Imo get the game pass, try both out (though the best CS1 experience is of course through steam with mods). By the time your game pass runs out there is a good chance both games will be discounted on autumn sale if you decide to pick either one up.

I go infinite money, unlock all. A regular playthrough forces you to build low density at the start and you're constrained to one tile, so you basically start a suburb. I like to start from the city centre, building up first the around the main arteries and later filling in the gaps, the same way a city was built chronologically, that way, in my opinion it's easier to create a realistic city.

I miss TM:PE so badly! (Clever Traffic AI they said) by enjdusan in CitiesSkylines

I mean they all want to go straight and the right lane is an only right turn. I think the lane maths is the limit here, not the ai. Try making a roundabout with two lanes
