Hey everyone I just noticed that CS II will be part of the MS Gamepass so I thought this would be interesting for some of you.

I've never played CS or any other city builder but love EU4, Stellaris, and Victoria 3. CS always struck me as a very different genre - I wonder what the overlap in the Paradox community is. Did anyone here go from grand strategy -> city builder? How was the learning curve?

I'd say the overlap is mainly in the "this was huge in PC gaming back in the 90's" angle, more than anything genre-specific. CS is like Sim City but better and more modern. It has real-time water and traffic simulations, so your landscaping, road network, and public transportation options all matter.
