JoWood came to us hoping to have us be a partner for North American distribution, and they gave us copies of a ton of their European releases.

One of my jobs in QA was helping to evaluate submissions for publication. I played that game under interesting circumstances: I was in QA at Jaleco, a game studio in Colorado (branch of a Japanese company, which was a branch of a Chinese company) that was looking to become a publisher. I think IвЂ™ll just wait and hope that Guild 3 is the game IвЂ™m looking for.ДЄgreed about Guild 1 multiplayer being crash-tastic. That seems to describe what I felt about Guild 2 in general. Well, I think you answered my question anyway, trigger, thanks. It does a lot of what the original does, but feels a little more unfocused.

The Guild 2вЂ“even the Renaissance versionвЂ“introduces a lot more stuff to the gameplayвЂ¦and sometimes it just feels like feature creep. What I loved about the original is that at times it felt like a really personal, almost Sims-like game with an economic and trade system with a medieval setting. The original is sleepy German village, Pirates is sort of Venice-y, and Renaissance is kind of just Italy/France inland in general.ДЄs far as living up to the promise of the originalвЂ¦Eh. The three versions of The Guild 2 are all for sale because, ostensibly, all three are different settings. YouвЂ™ll definitely want to hunt down some of the community patches for it, though, since JoWood stopped patching it and left it in a state where as the game progressed, systems stopped working. The graphics havenвЂ™t aged well for it, but itвЂ™s a nice game. There are a lot of folks who prefer the gameplay of the original Europa 1400: The Guild.
