I’m not sure what a “proper SimCity” means at this point. It’s not like the SC4 team is still around, and Skylines 1 was basically taking the concepts of the SimCity reboot and implementing them on a game without the tech limitations of that release. A new “official” SimCity would have to be either basically Cities Skylines-like… or a completely different game, which at that point would defeat the purpose.
I mean, I’d play another big-budget city builder, but at this point I don’t think the brand holds much weight for me.
Honestly, this whole situation just makes me wish we’d get another proper Sim City. I put ungodly hours into them, especially 4. Maybe one day…

Well I’m a nostalgic old fart for sure. And I know the chances of it are below zero. Still, nostalgia sells. Who knows what can happen.
