I want to believe, but I doubt. Even if they do, I may not bother buying it considering they have taken after EA for offering the shell game and then packaging up things inspired by modders as DLC. $256.00
The only way skylines 2 gets released is if they find a way to ramp this behavior up.
All game companies end up the same way in the end. Capitalism demands it.
It's all but confirmed now, there's an article with the logo.
Honestly I don't find the DLC behaviour that annoying with CS. You can get most of the DLCs on allkeyshop for $5 each. I've probably spent about $100 on the game and DLC and have had many hundreds of hours of gameplay for that, which compares extremely well with many games which are $60/70 and you get a 10 hour campaign max. $/hour CS comes way ahead.
