That video response is quite accurate, IMO. I realize they have 6 months of development left, but there are a few changes that have me worried. Most notably, is that I prefer to build very large cities that pose big city problems: traffic, crime, pollution, etc, and find innovative ways to deal with them. So far, they only gameplay footage I have seen is of towns and the screenshots of maps seem to indicate that I will not be able to build a huge city.
Secondly, I found I had the most fun dealing with traffic issues by building these really complex road and mass transit systems which employed a mix of massive freeway systems, bus lines, subways, and ferries. So far, I haev only seen really simple bus lines and I am concerned.
I am still excited about this game and hope that this stuff gets addressed soon.
