Describe your issue
Game on launch continues to crash and state it's unable to load. (On Mac)

What is your game version?
Can't launch the game, don't know. It is fully updated however.

What expansions do you have installed?
Natural Disasters, Mass Transit, Parklife, Industries

What mods are you using?
None.

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
I'm utilizing a mac computer that is fully updated. Every single time I try to launch Cities Skylines, the game crashes immediately with the computer stating "Paradox Launcher cannot be open because of a problem." I have re-downloaded, deleted everything manually, re-downloaded steam, and nothing resolves it. I was wondering what advice I could get to resolve this problem. I've attached a screenshot of what it states after the launch fails.

Can you replicate the issue? If yes, please explain how you did it.
Yes, I simply have to hit play again and it crashes.

Please delete the ~/Library/Application Support/Paradox Interactive/ folder. To see it go to the Finder, hit command-shift-G (ie Go To) and paste in ~/Library/Application Support/ . Then run the game from the PLAY Button in Steam, to reinstall the launcher.

If that does not get the launcher running, we will need these files from that same folder:
