The Reason Why I Organize The Contest
I clearly remember the first impression of Cities: Skylines. My first met to this game is on the video of a famous player. I found the Cities: Skylines on his list. I was interested in such kind of games, because I have played “SimCity 2000” and “A-Train 9”. However, Cities: Skylines was exceeding my expectations. Wonderful 3D buildings, jammed cars, walking citizens. There was massive lived-in feel.
I was very impressed. The game was installed into my computer without thought. I was exciting, like a little boy, throughout loading my first map. It was very fun time. Incidentally, after that, I reset the game soon because of right-hand traffic.
After a while, I realized an even better point about this game.
The ordinary play gives me enough experience. Additionally, the high quality custom assets and MODs are released by the fantastic creators everyday. The wonderful players build their city by using those items. Then the screenshots and videos are delivered to a lot of fans all over the world. It is brilliant flow.
I have never seen a title that game developers, contributors and fans have built such as great community.
As one of the mayors, I want to liven up Cities: Skylines by holding the contest. To all mayors loving Cities: Skylines, shall we liven up this title? It would be a great pleasure to me as a contest organizer if you participate in this contest!
