    If this blows your mind, your brain is cooked.

    Replace “car” with just about any limitation of the real world and it’s true. Video games don’t have to care about construction, functionality, repairs, or any of the other things that affect a city’s aesthetic.

    Racetracks in video games are more beautiful than real life, too

      It’s because of unrealistically-low amounts of parking.

      Ditto even for city-builders like Cities Skylines.
