The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

The Good

• The game is finally out and looks beautiful.
• Map edges aren’t cut off by the sky.
• Paved roads and the new house density system work well.
• The military system is deeper and more fun.
• Some buildings are now upgradeable.
• New coat of arms customization and game rules system.

The Bad

• Poor optimization and occasional crashes (even on a 4060Ti).
• Some bugs, mostly graphical.
• No restart button or displayed game seed. Solved: It's on the bottom of the ESC menu, above the game version, you can click on it to copy it to the clipboard.

The Ugly

• Many masterpieces were removed, and a new monument is paid DLC.
• Buildings like churches and taverns have fewer options; why no more whitewashed churches?
• Some design decisions look worse than in the pre-release builds.
