This also means we will be limiting our communication with you all until we have a timeline we feel comfortable with.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It makes sense for Paradox to be a bit wary of releasing an unfinished or buggy game, seeing how badly <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/uk\/cities-skylines-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cities: Skylines 2<\/a> was received by players, as many reported being <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/cities-skylines-2-studio-promises-performance-issues-can-and-will-be-fixed-we-want-to-assure-you-that-the-issues-are-not-deeply-rooted-in-the-games-foundation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">plagued by performance issues<\/a>.

An indefinite delay is never great, but it&apos;s especially worrying given Paradox&apos;s recent trend of digging early graves for its games.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A few months ago, developers behind The Sims competitor Life By You <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/life-sim\/former-dev-from-sunken-sims-competitor-life-by-you-alleges-the-team-had-the-rug-pulled-from-under-them-despite-outperforming-the-company-s-internal-metrics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">had &#8220;the rug pulled&#8221; from under them<\/a> after Paradox announced that the game would not be released despite being practically finished. Hours after this announcement, news came that <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/life-sim\/hours-after-cancelling-its-only-game-paradox-shutters-its-24-person-life-by-you-studio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paradox had decided to shut down the 24-person studio<\/a> responsible for Life By You&apos;s development\u2014a fate that Paradox chalked up to <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gaming-industry\/after-life-by-yous-disastrous-end-paradox-chalks-up-a-90-drop-in-operating-profit-for-q2-we-end-the-second-quarter-of-the-year-with-mixed-feelings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a 90% drop in operating profit for Q2<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I really hope that Prison Architect 2 won&apos;t follow a similar fate.

And I&apos;d love to see how smarter inmates impact the already chaotic stories. Taking time to improve the game and ensure the final output is of the highest quality possible isn&apos;t a bad thing, but these delays and changes in developers aren&apos;t exactly reassuring me that history&apos;s not repeating itself. \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/strategy\/paradox-indefinitely-delays-prison-architect-2-just-like-it-did-with-life-by-you-before-it-was-scrapped\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prison Architect 2 is delayed yet again, but this time, it could be for good.
