I only play organic games.

It’s decent, I enjoyed it. I do not think a colony sim sets them up well expertise wise for the transit sim/infrastructure design side of things though which I have always believed is the core of Cities Skylines though.

Lol, Cities Skylines is officially dead then. Seems like the team didn’t really know how to make it without Karoliina Korppoo already, but I have zero faith in Paradox/IceFlake making it on their own. The core of Cities Skylines was always the expertise in transit/city simulation developed from Cities In Motion.

Who exactly are their core costumers?

Much of the world outside the US

Maybe if they spent more money making it a good experience that respects customers and developers alike and less on bribing platform exclusives they would be better?

What does Bill Gates have to do with this, he hasn’t been directly involved in Microsoft in 17 years? He hasn’t even been on the board for 5 years.
