I’m personally excited, but I am tired of all the doom and gloom talk. Performance will improve, and the mod changes may actually integrate better than steam. We’ll have to wait and see for sure, but I have more faith in CO than, say Blizzard or EA.

City Planner Plays did a benchmarking video he recommended:

Turn off Vsync to avoid the worst stuttering
Disable Dynamic resolution to have things look not terrible at low settings for a minimal performance improvement
Turn off fog, volumetrics and depth of field
Turn LoD to low

and the game should at least run without major stuttering even at 50k population, and generally 30k to 100k would only be about a 15-20% difference in framerate apparently. So for my PC with a 6GB card I should at least be able to run this game until I get a big city.
