Missing Beyond the sword. :( Not complete.

The game might have been modern at release, but some features haven't aged well. You can NOT edit scrolling speed, and it is very slow! The maps are huge, and scrolling takes ages. Even the modders don't seem to have a fix for this. You can click the minimap though, but that gets cumbersome for me. Also the GUI isn't very optimized for higher resolutions, like 2560x1440 or above. Most of the fonts can be changed though if you dig around in the files, except city names! So when you look at the map a bit zoomed out, its very hard to read the city names, as well as what they are building and how many turns left and so on. They get a bit larger at lower resolutions of course, so if you watch a 1080p let's play on yt it might look good, but if you have a large highres monitor, GUI and text just gets blurry and looks real bad when you lower your resolution. I know I won't be able to enjoy it like this, so asking for my first refund in here. The game just shows it's age in many places, which is understandable, but something I wasn't expecting! If you don't mind stuff like this, the game probably is great so just buy it! I'm waiting for Old World instead...
