Even the spiritual successor Cities Skylines is getting old at this point. There's a few other city-building games that almost nail it but the devs always add in something that makes it too micro-managey like production chains.
Personally I like the production chains in Cities Skylines. I feel they add purpose to the design of the road network and handling of traffic problems. I just wish the AI was a ton better (there are a few mods that help though).
