The Ultimate City Showdown: Blissbay, Cahaya or Dowon?

What is your favourite city? Where do you make most of your saves? I love Blissbay above everything because irl I live in a centric, busy city like Dowon and I guess I love how wide the streets are in Blissbay, how relaxing walking around feels, and of course I love the beach! It just feels like the pace of life in Blissbay is more chill, if that makes sense?

What about you?

I have a soft spot for Cahaya which is the first one I played - it’s great for ‘rags to riches’ gameplay. I love the visual contrast between each half of the city. Other things I like about it are the underwater visuals, sailing boats, and the deserted island.

Cahaya is my second favourite! It feels very relaxing too, and yet so full of life.

I must confess even though I have always been a Blissbay girly, Cahaya enamored me so bad I had to vote for it!!!

No love for Dowon I see… I like Dowon because the layout is more interesting than Bliss Bay (though also more confusing to navigate), and the Korean-style architecture and decor feel unique and refreshing. But all the cities are gorgeous in their own way.

A bit unfair to Cahaya as it’s absolutely stunning and I love it… But Bliss Bay’s actual schoolyard for kids to play with friends, combined with IMHO better pre-generated families and bigger population, and more lots (I think), makes it a more interesting town overall.

But Cahaya is a close second. If they made it a bit bigger, and better designed (to accommodate larger families) pre-build houses/lots, it would probably take the lead for me. Like if we could edit the entire premise, changing the houses, and the families (detailed editing would be required) ? That would rule. Technically you could, but you’d have to redo it each time you want to start a new game.

Dowon is indeed far behind the other two. Too urban for my taste, has a few nice location but unless you want to play a small family or alone (or with a partner but no kids), IMHO it’s not that interesting. To each their own !

Voted for Bliss Bay but actually could not really decide between Cahaya and Bliss Bay. As it has been stated Bliss Bay kind of has both a bigger city and still a beach and more green areas then Dowon, but Cahaya really has his own charm. I have active save files in Bliss Bay and Cahaya but Dowon somehow never really catched me entirely.

As @Samuriko I also see the benefit that Bliss Bay has a real school, hospital, courthouse (even though currently only partly functional). If they would add this to Cahaya - even if a very rural version of it - it would probably make Cahaya my favorite.

Adding a schoolyard for kids (at least until elementary is finished - as it was stated that there was no real school in Cahaya, which for mean means elementary only) would help a lot with kids making friends and for us the players getting to know those kids. Small little details like this matters imho.

Dowon is great, I love the realistic seasons. Cahaya is my second city.

Blissbay is top city for me but Dowon is very cool too! I like traveling here and dancing with Koreans in disco club :grin: Cahaya is cool but im more big cities person than island’s

I love Bliss Bay, I adore the two houses on Beachfront Drive, I built terraces with sea views.
I also really like Cahaya.
Dowon is my last favorite.
