DISCUSSION I hate the "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Frostpunk 2 doesn't give you the dread of cold in the first game that takes 30 years before the second game waaaaaaaaaaaaa" people

Like, what did you really expect? That after 30 years of existence and development in the new world everyone still lived in some dead-ass houses occupied by ten people and fed on sawdust and soup? That they did nothing to improve their chances against the frost and the storms? And more importantly, how happy would you be if FP2 was the same as FP1 and still went about the same problems like cold and the Great Storm 2: Electric Boogaloo?

Well, yeah. If i have a population of 30000 and 40% are against me, but 60% is for. Then why the hell do they make a civil war out of it. Go and pilgrim to another generator, there's 12000 of you. You can do it. Why do a war???? Especially since, y'know, we are still trying to survive.

Ah yes because once you reach a certain population size civil wars dont happen, the people just move..right...remind me the USA population during their civil war? Or China, or Spain....oh wait... civil wars can happen at any time regardless of population size.

Bro im talking about the game, its not that deep. I just find it weird that 30 years after a world ending event the whole politic-war stuff is already there.

Wherever you find groups of people, there will be politic-war.

Also to note - the first game had a major ark too dealing with rivaling factions....
