Make sure you have adjusted the graphics settings, in case they default to the minimum. If you have, and you still don't like the artstyle, then it is indeed probably not for you.

I think what was missing from the campaign was the constant struggle to get a certain buyer, each buyer had pigeonholed you in to making specific choices and designs, like what the bedroom or bathroom should be like, what colours to use. the constant back and forth of who will pay for the most.

With House Flipper 2, it's way too open-ended and it ends up just feeling like you're just a house restorer rather then some entrepreneur that swoops in on bad properties and flips them for a profit, that and money feels less important since everything in the shop seems to be brought for pennies.

I really hope in the future Frozen District can turn House Flipper 2 campaign in to feeling more like contract work and less like neighbourhood janitorial duty.

80% of my playtime has been in Sandbox mode just building stuff, at least that feels greatly improved.

Haven't tried sandbox mode yet, just barely getting started with the campaign just learn the mechanics. When in sandbox mode are the individual buyers more picky to attract and satisfy?

Well in Sandbox mode itself, there are no buyers, money or things like tiles you need to buy and plop down, everything can be made straight from the toolbar and instantaneously, just build and morph the land to your heart's content, you can end up making the lot you make your main one and sell it to with no changes to the sellers from the main game.

So, money is meaningless in sandbox mode? What's the draw to play it, then?

Fairly easy to learn but hard to master if you progress to making your own job mods, download some builds from mod.io and see what others have done. Also money will soon become meaningless in story mode after you flip your first few houses so you might as well dive into sandbox!

Totally agree, the graphics look like out of a child's colouring book, the sophisticated realism of HF1 which I liked is gone
