I'm imagining the "Well akshually" guy as the person you're responding to.

Sure the name was "SimCity". But this is about the 2013 game, not the 1990s game. Clarity is preferred over 'Wellakshually Correctness'.

Normal people can infer context. Nobody thinks the original game came out in 2013. Everyone knows it was not a disaster.

I actually clicked on it thinking it meant the original SimCity which I adored, not realizing that was many decades ago, and expecting it to be some interesting argument that SimCity was somehow so good that it proactively ruined every city sim game that would come after it.

So it's "Wellakshually" and now the rest of us are 'not normal'?

How many other hot takes do you have to share?
