PC Building Simulator 2 sets a new benchmark for simulation games. The attention to detail, the ease of play, the presentation – everything is second to none, and we can’t get enough. Even if you’ve never stared into the insides of a PC before, if you’re intrigued by the idea of tinkering with components, you owe it to yourself to give it a go. Just be sure to set yourself plenty of time aside, because you won’t be able to drag yourself away.
The graphics, building options and PC building itself are improved. Spraying, stickering, water cooling have been added. Tuning has improved, and so has the design of your computer store. Overall, PC Building Simulator 2 is a very well-rounded and expanded game compared to the first one.
The game is designed to be a crash course for its subject activity, and it bridges the gap between interactive experience and tech manual with a rudimentary glimpse at the inner workings of gaming PCs and the well-known brands that fuel them 1. The game is also a great way to learn about the mechanics of computers, as it introduces you to components like thermal paste and gives you the opportunity to apply the critical element .The game has been updated to offer new customization options and liquid cooling, and it’s way too easy to lose track of time while playing it . However, the game’s biggest drawback is that everything is way too easy, and if you’re looking for any sort of challenge, you won’t find one .Overall, PC Building Simulator 2 is a well-rounded and expanded game compared to the first one, and it’s a great way to learn about the inner workings of gaming PCs
This game is really incredible, the free mode is very interesting and makes it easy to compare the different components, as for the career mode, I also find it very good, there are different types of missions that cover everything you could want to do on a computer. In my opinion, the graphics are just right. Updates aren't very frequent, but they do add new parts that let you try out all the different combinations, as well as themes to embellish your workshop. As for game parameters, you can modify key combinations, and there's controller support. I highly recommend it.
You already know if you fancy the idea of PC Building Simulator 2 by the title. What you do here is build, tweak and repair PCs and it’s represented well. However, it’s dry work and people craving an adrenaline high aren’t going to find it spraypainting cases and reseating RAM. A dry, but no less impressive, work sim.
It's safe to say that Spiral House knocked it out of the park with PC Building Simulator 2. They've taken an already proven successful franchise and doused it in some of the best improvements we've ever seen in a game. Between the freshly added storefront and all of the new features, it's well worth the $24.99 price tag.
This game is jam packed filled with content and is a terrific sim if you're keen on those types of games. It's also a great learning tool for those who are looking to get into PC building or those who just love PC building already.
Hands down it is a great time killer. I am thinking about to quit my marketing manager job just to open up a custom PC build shop. I am that much into it.
Everyone loves to try different builds, try new layouts or simply to try your next build virtually in advance you have to give a chance to this game.
I had fun for a bit - but it had very little in the way of longevity for me, for a few reasons.
It's got no depth, it turns into a clicking simulator, water-cooling a GPU is a good example of this, you just click on the highlighted tools and components until it's done, you can't even do it in a different order it's entirely driven by checklist.
When you do get jobs that require some creativity you get hamstrung by the weird "re-install customer components" status. Essentially - you can only replace components in the machine on a hidden whitelist, everything else needs to remain in the machine and it won't let you complete the job otherwise. Which is hugely annoying if you're trying to find a way to achieve a tricky objective, find a solution that's in budget then get shot down by this mechanic. I know this doesn't sound too bad, but for me it was the uninstall moment.
As a counterpoint, the graphics are excellent and it's fun to build pc's for a while.
its the same as previous game. Nothing much changes except having unskipable tutorials being thown at you 24/7. LET ME PLAY, I KNOW HOW TO DO IT. + bugs. It should really be called tutorial simulator. Its really frustrating. Also its only on Epic so... overall disapointing. 4.5//10
Lacks the innovation of the 1st, while maintaining most of the bugs and issues. Career mode is a lackluster, and most jobs entail "painting" or putting "stickers" on a PC, which is ridiculous. Graphics have improved a bit, but let us be honest, nobody really cares about a 200 pixel difference when the game ****.
A pity the game creator sold it to THE WORST game company around--rivalled only by EA.
TLDR; **** game, avoid.
No mod support, and when I submitted a ticket, this was their answer: "We're sorry to hear that you're experiencing some issues with your game. Upon checking, you may need to reject the job or submit a bug report"
