Cities: Skylines 2 released in a less than ideal state, and most of the talk around the game has centred around how Colossal Order intends to fix various issues with the game’s performance. Now, the studio has resumed its weekly “CO Word of the Week” feature—last sighted in 2018—to keep players updated on its progress. Specifically, at least for the first post, its progress on garbage patches and roaming gangs of stray dogs. What’s going on over there, you guys?

Written by Colossal Order CEO Mariina Hallikainen, today’s Word of the Week focuses on the game’s launch, which “was overshadowed by technical issues which caused disappointment, and rightfully so.”

I offered my own feelings on where things were at last year, and fellow Eorzea dweller Harvey Randall dove into the state of Final Fantasy 14 earlier this year.

It’s drummed up thoughts around whether the current post-expansion patch structure—which has largely remained the same across the last decade—needs to change. Some are pretty down with the comfort of knowing what’s coming and when, while I’ve seen murmurings over the last couple…
