I got the Guild 2 Renaissance and I can't play for shit. My whole family dies of diseases when the first winter comes. Also, I have to attend to my workers all the time if I want them to do something productive, and I hate doing repetitive micromanagement like that. I feel like there are things I should learn about the game that would make it very enjoyable to play, could you help me ?
That's why wifey is staying at home and popping up kiddies, while you're working 24/7. When kids grow up they go to work too, to make gold coins for ze family.
But it's not that much fun in singleplayer. In multiplayer Guild 2 is hilarious, like a fun AD&D session
For example, there were 3 of us. Me, my friend and his girlfriend. I was mason, he had inn and she was farmer. At some moment both us became very influential in our village. But his business was declining while mine was rising. Before elections for city dungeon master finished, he finally got married (I had 3 beautiful kids by then). But he was too old to find a pretty girl and he was broke. So he married some wretched old hag who making for a living as a cutthroat...
Village economy was lying on my shoulders and I bribed the city council to elect me as new dungeon master. At first I had no special plans. But then his bitch of a wife robbed my masonry shop and took 95% of my wealth. I couldn't track her down, but my sons wounded her before she fled the village. My friend however, ended up in a dungeon where I tortured him before he agreed that he'll give me back every penny plus interest
