Surface Laptop 2 - Cities Skylines?

Hi.

I've had my SL2 for a while now, go it for uni and love it.

Have realised it might not be a gaming laptop though.

I just want to know if you guys think I can run Cities Skylines on my SL2.

It an i5, 8GB and 256GB.

I've heard random things either way with most saying it will run slow.

I come from a chromebook so don't know much about PC's at all [ trying to learn

]

I wouldn't normally ask but STEAM are offering it for £8.

I have it on my PS4 but to have in on my laptop would be amazing.

Do you have any ideas???

Thanks for your time in advance, all the best, ste.

Thanks so much macro!

I'm going to get it.

I need another distraction from my essays at uni lol

Goodbye dissertation in year 3!

Thanks again, all the best, ste

I am hovering, just downloaded steam, do you know of any video? I've searched youtube for an i5 vid but not much luck. Maybe somewhere else?

I could rely on my PS4, I just wish I had imagined I would have found a game on the PC like this.

It's just something that never crossed my mind.

The surface laptop 2 i5, 8GB is perfect for uni.

I just want something to distract me.

Cos I work too hard :/ lol

I've read around and decided against it. PS4 for the future I guess.

IT would take me away from work too much.

Sad but probably for the best.

Thanks for all input, appreciate it, ste.

Thanks Hellsmk2 will check that out now.

I think the big problem with the i5 sl2 is the onboard graphics. I can't from a Chromebook so this is all a bit new.

Big fan of Windows now.

You learn though don't you

I think any game will honestly take me away from essays and stuff. I have chess.com pinned to my bookmarks at the top. Bad move. I get nothing done with that there so I'm gonna have to think about it.

Thanks to all!

All the best, ste.
