The big difference between any Sim City game and Cities Skylines is Cities Skylines has an extremely in-depth traffic simulation that actually punishes bad road design and encourages non-car modes of transit. Meanwhile Sim City always made nods to traffic, it never bothered with actual per person routing where you can focus on tweaking a single intersection for hours trying to get it to flow nicely

One thing SimCity (except 2013) has is much better city management system. In C:S it feels almost trivial compared to SimCity.
Honestly I kinda prefer that. I always found SimCity too difficult to progress in for my taste
Call of duty: first person shooter
Doom 1993: first person shooter
They are essentially the same game!
