The scale is bigger, the games are longer, and even pretending that I know everything there is to know about Renaissance would be a pointless exercise. Playing a game like this for a few weeks is a little like playing an arcade game for 20 minutes. So a score would only really be a first impression. There’s so much depth to the game that reviewing it after only playing it for a couple of weeks doesn’t give the bigger picture. But again, it’s all part of the learning experience. It’s never totally clear what can or can’t be clicked on, which for a Guild newbie is a nightmare scenario. The biggest issue though is the game’s interface. Once I started to think slightly more literally and realised the game actually needed the right situations to be able to do something everything was that little bit more straightforward. Who’d have thought? I was thinking like a console gamer and it wasn’t working. It seems you need to send your character there before being able to buy something. Even something as simple as buying something from the market isn’t immediately obvious.

Every so often something else clicked, like how to make money from a workshop, or how to break into a building and steal what’s inside. It’s a learning curve which all games have, but this is one that’s so steep you’ll need climbing equipment to get to the top.ĭespite the issues of not really knowing what I was doing, I was strangely addicted. If you need a loan, head to the Guild and the option will open up. Want to spend the night with the wife? Well head back home and the option becomes available. It’s difficult to learn when you have some options available, but put the time in and you’ll know exactly what you can do. Depending on where you are, which building you’re in, or who you’re with these options will change. You control your characters using a simple options bar at the bottom of the screen. And once you work out how to do the basics, things start to become a bit more obvious and more fun. Or, if you fancy being a bit rougher, you can lie and cheat, steal and murder and generally be a bit of a bastard until you get where you want to be. You can choose to be a good guy, earning your way up through the political tree, running an honest family and working hard for your money. Alongside a variety of classes to choose from (which let you customise your character to a reasonable degree) the choices you make within the game will massively alter how the game treats you. So what do you get when you eventually start playing? Well, you’ll get depth that’s for sure. It’s nothing criminal but it’s a bit of a shame and just shows a lack of polish. I also had a comedy moment in a bar when a random character was walking in endless circles around a female patron. On several occasions a goods cart has been pulled through a fence, and people walk through buildings as if they’re not there. There are a few issues though, mainly with characters and scenery interacting in a strange way. Equally as impressive is the sound, especially the music which couples with the renaissance theme perfectly to give a far more atmospheric experience. Each different map also reflects its location nicely, with England, Italy and other places offering a stark contrast in visual styles. Obviously the visuals will depend on the hardware you’ve got under the hood but even at lower resolutions the worlds look nice, changing with the seasons and impressively crisp even when fully zoomed in. There’s no denying that the game environment looks and sounds good. Still, there’s no reward without effort so I dug my heels in and got cracking.

Sure you get a few tips along the way, but for someone new to the genre telling me to “get involved in politics” doesn’t help without telling me HOW to get involved. Instead of a nice hand-holding experience you get dropped into the game and told to get on with it. So what if this is your first Guild game, as it was for me? Surely the in-game tutorial that every game has nowadays will help… well… no.

You see, with being a standalone expansion to the original Guild 2, Renaissance has a limited manual which just tells you what’s new since last time round.

Gamers spend hundreds of pounds buying the latest equipment to keep up to speed, and if the early stages of Renaissance are anything to go buy they also have intelligence far beyond anything I can come up with. Games can last months, years even without anyone flinching.

PC gamers are a different breed to those who mainly use a console. As it turns out, I suspect I’m not quite cut out for PC based gaming, even if those games are actually pretty good. Most of my gaming in recent times has been console based, so the opportunity to have a detailed look at JoWood’s Guild 2 Renaissance on the PC interested me.
