It's actually really smart of the developers to send Kevin an early copy of the game. He'll push the game so hard that they can see exactly how it breaks
Who knew that the clouds that the people from Heaven live on is actually the smog and pollution from Hell? Kevin, not only a military genius, but an educator as well
This makes me wish we could get Kevin playing the inimitable “Afterlife” by Lucasarts. That was a fantastic city sim where you created your own heaven and hell and controlled the beliefs of your planet to control the populations of the two zones. It was wonderful and Kevin could do SO MUCH DAMAGE. It used to be available at GOG, but that was a long time ago.
It's kind of a shame Lucasarts died off to a degree, they did some pretty great stuff. Say what you want about his writing, but Mr. Lucas knew where to put his money when it comes to emerging technology
Seeing as you can now focus on individual NPCs, that gives me an idea. How about a video where you make 1 NPC the city's MVP & only change the city according to their complaints/requests? Could make for a wacky video.
As someone that lives in a third world country, having class divisions dictated by which part of the city you live in feels like home. Thanks for the nostalgia Kevin!
It's always fun to see Kevin make people suffer (and go buy a slow cooker, you have no idea yet how nice it is to come back to a simple stew after a long day of lectures and tutorials, yours faithfully, a recent graduate)
Kevin got a lot of us through college, truly a rite of passage lol. Even 3 years after graduation, I continue my college tradition of watching him while I eat dinner, after a long day and finishing all my work. No better way to unwind.
And this time the Poop Canyon actually worked as intented. Good to know that Mayor Kevin learns from his past failures and refuses to give up on a good idea, no matter how potencially fatal it could be for everyone involved (everyone but the Mayor, of course).
Perhaps Cities: Skylines is not your game because, if you do, you already know how many people have been eagerly anticipating playing this game since June.
@@PredictAnythingSoftware Enjoying a game does not mean you just intrinsically have knowledge of future releases and the amount if ppl looking forward to said releases. Most ppl who enjoy a game open the game and play it, then close it.

Kevin just casually creating a Redline town. For some reason it was the bus shelters vs stops that hit the closest to home. The poors wait in the rain, obv.
Im honestly so happy they added the feature to follow different people through there lives. If im not mistaken one of the old sim city games you could import your sims 1 characters into your city, and then follow their lives in sim city.
The marketing campaign for this game has just been genius, the fact that the videos are all in the creator's respective styles is genius, because if we were never going to buy the game, then we get a fun video, and if we think we might buy the game, we get to see how other people are enjoying it. Inviting the glitchhunting youtubers such as spiff also helps debug the game for launch. It's a type of win : win which I never thought could come out of the marketing industry.
I love the heaven and hell idea, and the poop canyon idea, and I have a suggestion. What do you think of making canals all throughout hell that the poop flows through. It could expand the amount poop that can be stored by a considerable amount, and it would hell even more hellish. You could also make it lead out into the ocean, and give hell their own water source that meets up with it, while giving heaven a clean water source. The only real concern with this would be the cost, but if that is manageable then I believe this could greatly improve the theme of the city. Also as I was typing this, I had another idea. I don't know how possible this is in this game, but expanding heaven to be literally on top of hell would be great. This could be by literally building a hollow plateau with hell inside it and heaven above it, or by building some kind of platform like FF7's Midgar which separated the upper and lower classes.
It’s almost like class divides are a real thing that sci-fi is trying to help keep basic awareness of lest we rescind all our basic human rights to billionaires…again.
Cities Skylines two feels like a rebirth, a refresh to the franchise and the whole gaming world. Absolutely perfect game, no bugs, no lacking content, everything is amazing.
The game looks absolutely... Rough... How many Frames was Kevin getting on his play of the game? I assume no higher than 30. And if he has like, a 4090, I can just IMAGINE how terribly it would run on normal people's computers.
Well this aged perfectly considering the current condition of this game lol. I was gonna buy it but I always wait a few weeks after release for that reason. Apparently people are pretty pissed at it right now and the CEO of paradox basically said “oh well” they also launched it without mod support from what I’ve heard. Oh well, back to CS1!
@@grizzlycmmg9578 it's all about pumping cash over their previous product than keeping a stable reputation on the long run it's more profitable to pump cash without considering the company's future "i want money and i want it now" is the kind of mentality that kills any company when they go down that way
Kevin basically created the movie Elysium. The poor stay in one area and get nothing and get treated like crap while the rich stay in a different area, get amazing living, and these magical devices that cure all diseases. I love your maniacal demeanor Kevin. Appreciate your content.
We citizens of planet Earth are incredibly lucky that video games exist, imagine if they didn't and Kevin had to find something in the real world to do
@@elluelsila Early version or not, the game is 1 and a half months away from release. Showcasing a build that looks like this (even the trailers looked like shit for the most part) is a pretty dumb marketing idea. So far the optimization looks even worse than Cities Skylines 1.
*Kevin gets brand new revolutionizing city building game* *Also Kevin builds poop canyon 30 seconds in* Never change Kevin......never change.....mostly because if you dont change itll be easier for the police to catch you and Ireland will be safe once more.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that last tweet that showed up before Kevin ended the video? "I just love this weather! Not too hot, not too cold! #perfect" I can only assume that's from someone who didn't happen to live in the house that suddenly got a shitton of sewage poured on top of it...
I do wish there was a tool to copy tiles from different/same buildings to create your own custom sub-building For instance, taking a few grave tiles from a large graveyard to make a custom small graveyard that can be copied and placed as a custom building Cost and performance is based on percentage of tiles used, so 50/100% would give 50% performance, and cost Might have some issues, but sounds like a good idea!
Huh, apparently the road to hell is paved with poo canyons and parking lots. Glad this was the first CS2 video I’ve watched, time to put down the preorder
Very good video city skylines is a good pair for Kevin I saw other gaming celebrities playing city skylines but this is the most enjoyable one I have seen
kevin thank you! basically you help inspired me to graduate. when i was younger i had to drop out of school too because of health issues. well yesterday i got my GED and scored pretty well on all my tests. when i dropped out it was really scary but it was the best choice for me. your story helped show me that life doesn’t really end after that so thank you so much. i hope as i grow up i can be like you more and more! still gonna look out for cars though.
That’s what I was thinking, if they don’t optimise it I can imagine it being unplayable for 99% of people as I would assume Kevin has a very very high spec pc. The graphics also don’t look incredible or anything so turning them down doesn’t seem like a very good option even.
@@lumbagoboi1649 yes cuz Ik the trailer was like a cinematic trailer but it really hyped up the graphics so if they are as dog shit as in these vids imma be so disappointed
Hrm...so you built a heavenly, advanced, happy city on a hill with a ruined castle and the dirty, polluted, industrial slum below it. So basically, you just rebuilt Edinburgh and Aberdeen.
The poor old Oirish farmer His income is so small It's hardly worth his while Getting out of bed at all The poor old Oirish farmer His future is in doubt He climbs into his tractor And he drives it all about
Paradox sponsored CallMeKevin, Ambigiousamphibian, Lets game it out and The Spiffing Brit and have them uploading simultaneously. Im just waiting for RealCivilEnginneer to upload, but they made my day fr
Let’s face it we all knew the second the game came out people like Kevin and RT were going to turn it into a city obliterator rather than a city builder.

Omg I can’t wait till this releases in October!!! I’m literally playing Cities Skylines and binging Kevin videos this morning! My two favorite things!
Kevin, why are you just copying modern city planning. Are you running out of ideas?
It's coming 1 day before my birthday lol
Cheese 🧀 gromit
Yes
We just wanted the general population to see how bad it could be. And now they're all happy by comparison
❤ thanks for trusting our Kevo with the early teaser
I'll make my city suffer when I get ur game
Amazing comment!
Y’all couldn’t have picked a better creator to trust this early game with.
they also picked lets game it out and more@@TheBenSanders
It's actually really smart of the developers to send Kevin an early copy of the game. He'll push the game so hard that they can see exactly how it breaks
Yes! Haha that's why they also send it to Let's Game It Out! If you make a game you want these two guys to break it! Bahaha
*just game it out standing in the corner*
Spiffing Brit, Kevin and Lets Game It Out:
Finally a new release! Our game breaking exploits are gonna be legendary!
Who knew that the clouds that the people from Heaven live on is actually the smog and pollution from Hell? Kevin, not only a military genius, but an educator as well
Huh... That does sound like something you would read on a book. Kevin is truly a metalinguistic genius
Kevin best theologian
Genius pedagogist
“I’m not planning on any emergencies” is such subtle comedy genius
Whenever I feel like my city is bad, I cheer myself up by remembering that at least Kevin isn't in charge.
Your citizens think the same 😂😂😂
Unless youre Canadian
*_are you sure about that_*
I love that Kevin is the one playing City normally and then there’s Dan who’s suspended 100 ft in the air.
Well he is after all the country roads guy
We all know the real reason Kevin wasn't asked to join the others suspended in the air, he'd find a way to set it on fire.
Kevin was too busy in the ring of fire 🙂
“Normally”??
Kinda sad that Kevin wasn't there along with the other youtubers suspended in the air, would've been some quality content I'm sure!
This makes me wish we could get Kevin playing the inimitable “Afterlife” by Lucasarts. That was a fantastic city sim where you created your own heaven and hell and controlled the beliefs of your planet to control the populations of the two zones. It was wonderful and Kevin could do SO MUCH DAMAGE. It used to be available at GOG, but that was a long time ago.
That's exactly what I thought when he said he was building Heaven and Hell.
It's on Steam currently, as of this moment anyway.
@@Moraenil amazing! Thank you so much for telling me, I know what I’m spending my entertainment money on this month!
It's kind of a shame Lucasarts died off to a degree, they did some pretty great stuff. Say what you want about his writing, but Mr. Lucas knew where to put his money when it comes to emerging technology
Lucasfilm made a kind of city-planning game?!?! Oh _hell yeah_
Seeing as you can now focus on individual NPCs, that gives me an idea. How about a video where you make 1 NPC the city's MVP & only change the city according to their complaints/requests? Could make for a wacky video.
Tbh i like that they kept the UI rlly similar, i've never liked when new gens of older games suddenly have stuff in completely different locations😅
As a Milo that just went through a breakup- hearing Kevin say "You deserved better" Just made everything feel ok again 💚💚
It's a sign!
As someone that lives in a third world country, having class divisions dictated by which part of the city you live in feels like home. Thanks for the nostalgia Kevin!
Just came back after my first week living in college. Feels good to come back to Kevin torturing even more innocent people
It's always fun to see Kevin make people suffer (and go buy a slow cooker, you have no idea yet how nice it is to come back to a simple stew after a long day of lectures and tutorials, yours faithfully, a recent graduate)
I also just had my first week in university! Glad to watch Kevin torturing people as always
To go along with the person that told you to buy a slow cooker, get potatoes! Potato soup is cheap and fucking delicious.
Kevin got a lot of us through college, truly a rite of passage lol. Even 3 years after graduation, I continue my college tradition of watching him while I eat dinner, after a long day and finishing all my work. No better way to unwind.
Let's Game It Out And CallMeKevin Both Uploaded Cities Skylines II videos within 3 minutes of each other. Cannot wait to watch both 🍿
and ambiguousamphibian!
@@madelame_ and the spiffing brit and rtgame. Paradox must be doing an advertising push
the spiffing brit also released a video on this game as well
I like that they both independently decided to dump sewage on their citizens.
“Hey there friends, how’s it goin’, my name is Kevin.”
*”WelcomebacktoLetsgameitout.”*
Let’s all appreciate Genius Mayor Kevin’s decision to bring back the Poop Canyon into another awesome Skylines video.
And this time the Poop Canyon actually worked as intented. Good to know that Mayor Kevin learns from his past failures and refuses to give up on a good idea, no matter how potencially fatal it could be for everyone involved (everyone but the Mayor, of course).
I didn't even know there was a City Skylines 2. Kevin is a marketing genius.
Must live under a rock lol or not really like cities

I’ve seen a game exploiter play this but I think Kevin is teaching the developers far more about their game than any exploiter 😂
Kevin just making IRL US cities, with their Gated communities and hoods.
Every other TH-camr was only allowed to reach Grand Village, but this guy went above and beyond
I love the heaven and hell idea, and the poop canyon idea, and I have a suggestion. What do you think of making canals all throughout hell that the poop flows through.

the gradual increase in jaunty music just adds an extra level of chaos. Perfection.
I would gladly live in any city that Kevin creates, even if it happens to be the literal underworld
I appreciate Kevin trying to hide it, but the framerate issues are incredibly noticeable. Still looks fun though.
Kevin made a typical plot for Dystopian/Scifi Movies where rich and poor are devided. 😂
It’s almost like class divides are a real thing that sci-fi is trying to help keep basic awareness of lest we rescind all our basic human rights to billionaires…again.
“Spent way more time and money than I intended. But I think the traffic is fixed.” Way too real
Cities Skylines two feels like a rebirth, a refresh to the franchise and the whole gaming world. Absolutely perfect game, no bugs, no lacking content, everything is amazing.
Was hoping you'd do a video of this, love your city skylines videos ❤️
Saw RT post city skylines video same time and got excited thinking this was a collab. Miss the Irish lads
This game has more jagged edges than Mt Everest
Kevin pulling from the industrial revolution where the rich people live up wind from industry, leaving the working classes to suffer from pollution
Despite it all, Hell is still more pedestrian-friendly than some real-life cities.

Incredible road layouts. City planners should watch this video
No.
@@decpression Yes.

I remember city builder games looking like that when i was young.. Shouldn't it have better graphics?
You remember it like that because of nostalgia
19:54,
Welcome to Chicago, or as the sane locals call it, "Chiraq."
Kevin basically recreated the oblongs.
And the first name he reads is Milo!
6:52 "We need stupid workers. We need employees with lower education. And since i don't count." ROFL. I lost it at that sentence.
I just love how others were allowed to go only to level 4 (grand village), meanwhile, Kevin does whatever he wants. :D
Kevin basically created the movie Elysium. The poor stay in one area and get nothing and get treated like crap while the rich stay in a different area, get amazing living, and these magical devices that cure all diseases. I love your maniacal demeanor Kevin. Appreciate your content.
Kevin, why are you so great? Your videos are usually the sole reason I go back to replay games i havent touched in ages. Ty!
An entire game spawned in just for kevin to create chaos. I like this timeline
We citizens of planet Earth are incredibly lucky that video games exist, imagine if they didn't and Kevin had to find something in the real world to do
It’s always a good day when Kevin posts
many less good days now than we had a year ago
This just makes me realize Kevin would be perfect for a painting show
Dang, the game looks really really laggy right from the beginning. Imagine when you start building crazy stuff.

I can only assume that's from someone who didn't happen to live in the house that suddenly got a shitton of sewage poured on top of it...
It’s crazy how both Josh from let’s game it out and Kevin posted City skyline II videos at the same time
Everybody who has early access has to post at roughly the same time
There seems to have been a bunch of others as well.
Love paradox's games. Very happy they sponsored you. Keep giving Kevin money!
I never knew Kevin was a Midgar city planning genius but here we are
Hell is London's half-done ulez extension making it impossible to use a car without improving any public transport connections, so Kevin is spot on
"Cars aren't allowed into Hell." Honestly, that's an improvement.

looks like cs1 but with way more aliasing

Why does the game look like it was made in the early 2000s...
Trying to relate to its players
the european urge to fix trafic by just adding more and more roundabouts
Are the optimizations really that bad or are you playing on GTX 480? That 10 FPS gameplay looks aweful.
"Cars aren't allowed into Hell"
Great so even in heaven we can't escape traffic
did you plays this on a toaster is it the game itself that's such low quality
