The Settlers® 7 : History Edition

I tried giving it a go after many years, and it's as bad/meh as I remember. I think it might be fine for somebody looking for a chill city builder, not so much for somebody wanting to optimize stuff/challenge themselves. I know it has some interesting mechanics further (diplomacy/economics) in the game, but if the basics are so annoying, I don't see how I'd get there. It's a mix of Settlers and Anno, and at this point, I think if you want to scratch that itch, it's either a better idea to play some old school Settlers I-IV, or Anno 1800 (or some less advanced entries in the Anno series). 1. There's no grid or building snapping. In a game where planning your production chain layout is the core gameplay, it only leads to frustration due to wasted space and inability to fit what you'd like, to a predefined space availability of the map chunks. 2. Game is awfully slow and the 150% speed does not help. If you know what you're doing, it turns into a waiting game. 3. Buildings require the road to be connected, but it's sometimes bugged or very UX-unclear, as of what you should do (how close/what angle the road should be) for it to count. Again, with no grid, very annoying -> look point …
