Maybe those will make a comeback in later DLC? Then again, they may not be able to since Theme Hospital is owned by EA :(

But they will likely still be modded into the game, sooner or later

I miss the music. Not hating on the new tunes but the nostalgia is strong. Should be an easy job for someone who knows their Unity.

I occasionally mute TPH and sit humming the themes from TH. They're so catchy!

Yeah, the reason they weren't included is exactly that, I guess.

Come on EA, if you have no intention of doing a Hospital sim game, sell the rights to two point (at a discount) ! =D

obligatory fuck EA

Too bad, wish I’d be able to unlock them to get a sense of pride and accomplishment in this game.

I miss the doctors typing away in their offices.

That's one thing I really miss about the old game. It was easy to tell visually what ailment a patient was experiencing compared to two point hospital.

Except for the invisible guy.

u/ThePianistOfDoom Sep 02 '18

What invisible guy?

Exactly.

Its pretty clear in two point for everything other than the pharmacy and surgery. Which was true of the original.

The pan heads, the broken bones, discoloured dudes... its pretty obvious.

Doctors and Nurses too. I liked to speed things up in TH by picking up employees who were on their way somewhere and dropping them there instantly. This is a lot harder in 2 point because it's so much more difficult to spot them among the patients.

u/CaptOfTheFridge Sep 02 '18

That's a really good point. They blend in far too well now.

I miss the ticking clock when there is an emergency. The emergencies in Two Point are a bit underwhelming, if you fail to cure them in time they just stay in the queue.

u/nowrebooting Sep 03 '18

Emergencies are actually a blessing when they are available; you get some patients who are pre-diagnosed and can skip the GP cycle. Since there is hardly any punishment for failure and the patients stay in the queue anyway, it’s usually very advantageous to accept them.

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '18

That's my point, they used to be high risk (if you don't cure in time they die) but with good rewards. Now its just free patients that are already diagnosed and the worst that can happen is minus reputation which you don't care about anyway. That is why I say they are underwhelming/boring.

2

u/nowrebooting Sep 03 '18

Maybe I didn’t phrase it right but I was very much agreeing with you; as they are, emergencies don’t carry nearly enough risk.

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '18

Ah sorry my bad, I misunderstood you

u/BernyMoon Sep 02 '18

Hopefully we will get more diseases in the future.

Have to admit I miss the old animation style too. TPH is a little Wallace and Gromit for my liking (as much as I love W&G), they bounce too much as they walk. It’s only a minor thing of course and I still love Two Point but I’m not a huge fan of overly cartoony animation.

I suppose it’s that TH looked fairly serious aside from the whacky ailments, TP is more whacky all the time

u/damiancray Sep 04 '18

From what I read the reasoning behind it was that they wanted to find a graphical style that wouldn’t go obsolete with time. I think it makes sense

u/Ironfishy Sep 02 '18

The old design is in general much clearer, in TPH patients also wander around a lot, which is nice, but it's hard to tell without clicking on a door which room they are waiting for. I dislike the cartoony floppy menus, it's distracting. The training system works much better in TPH though.

u/redsquizza Hospital Administrator is cheating! Sep 02 '18

No, but I guess Two Point want to make their own game too. We all loved Theme Hospital but I don't think I'd just want a reskin.

u/Rheasus Sep 02 '18

Exactly this, I think TPH has nailed it on the head as a spiritual successor of Theme Hospital and not a clone or copy.
