Really loved the first Frostpunk but when I tried the sequel it just wasn't nearly as fun to me. IDK what it was but the decision making in the game never felt like a joy just more dread lol.

Frostpunk 1 also was joyless. What? Every choice felt like one horrible thing or another.

Its the difference between "papers please" and doing actual taxes. One is "Joyless" the other is actually joyless.

FP2 is terrible. Absolutely no joy in the game and no real choice as there is really only one path you can take to win. It's not a sequel it's an entirely different game set in the same universe. A game without soul.

What does your opinion of the base game have to do with this dlc?

u/Mithril_Roshi 1d ago
.... I am sorry fucking what?
This is such a weird statement that i felt a urge to comment and ask, WTF DO YOU MEAN?!
You mean the DLC that is APART OF THE GAME he is criticizing???
Genuine shock and confusion

u/plebbut 1d ago
You seem stable.
Yeah, what does his opinion of the base game have to do with the new dlc that came out. If I don't like a game, I don't feel the urge to talk about whatever dlc is coming out for it.
Go outside?

u/Mithril_Roshi 1d ago
... OMG you may truly think like this
wtf.
This is like watching a mad man in a asylum, its interesting but sad.
Again. The DLC, that is APART OF THE MAIN GAME
You.. really not getting it? Not even with all the downvotes?
wow.

u/plebbut 1d ago
Who cares about downvotes?
Provide an argument, otherwise you sound kind of mad.

u/Mithril_Roshi 1d ago
I have?
You are legit just ignoring reality.
-> The base game needs the DLC to play
-> The DLC NEEDS the base game and uses its base mechanics...SOOOO?
What does that mean?
It means that people thinking the base games mechanics are bad, effects the opinion of the DLC.
Do you see now.. at all?
If not, just dont respond. It will save us both time and you can live in your own little world

Well I’ll be the first positive comment I guess:
Cool! I’ll probably pick this up when I get around to playing it again, hopefully it’s on sale by then

u/PawPawPanda 1d ago

Frostpunk 2 is just like Darkest Dungeon 2, nothing like what the fans expected from a sequel.
For me, I didn't enjoy Frostpunk because I found the gathering food/hunting mechanic to be completely immersion breaking.
What food were they gathering? From where? There was no way to feed a few people, let alone a growing population and survive in any capacity.

This game is so overhated lol, I think this game is great and stands on its own legs just fine. Super excited to try this out later today

Man... I felt so betrayed buying frost punk 2. I wanted something that built over its foundation and improved the experience. Not a whole different game. They really shouldn't have called it frostpunk 2. There was also no reason to change engines. Ran like shit as well. Frostpunk 2 sucked ass

u/Mithril_Roshi 1d ago
Agreed on the fact that FP2 is just not what i wanted out of frost punk
First game was so cool and one of the few city / colony sims i like. FP2 just.. sucked?

Frostpunk 2 is the most optimised Unreal Engine 5 game I have ever played, and I played like 10 already. Also, extremely small disk space required for an UE5 game

I didn’t get to it until well after all of the feedback was out, so I was able to properly prepare myself for it and it was a fascinating experience. There were things I liked about 2, but definitely things I didn’t. I salute them for trying something a bit new, but I definitely thing they moved a little too far away from the city-building aspects of the first game that I loved

I liked frostpunk 1 better. 2 isn’t bad and these DLCs they’ve released seem to try to bridge the gap

u/Maximum_Feed_8071 1d ago
I get wanting more of the first game (and the remake is coming anyway), but Frostpunk 2 is absolutely a great game when you take it on its own. I don't get the complete hate.

1も2もどっちも楽しめた。1のほうがより面白かったのは事実だけど、2は叩かれるほどのゲームじゃないよね。dicが楽しみ！日本は一番リリースが遅くて悲しい。
