Thank you for making great games, This War of Mine and especially Frostpunk are some of my favorite games of all time. I am quite excited for Frostpunk 2 and the Alters.
The societal/political element is something I really like in the first game and I'm glad its more in depth here - its something I'd like to see in more of these types of games - now imagine a political layer in a Roman themed game.
The game looks amazing. Love your playstyle of taking it slow, planning out, walking through the steps. You got me to pick up Anno 1800, which I'm very grateful for. Great game. Keep up the awesome work.
Unfortunately not, I zoom as much as you can multiple times in this video. In the next one, i zoom all the way in on the council, you can click individuals and see them, but thats as close as you get really
Haha, cheers for noticing. For all I know this was a typo on creation. Pretty sure this is the same account I have always used. But as you know it is indeed meant to be Kristaliorn. Cheers and it's good to be back.
Cheers again for bringing it to my attention Darren. I have had a look and have managed to change it. Another good thing has happened with coming back to the channel because of all the juicy new content. Cheers dude.
I finally came back to watching this channel for this. Needless to say, I missed this. I was that cryptic and edgy “REDACTED” person from the early Anno 1800 series, if anyone was wondering.
It looks amazing and seems like it's going to be a good one. With you playing both, do you recommend playing the first one or you think I'd be good jumping in this one straight away?
Im just now playing the first one. Its really good. Definitely a good spin on traditional city builders. Frostpunk 2 looks to be a completely different style. Frostpunk 1 goes on sale a lot, so i would suggest getting it if you like city builders. Its awesome. Then you can grab 2 when it comes out this summer! I believe they will both be worth playing! Hope you have a great day!!@jrjaxon
I never actually got around to playing the first Frostpunk, but watching videos I always thought it had a spectacularly good looking UI. This one seems like a step down in that regard, which is a shame since it's here I was planning to jump in myself.
Oh really? Damn I think they've universally improved the UI here. The only thing I don't like is the complete white law screen, there is a tab in there that inverts the colours to a dark mode basically, so im hoping they let you apply that yourself. But other than that, the actual world UI, the layout, tooltips etc. and integration of large moving art I think is brilliant.
Loved the first one hope to enjoy this one too! Have some minor gripes about the UI being a bit too minimalist and not feeling like a RTS game but hopefully that can be customized.
This is such a cool idea and could be so in depth you said it was just a beta, why do games keep being released like this is it solely to gain funds to pump back into the project
Yes, devs have confirmed that the main story will be much longer. The main story is broken up into 6 chapters and from what I’ve heard chapter 1 is similar length to FP1’s a new home scenario.
I keep hearing a lot of people say they really dislike this game. I honestly think a lot of these people just wanted a frostpunk one with extra shit in it, and not a new game with different features.
what is that yellow shine lines in roads ? for that i could see they don't walk anymore just use vehicles like skylines, so no more micromanagement. anyway i home this game be less forgetful the first one. i am not said that. people said.
Never. And it runs really well for me. I actually ran both Manor Lords and Frostpunk 2 at the same time and both were 60fps 😅 Specs are in the description if youre curious.
@@WhatDarrenPlays Really!? Ok then, guess it is just me. I have nearly the same specs as you except for intel as CPU. very odd. Crashed at least 5 times so far. Just into week 130 at this point.
Man i do not like this new system at all used to see people goin out working and make there own little paths in snow now magically districts show up. Where is the day and night cycle shame if this is how its gona be even in normal speed the game is to fast for my opinion :(
Its clear that they've decided to have this game on a different scale, hours are days, buildings are districts, instead of named individuals its 100's of workers at a time. It does seem quite a departure from the first one in many respects, but I think it looks like an interesting progression.
@@tiberiusgracchus2077 It's not all bad but the first game has more depth to the people and the city itself, this seems like fast forward and magically do stuff in my opinion.
Don't like where the game went with money, districts, hex unlocks, etc. The game had a great niche as a survival builder, now just looks like any other RTS with a nicer skin. Just not interested in playing command and conquer nor civilization

A knife!
NO!
Salvé Bitmarck 👋
@@Kristaliorn It's like the old days, isnt it?
@@phigu198 good times my man
Thank you! ❄
Keep up the good work 11bit. If you are pleasing Darren when it comes to strategy / city builders that says a lot.
Thank you for making great games, This War of Mine and especially Frostpunk are some of my favorite games of all time. I am quite excited for Frostpunk 2 and the Alters.
Game looks great! But the UI does not seem "Frostpunk" its a bit too clean and some menu screens is just a wall of white! it hurts the eyes.
Make child labour and brainwashing by propaganda a good way to do politics please! Onward comrades, we must survive at any cost!
When Darren starts swearing you know he's haveing a good time

You’re speaking my language
Well said Tiberius.
@@Kristaliorn Indubitably Cassius.......why are you looking at me like that?

'Several unattended children died in a brawl... Thus I have decided they may die in the mines instead.'
The storm sirens blaring when a whiteout hits is honestly quite... *chilling.*
Keep u p the amazing work I love your style of video
I watch them
I fall asleep to them
I watch them again
1:12 no America pretty much dead 😂
I've yet to mess with the first one, but it's on my list. Love watching your work, always inspiring me to try new stuff.
What a gamble, changing the game so much!
This is like the "Month of Darren," Frost Punk and Manor Lords? 😳
I know, I got the email for both on the same day and I was like... 🤪
Love the looks of this! Is it possible to zoom in more in this game? Would love to see the people on the roads, building details and such! ❤
Unfortunately not, I zoom as much as you can multiple times in this video. In the next one, i zoom all the way in on the council, you can click individuals and see them, but thats as close as you get really
I was VERY dubious, but after playing it, and getting through my first whiteout, I am absolutely converted.
First Mano Lords now Frostpunk, we are being spoiled this April!
I'm happy that you're so excited for this game Darren!
Salvé Darren, great to see you playing this and Manor Lords. Really glad you are enjoying them. This bodes very well!

Why does your account have an M at the end now? Lose the original?
Haha, cheers for noticing. For all I know this was a typo on creation. Pretty sure this is the same account I have always used. But as you know it is indeed meant to be Kristaliorn.
Cheers and it's good to be back.

Nice!
So glad your playing this. Loved your frostpunk 1 series
Good times!
This game looks so amazing! I have been very excited for this since it was announced. It would be great to see you revisit the original before release
Holy shit this game looks better than i imagined!
Omggggg, thank you for playing this game, I'm a huge fan❤
Daaaaamn son, I've been waiting for this! Especially from you Darren
OMG I didn't know there was a beta. I'll watch your video later after I play it!!
Damn did this take me back to the previous playthrough. Loved it! Looking fw to the next episode
I finally came back to watching this channel for this. Needless to say, I missed this.
I was that cryptic and edgy “REDACTED” person from the early Anno 1800 series, if anyone was wondering.
God I can’t WAIT for this game to come out! And for whatever DLC they’ll add! Do you know when it’s coming out by any chance Darren?
I know I'm supposed to be concentrating on the game but your voice lulls me into an almost meditative state haha
Hell yeah, waiting soooooooo long for part 2 🎉❤
Never even looked at these games but im excited to know more about them.
Frostpunk is so good if you like City Builders and... dire circumstances :P
It looks amazing and seems like it's going to be a good one. With you playing both, do you recommend playing the first one or you think I'd be good jumping in this one straight away?

Looks beautiful. I play the first one from time to time but I’m horrible. Still enjoy it alot though! So pumped for July so it drops!

The first one is still well worth a play. You can get it really cheap now also.
i WAS WAITING TOO DAMN LONG !!!!!!!
BUT ITS FINALLY HERE
Glad you survived the cold
@@Kristaliorn it was harsh but im here !
It's good to see that despite the changes you think its great, looking forward to it.
At 1:45 i was swiping my screen as i thought a little fly hang on to it. Took a few swipes before dimwitted me figured it out. 😵💫😵💫
Haha Loved your English accent
Game and UI look great. I'm definitely looking forward to playing it myself.
Thanks, i couldn't sleep and you showed me this master piece of boredom
awesome
It’s a gift, really
Oh im fucking pumped
Loved the first one hope to enjoy this one too! Have some minor gripes about the UI being a bit too minimalist and not feeling like a RTS game but hopefully that can be customized.
Buzzing for this one. Also anychancd of you ever doing a New Cycle lets play. Thays another amazing city building/survival game
played the first one, its really a good game. i loved it, manor lords will feed my hunger while waiting for FP2
this game does look cool
I quite like the direction they’re going in, I will definitely keep this one in mind!
Looking good
I never played the first one, but this looks so good. Think I should buy and play the first one before this one?
I think the first one is excellent, so yes! It is a different game though, maybe look it up first and see if you like the look of it!
@@WhatDarrenPlays For sure, gonna pull up your series of it tonight! Cheers.
Is that President Snow passing those laws???
I played the first one and I got curbstomped even on easy mode, but I still loved it. Should I play this one despite that?
Well if you loved it, then yeah!
Nice same big fan of the game
Btw what is your thoughts of layshara summit kingdom
Havent played it, looks cool though. Interesting idea
Very different then the first one indeed. Not sure if I like it.
WHich of your series are you most proud of? Anno one?
This is such a cool idea and could be so in depth you said it was just a beta, why do games keep being released like this is it solely to gain funds to pump back into the project
What you PC set up?
Can’t wait to play
OMG the HYPE! THE HYPE!
Will this game be longer than part 1 which was ridiculously short.
Yes, devs have confirmed that the main story will be much longer. The main story is broken up into 6 chapters and from what I’ve heard chapter 1 is similar length to FP1’s a new home scenario.
🥶🥶🥶
I keep hearing a lot of people say they really dislike this game. I honestly think a lot of these people just wanted a frostpunk one with extra shit in it, and not a new game with different features.
It doesn't have the meaningful decision making as the first game, and the story's extremely buggy, to the point of just stopping progression.
Preorder for beta access is always an absolut no go
Wish i could actually afford to play it
Huh.. flashbangs. 😂
Am here because ddrjake did his and I expected an second stream on his channel lol
what is that yellow shine lines in roads ? for that i could see they don't walk anymore just use vehicles like skylines, so no more micromanagement. anyway i home this game be less forgetful the first one. i am not said that. people said.
The yellow lines are people walking with lanterns, time moves by quite quickly, so you see the trails of the lanterns.
Coming-on
Warcraft III, best voice acting. At least in French !
Personally, I'd favour the Foragers
Thanks for this video. While I enjoyed the first one, im passing on this game.
What I really want to know is how many times the game crashed on you?
Never. And it runs really well for me. I actually ran both Manor Lords and Frostpunk 2 at the same time and both were 60fps 😅
Specs are in the description if youre curious.

Sooo civ game with snow theme???
Ummm… no?
Only critique of this game, not having control over specific building placement. Hex gaming takes away from the physical control of the game.
im not sure i like the change from the first game.
Man i do not like this new system at all used to see people goin out working and make there own little paths in snow now magically districts show up. Where is the day and night cycle shame if this is how its gona be even in normal speed the game is to fast for my opinion :(

Communal schools is better in my opinion
Is there a communist faction in the game?

so many game reviews.. and almost no genuine blind playthroughs.. :(( why ?? :D
This is a genuine blind playthrough! Although I played a tiny bit to get familiar with how to play, but only like an hour total.
@@WhatDarrenPlays oh.. i see, ill watch it when i get the chance then^^
First comment bro gimme key too
🔑
game is a HUGE disappointment compared to the first one
Not for me! But yeah that’s a real shame people aren’t into it.
Agreed. I played 104 min, and I applied for a refund. Frostpunk was so amazing. Maybe the full game will be better.
I just found frost punk a week ago and beat the game on easy. Medium kicks my butt. Im looking forward to FP2
