So the truth is I didn’t care much for Frostpunk 1. Just seemed like a survival city builder with some story elements. I can see why people like it but it didnt exactly wow me.

Frostpunk 2 seems different, though—the grander scale and apparent focus on politics really intrigue me.

I enjoy games like Victoria 3, Suzerain, etc. Does it scratch a similar itch? Or is the political arena much less impactful?

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.

the politics were very boring and the city building just didn't feel as good as the first.

Edit: also the UI was absolutely horrendous.
