The first installment focused on survival, as humanity stood on the brink of extinction, struggling against nature and enduring extreme cold. In contrast, the second installment appears to shift its focus, no longer emphasizing the harsh conditions of extreme cold and nature, but instead portraying humans fighting against each other. As basic survival becomes less urgent, political conflicts and power struggles among humans emerge, as often happens in reality.

It's fine. Not as good as Frostpunk 1 since the game pulls to a SUPER high level of everything and in turn removes all the interesting details from building a city. Not a bad game, just not a great on either. I will always prefer the first Frostpunk and wish they would just release more content for that one.

I'd recommend it if you like high level city builders but with the caveat that I would recommend Frostpunk 1 more.

I wish I could give this a neutral rating. It's really just "okay." Compared to the first Frostpunk, it just doesn't have the heart. As a completely separate game not considering the first, it still is just not that great. The UI is confusing, the gameplay gets stale very quickly, and I just think the story is really uninteresting. I don't feel compelled by it. The first game is one of my top 5 of all time, but even putting aside my disappointment, I don't think Frostpunk 2 is a particularly great game in its own right either. I guess I can't say I wouldn't recommend it since I'm still going to play it, but there are other city management games that are better. I definitely wouldn't recommend it if you're really excited about it specifically as a sequel to Frostpunk.
