The Settlers® : Rise of an Empire - History Edition

This game doesn't work properly on more contemporary systems. My system isn't great, but it more than suffices to exceed the requirements listed for such an old game and yet the reality is that this "port" is a cheap mockery which is not functional or "ported" over to be properly functional on modern systems at all. It's outlandish to charge a price for a malfunctional product which isn't even a faithful port and which doesn't run properly. Additionally, it REQUIRES an Ubisoft Uplay account to even launch, but even when you do launch it you'll likely be met with a plethora of graphical errors regardless of the settings you choose. I'm not sure how modern gaming has regressed in its consumer practices to such an extent that even when they try to sell an old product, the "updated version" still ends up being strictly worse and has no care put into it at all, like it's held by bolts and glue somehow, despite the fact that we are decades ahead of when this game was first released. This was clearly a cashgrab divested from the original spirit of the studio behind its creation... zero effort put into ensuring that it was ported over properly.

Great game. loved it as a child and now years later older.

Played this game over 15 years ago, still looks amazing and plays beautifully. I am playing on Linux (KDE Neon) and just needed to run the Ubisoft Installer with Wine (as suggested on Proton DB.) Plays flawlessly otherwise.

Very fun

GREAT GAME

Best settlers game!
