerned, right there.

You see something similar in the players of god games. A little while back, we saw some of the many imaginative and horrific ways people have found to torture their Sims. You’re sick, sick people, all of you. These tiny gabbling freaks were relying on you. So are the residents of your Sim City cities and the visitors to your virtual theme parks or whatever game you happen to be playing.

The relatively new kid on the genre block is Cities: Skylines, a game that already seems to have hit new levels of sadism. New, tsunami-of-shit-running-down-the-streets levels. Oh, the horror.
