Cities: Skylines (1 & 2)

I've heard this same argument in many other videos analyzing the videos and images we've gotten as of now from the new game, and I gotta say, I agree, the downtown in the videos feels completely empty and lacks life. Only in some cuts from the videos do I get to see light traffic jams, but the downtown should be completely full, and instead I only really see a few cars.

What do you guys think? Do you think this is just a matter of it being in a beta state? And maybe they turned down the amount of agents? Do you think the network in the city is so good that people just don't seem to get stuck in traffic. Do you think this lack of traffic is being diverted to foot traffic instead, or a really good public network, thus eliminating the need for the car?

I personally believe the fact that the game got rid of pocket cars made it so that people will think twice about the amount of parking space available before they choose to drive their cars, back in C:S 1, the Traffic Manager president edition got rid of pocket cars, and unless you started placing parking spots like crazy people just wouldn't drive their cars and the economy would colapse unless you improved the public transport.
