Not really, the first one was better in pretty much every single regard.

I haven't really been following because the first was just beyond me...how did they fuck up part 2?

They released the game early access, so everyone was expecting a perfect game from the start because of how much development went into 1. Honestly, while 2 had issues, the game engine is much better than 1, they just needed to bake it more, like several years more, before releasing it hot off the heels of 1.

The problem was not only the state they released it. It was the price they wanted for it. 50€ for a game in alpha ?

Man that's been the case with these sequels to games I really loved. Happened to Cities Skylines as well, and at first it seemed like that's happened with Helldivers but it turns out it was so good it just ruined the servers.
