Cities: Skylines - Concerts (PC) Review

Concerts adds a minor update to some of Cities: Skylines' parks and city policies, both revolving around concerts, and the latter having no real visible effect in-game, only moving around some of the already rich data that goes into determining a city's success or failure. In-game concerts are nice when zoomed in to street level, but for a city-building game, this is mostly a side attraction most fans won't pay much attention to; when worrying about feeding or housing citizens, trying to manage the popularity of in-game bands tends to fall to the backburner.

Concerts also adds a few songs to a new in-game radio station. While these seem to be perfectly fine in terms of actual recording quality, most of the songs are generic and forgettable, and the style doesn't add much to the concept of building a city. Music rights can be quite pricey, and this is probably where the DLC's price tag came in, but this minor amount of content doesn't seem to justify paying much of anything.
