Thanks for your honest thoughts on it and your experience. Even though CO media team doesn't deserve toxicity imo, (I think Paradox management deserves it more), a lot is genuine feedback about people's poor experiences with the game.

I pushed through a 100k pop play through at 10fps 720p by the end before I upgraded my PC. That would be unacceptable for most but I had fun.

I had fun as well and got to 160k. I tried to reduce population as much as I could but my city was way to developed.

For me there is no replay value until more is added. The cities are really plain and a lot of the default assets look like crap. I know it will be fixed in the future but CO has this attitude that we should be greatful for the shit that was released and are happy to keep us waiting months for basic fixes and features.
