Hmm.
I’m not sure I’m feelin it.

I'd like to see some previews before I commit. If they carry over the mechanics of the original game that's great. I like the idea of 3D including multistory buildings. Adding some new features like they mention on the product page is good too. What I don't want is for the devs to "dumb down" the gameplay to broaden the appeal.

I sure do like the graphics

Graphics look freaking amazing.

Hello fellow architects.
The devs of Prison Architect 2 here, to provide a bit more insight and some additional cool info bits related to the topic of this week’s Prison Architect Academy video…

There follows a long article with pictures.

Thanks to Hrothgar for letting me know that I had misspelled "Architect" in the topic subject. It would play havoc with folks searching for it later on. When I started this thread I didn't do what I usually do, which is to copy the subject/topic title into the body so I can spell check it .

I appreciate anyone taking the time to point out misspellings to me, it benefits the forum. However, when it comes to my taste in games...

After careful consideration, we have made the decision to delay the release of Prison Architect 2 to 7 May 2024. While we are already confident in the game, this extra time will enable us to fix more bugs and further optimize the game for all platforms. Although sticking to the original launch date was an option, we feel that taking this additional time is necessary to ensure that we offer you a smoother experience from day one.

There is the usual article accompanying the above video which is worth reading. And in the article I saw this, which is pretty cool compared to the first game:

The addition of bunk beds and shared cells also means that players can group friends together, or use the Cell Transfer feature to separate others not getting along.
