Play co-op and watch player one get 150,000+ points(!) and then get a nice 2,000.
The co-op mode is the equivalent of watching somebody take pretty much all of your dinner and then leaving you with meaningless parts of each food to eat (crumbs!). Not satisfying to be player 2 ☹️
P.S. Also crashed on my PS5 5 times in one day ☹️☹️
Edit: Beat it and now the game has crashed a total of 15 times.

Management sims are one of my favorite genres, but for some reason I didn’t have any fun with this. I read some reviews of two point hospital and I came to the conclusion that there’s not enough depth to it? You also have to wait a bit until you unlock the training rooms and research points but it still wasn’t enough. I wanted to continue playing but it felt like I was just going through the motions. It doesn’t really feel like there’s that much for you to do and it gets repetitive very quick.
The Xbox One version (and the game in general) has a lot of little glitches to it too. Every time I get my paycheck, the game freezes for 5+ seconds, sometimes it just does that when I don’t earn my paycheck. One time when I loaded it up it was pretty much happening constantly for 5 minutes. When I get my end of the year overview awards I can’t move the analog stick over to get the fleshed out review instead of the one page version. It takes almost a minute every time for me to be able to move the analog stick to the ‘next’ button. Every. Single. Time. Items also get invalidated consistently for no reason, so I have to pick them up and drop them for them to reset - this can also happen even after it let me place an item I had a feeling might cause an issue. Also, when you’re building a room for the first time, if you misplace one item that invalidates another one, you basically have to rebuild the room over, since you can’t sell/get rid of anything while in that mode, and if something is invalidated, you cannot get out of that mode without restarting the whole room over. Just a lot of quality of life issues and glitches that really hampered my already un-fun experience.
In summary, Two Point Campus felt very repetitive for me, which didn’t really stimulate my brain as much as a management sim/sim game like Let’s Build a Zoo or The Sims would. You basically learn everything you need in the first college and that’s the majority of the game already. Everything else you learn is just extra fodder and doesn’t drastically change the game. It’s just place the necessary classrooms, a bathroom & shower room, a few dormitories and then start the year and gradually add more of the same stuff & libraries, private tuition rooms and student unions for each college. I was really excited to play this game, but (personally) it doesn’t have enough of an engaging gameplay loop for me to enjoy it.

I am just so done with this. Anyone who knows Coffee Talk well enough knows that you have to pretty much master it to get the complete ending, and episode 2 makes that a chore. And that is a severe understatement. I have replayed this SO MANY TIMES. And I still technically didn’t get the Cat Shelter Ending. It takes at least 40 minutes to replay every single time. I’ve finished all the story arcs and gotten every single other achievement. I’ve done all the things for the phases but I think in the wrong order?? So I’d have to do that all over again, but who knows if it would actually work? I really loved this game, but trying to get the true ending ruined it for me. This is infuriating. It’s just way too much to do and I’ve done EVERYTHING. But I did it in the wrong order. There was no indication from the game either. I don’t get why it needs to be this complicated. Absolutely ruined the game for me. I basically did it, I don’t care I’m counting it as mastered. Not worth wasting my time on this anymore at this point as I’ve seen everything!

Look, it’s rough around the edges, yes, but it’s just so much fun. I got to date HANGMAN ADAM PAGE IN THIS GAME. (Yes he did leave me for Thunder Rosa, but we’ll ignore that part). I really love how they handled Road to the Elite, it’s not too long to beat (which is refreshing compared to how long and dragged out WWE My Rise is) and it has some slice of life/management elements and it’s just so much fun! Learning about all the different food staples at the different restaurants, going on a date with Hangman Adam Page at said restaurant, getting booped by Kris Statlander, ya know? Is it buggy and unpolished? Yes. But did it make me somehow fall in love with AEW even more? Also yes.
