the game itself is fun and i honestly like it a lot HOWEVER if it were published under any other publisher it would be 10000000000 times better every single time i attempt to launch the game i have to spend so much time trying to troubleshoot the ubisoft connect launcher because it is complete and utter garbage i dont understand how they have managed to botch what used to be uplay even further but jesus christ just attempting to get into the game is genuinely the worst experiences i have ever had maybe this is just the experience ubisoft intended though: have a publisher sale where genuinely good games such as this are on sale, force players to install your absolutely terrible launcher because wahwah DRM!!!!!, game never launches, player gets screwed out of money they thought they were able to find value in thanks ubisoft

Great game the only thing that ruins it is that awful ubisoft launcher, can't seem to play the game any more on day 2. Says another account of mine owns the game (likely when I used to play it on game pass but now own it on steam). Then I sign in to the account it suggests and wants an activation code that I don't have on steam. Urg Ubisoft you are killing your games with these silly launchers!

I finally reach 1000+ hours playing, and it's not hard to guess that this game is really be my comfort game. I didn't expect much when I bought this but I can say it is worth it. While I'm not really play many games of similar genre before, this one is by far the best I've played. Recommended.

The game is very fun once you actually get to play it. My wife and I each bought it to play together. Let me save the approx. 40-50 minutes it took us to get started. 1. You (and your friends) will need an Ubisoft Connect account to play. Ideally sign up for this first on your browser. 2. If you are playing with friends, once you have created your accounts, add them via the browser page. Click on your account at the top right of the page and navigate to friends, and "add friend". 3. Go into your steam library to launch the game. You will likely hit a screen where you need an "activation code". If you google this, it will tell you to find a "cd key" option in the steam menu for the game, you likely won't. In this case, simply close the activation key screen as well as steam. Reopen steam, try to launch again, and it should just run without asking again for the key. 4. Once you go to play a game with a friend, you will be tempted to add them to game through their steam ID (this is an option). It will likely NOT work. Instead, add your friend to game via their Ubisoft account which should also show. If their Ubisoft account is not showing, one of you likely has an issue with the Ubisoft connect app and will need to reset it first. 5. Before playing with friends, I recommend you try the first 2 campaign missions. The tutorial system won't be great, so I also recommend watching a youtube video by RepublicOfPlay titled "The Essential Guide to Anno 1800 - Anno 1800 Beginner Guide". This will get you up to speed so you aren't so confused. Now you should be in good shape to play! We are still quite early in the game but the graphics are nice and the game requires some thinking, but not in an overly taxing 400 clicks per minute way. Overall we are having a good time. Enjoy.

Good game. The problem is Ubisoft. If someone could come along and buy out Ubisoft, and make them NOT corrupted, not easily hack-able, and also have a better philosophy around the Community and how to create lobbies for gamers to join to play with one another, that'd be awesome. Until then, F Ubisoft.
