Frostpunk 2 All Endings - Best Peaceful Ending, Become Captain Ending + Evil Ending

[@UYou1Wonsh]

Peace ending is the hardest yet sets the foundation for New London transition into a nation. Both sides, tearing on the edge of civil war, were persuaded to lay down their arms and reconcile, showing people that even with different ideologies, peace can still be achieved. Lily May's mother may have died in the conflict but her will to live is strengthen as for hundreds of children who will follow the Steward's example. A true leader of New London who could've seized power or expelled factions opposed to his rule but decided to hold the city back together through words and sheer will. Securing peace is the only way for New London to thrive in the Frostlands as new settlements spread the influence of New London and it's people can look back at the civil war as a cautionary tale of what division could do to humans. I can see New London becoming a legitimate force of the Frostlands, slowly restoring the frozen British Isles into one nation, of multiple factions, under leadership of the Steward. In the end, the city did not just fall, but a new nation was born: Frostland

Difficulty of achieving different endings depends on what you did in previous chapters. I managed to get peace ending without any major problems and even got it without casualties.

[@11bitstudios]

@@refi350 Nice one!

[@neofulcrum5013]

Reconciling towards peace is a hard fought one but ensures the city will thrive.

[@UYou1Wonsh]

In the endings where Lily's mother live, she endures a life of hardship with no hope to the future. Enclave: Wants to destroy the enclaves and free her people Banishment: Takes a vow of silence or goes through thought-correction process (Faith/Machinists) But in the ending where Lily's mother died, her heart holds onto hope with dreams of becoming a scout. New London: Takes on a trade, struggles with life without her mother but is grateful that the Steward choose peace.

The music sounds like an army marching, it is very much fitting to the People Storm, surprised there's no whiteout during the civil war.

[@bernardocampos8363]

If a witheout happened during the civil war there would be almost no way to survive

[@liam4606]

I didn't even realize you can have totally different factions in your campaigns, I have entirely different ones.

[@majormaccas]

yeah it depends what you pick in the prologue when you find that relic and say it's a symbol of faith/purpose - a continuation from the split in the first game. If you haven't played, I would definitely recommend it, it's currently on sale for almost nothing on Steam!

[@thespanishinquisition4078]

I wonder if the change is anything but aesthetic. Picked Order because that was my preferred path in the 1st one, and I think the factions have the same preferrences asin the video. Dunno if they act any different.

[@majormaccas]

@@thespanishinquisition4078 I think faithkeepers and Order differ on only one of the 3 cornerstones, though I don't know about their moderate counterparts, they might differ more, but yes mostly it'll be aesthetic, depends how much you want to believe the immersion lol

[@starseeker3556]

This music has me marching to enforce the peace.

[@11bitstudios]

Damn, that was fast! these are not all endings, tho, there are still slight variations in what eventually becomes of Lily May... 🖤

[@chiru57]

Helloo, what path did the developers choose? I’m interested what those that put us in these hard choices have chosen. Also, what a great game!!!

[@ace_the_race9340]

This cant be all the bad endings. What if you banished the faithkeepers to barely built city? What if you let war consume the city? What if you let the resources dry up?

[@nadimulislamtonoy9604]

Ending dialogue isn’t as impact full as frostpunk 1.

[@ТАДАМ-ю4ж]

worst ending ever. They said just nothing

[@restwerson]

The game hasn't even released yet, lol

[@HereIComeThereYouGo]

It is. Deluxe version os available for everyone since 17th

[@conorgalvin4289]

The captain ending is just a dictatorship, even if it is run properly.

[@josephnarvaez9507]

Nostalgia from when the Storm hit.

[@vgamedude12]

that doesnt have to be a bad thing

[@Winters004]

@@vgamedude12 Maybe not now, but in the long run. The game outright warns you from the start not to rely on a single ruler after the first Captain died and the city nearly fell apart, and the Captain Ending heavily implies the same thing will happen again when the second Captain dies with no guarantee their successor will be able to salvage the situation.

[@Straxex]

and you straight up build a concentration camp lol

[@vgamedude12]

@@Winters004 maybe but you have to weigh the damage that is caused when the dictator goes away to any advantages that it may have in the present. Because at the end of the day new London succeeded well enough to where it was able to be continued. Who knows if it wouldve even gotten that far without him doing what he did?

[@manofsorrows69]

The ending is the most frustrating part of the game in my opinion How is it that the game makes you choose between bad options and makes you feel bad about it? The first game did the same thing, but they really went above and beyond in Frostpunk 2 "Woooow, of course we put survival of the city first, but WAS IT REALLY WORTH IT? Daaaaamn that girl you don't even remember is so cooked because you chose wrong!" So obnoxious, better to lose the game than to see this poop of an ending.

[@turron2]

lol I loved the ending, and yeah, it was worth it, these idiots will eat themselves if you let them, just take all the power in your own hands. It's absolutely morally and practically right thing to do.

[@mcom6859]

That is the point I believe. It is a discussion of to what extent do means justify the ends?

[@manofsorrows69]

​@@mcom6859 I wouldn't mind if it remained a discussion, but in the end they explicitly tell you that your choices were wrong, and in the video you can see that there's a "good" ending and there is a "right" choice to make, which is just lazy and obnoxious in my opinion

[@purple_1884]

Are there any alternative scenarios or survival mode? Or it's just continuation of New Home and On the Edge storyline?

[@WillyBillyGaming]

Just the one scenario and Utopia Builder (Endless mode).

[@TrollBishbaalkin]

Currently only new london scenario which is a continuation of on the edge, and it is pretty long if you dont beeline to the main goal, like 4-6 hours long. Seems everything else depends on the mod support and DLC.

[@vgamedude12]

@@TrollBishbaalkin kind of disappointing. I no life binged the game and finished in two nights

[@Arex-is]

​@WillyBillyGaming utopia isn't endless mode until you achieve the "true ending", afterwards you *then* can enable endless mode in the settings

@@Arex-is what is the true ending? captain?

[@rickkhemai1443]

who is this lily may character ?

[@magicgears934]

Is the baby that was born when you first turn on the generator

[@grandduchyoflovendara3516]

In the beginning parts of the game, the generator was off when you ascend to the mantle of leadership over the city. Once you manage to turn on the generator, the crowd cheers as a new baby is born the moment the generator goes online. She would be named Lily May, and her life would be a parallel story to the city she lives in. The decisions and outcomes made by the Steward (the player) determines what path the city and her would take.

[@Logistical]

Do you know how to unlock to endless mode? The info in the settings is very cryptic lol

[@breadman441]

Same 🙏😭

[@nolanburke3669]

You have to play the Uptopa mode until the Steward dies from either sickness or old age. Don't know if there is an exact date for it

[@Arex-is]

For me, the steward died in june 16th, 1957, but prior to this, you get a physician notice and you can choose when to end the game (either as the notice appears or later, i chose to end the game later, was only an extra 100 weeks)

[@PeteL-u1d]

There is only one true ending: Captain taking controll of the steering wheel!

[@masterhero200]

the game is so hard i cant pass for 1 hour

[@vathirus7880]

My factions were Pilgrim and Stalwart, spent like 3 hours just to get the peace ending. not as fun as Frostpunk1 but It's good survival builder game I need more

[@calebtesfaye3925]

Wait..so the other factions are only in utopia mode? That's so stupid! They were built up to be incredibly important, yet they aren't included in story mode and its only faith and order again?

[@markman11111]

in the prologue you choose whether or not New London embraced faith or order in the previous game (this guy chose faith). your starting factions are always one of those two, and a more moderate version of them, as well as faction of Frostlanders who have ideological differences with both, and then the extreme version of the opposing faction appears later. And there are differences between playthroughs. the Pilgrims who showed up to oppose my starting Stalwarts (I chose order) believed in the 3 traits Equality, Adaptability, and Tradition, whereas the Faithkeepers this guy started with also support Equality and Tradition, but instead support Progress over Adaptability. And the opposing Evolvers that showed up for him are very flavorfully different from my starting Stalwarts because they're anti-tech whereas Stalwarts are pro tech/industry, despite them sharing the Merit and Reason values.

[@susangoaway]

How exactly is that first one 'best'? And moral gaslighting doesn't work

[@alessiogiovannetti513]

It’s the best you get in a shitty situation with a lot of British

[@nsnprotea2127]

Least people die or are banished both short and long run. There is most room for the system to improve, by not removing every radical. There is least concentration of power in your hands. I don't think I can convince you it's the best ending if you don't agree with the above, but it's clearly meant as the best. Lily May is a very unsubtle way of saying that. Plus, frostpunk has always been about managing extremes when the times get rough. Holding to principles even when breaking them is beneficial. So, treating this ending as good is also in line with the general themes of the work.

[@NathanielMartin-mx2rk]

It isn’t a dictatorship (which, let’s be honest, that’s what factional dominance or the return of a captain is) and it isn’t the city burning down.

[@ЛошараМоисеев]

You can get a better ending. You can build a new home for riots, and then they will leave in peace.

Yeee, youtube is public, and as I can not watch it, I can also write my opinion about it. I've been expecting this game for so long, and I really think it's hideous to youtubers to posts endings when games are not even out. I mean, they are really just doing it for the money, for the views . Not even enjoying the game Also, the fact that you think it is good to someone to already post the endings when the game isn't even out is concerning. You're just part of the problem, part of the consumers that don't care. Just use one time and throw it away. That's lame in my opinion
