Cities: Skylines II / Is it worth buying?

I mean, is it worth even with huge performance issues? My answer is yes, but with a condition. Here’s the reason why:
 
But first, let’s go back where everything started.
9 years ago, Cities: Skylines was released to the public. As any other game, this one had performance issues and bugs, as well as glitches that made the game unplayable for some users. However, over time Colossal Order (Developer of CS) were working on patches & updating frequently to stabilize the game. This is what’s happening to the sequel.
 
Many will say the game looks unfinished, and it’s sort of true from my perspective, but looking from another view, it is packed with new features that they did not add in the first game and, you can see that the developers worked hard on every aspect to make the game super realistic. Next up is the graphics, they are literally astonishing. Sadly, as the game is currently unstable, setting the graphics to high will end up to an assured game crash. But I managed to take some photos!
 
So, should you buy this game? If you have a powerful PC, then yes. I definitely recommend as you’ll have good FPS (Frames Per Second) most of the time. [Got 70 FPS starting as a small town, 40 FPS growing as a city], and others who recommended the game too said they got up to 142 FPS! On the other side, if your PC has trouble high-performance games then I do not recommend, as it would be unplayable. Definitely a total waste of money.
 
If you’re planning to buy the game, you might want to first disable some settings that makes your game lag, so here’s a link of Paradox’s recommendations. However, if it’s not really helping, then I recommend going to YouTube and looking for a helpful video.
