How much content / replay value is there in Frostpunk 2 ? Can I experience most of the game in just 10hours or is there much more than that ? So in terms of scope its much grander than the first game right ? Like I can control even multiple cities and have to juggle different factions ? Is the interaction with these factions fun (for a lack of a better word?)
I heard some folks say it even goes a bit into the direction of 4x games maybe.
Any input is welcome
I might be wrong but I think that Frostpunk 1 criticizes your choices not matter what you do at the end.
I dont care that much wether the politics in Frostpunk 2 are good. I just enjoy the concept of trying to manage different political factions ingames.
Yesterday was a waste—I got nothing done.
But in the quiet I schemed and planned. My myriad Machiavellian machinations are now set in motion and soon, they shall bear fruit. I will rise above it all and claim my destiny as the god of a new world!
Thats it. Im the badguy. No more capitalism for you hexbear.
On a serious note. Yesterday was chill. Barley slept today but its ok because I got shit to do.
I played the first one for a bit and it was like a survival city builder. Is the 2nd Frostpunk more like a political sim ? If thats the case its gonna be hard to resist NOT playing it. Is it more sandboxy or story focused ? In short. Can I get a rundown how it is ?
I dont care for most city builders (like I did enjoy tropico for example) but Im not really into cities skylines stuff I think at least.
If Frostpunk 2 feels more like a politics game I would be VERY interested (the very reason why some fans of frostpunk 1 dislike game 2 might be why it could be perfect for me I guess)
FUCK. You make me feel like I need to go and play it right now but I already have so many games 
Scoop Dogg is good . I like these naming contests - feels like an actual good implementation of democracy. When I become Supreme Ruler I will take soem inspiration from this.
Good thread. I dont have time right now to check my mod subs and compare them to yours. I currently have only 33 mods installed - but Im gonna go throught the stuff you posted and see if there is anything I like.
Anything on your lists you cant live without or that greatly improves the game ?
Im feeling happy today. Hope everyone has a good day or night -wherever you are 
My corporate overlords decided I get some vacation during this time of year, it being the holidays and all that. With some free days on my hands I'm planning to mess around with a couple games.
First up is Millennia a 4X game kinda like Civ. The twist is there are different ages that go off the rails from real history—so you can get a steampunk age or one where aliens invade and stuff like that. I barely touched it when it came out but now, after 7 updates, I figure I will give it a proper try.
Then theres Songs of Conquest, an indie game with amazing pixel art that’s sorta like the old Heroes of Might and Magic games- I might play this with a friend early next year as well.
EDIT: OK im feeling a bit tired so Im just gonna play my current Crusader Kings 3 save till I go 2 bed. Happy Holidays everyone
What are the fine folks on Hexbear playing 
In which ways did you find FP2 worse ? . Cause I didnt enjoy Frostpunk 1 that much and at least on paper Frostpunk 2 looks more interesting to me. Its obviously possible that neither FP1 or FP2 are the right game for me.
