The Guild Gold Edition

Great game with some technical issues

I really love this game, it's just brilliant. All the things you can do and the overall historical feeling is just great. I've got three problems with it though, which is the reason why I'm not giving this 5 Stars: 1. The compatibility is not good. When running under Win 10, the game has a lot of graphical bugs, with some hardware it is even reported to not run at all. It won't work with two screens attached to my graphics card, which is very unfortunate, and it crashes often. In the end, I decided to install it within a Win XP virtual machine, there it runs nearly flawlessly. 2. There are quite a few bugs. Nothing gamebreaking, but it annoys me quite a lot, when, for example, I can't buy a ressource which is clearly shown in the marketplace, or my loads don't arrive where they should. 3. The AI of the masters is horrificly bad. In most cases, they don't generate profit at all, therefore you have to manage all of your facilities yourself, which is nearly impossible in the late game. All of these are rather minor issues, which is the reason I'm still giving this 4 stars, as it's a darn good game overall. I'd love to see a remake without technical problems, though.
