IGN: The Guild 2: Venice Review
IGN writes: "When I first sat down with JoWood’s Guild Wars 2: Venice, I knew from the tutorial that I was in for a world of pain. At eight chapters of droning voice-over, I almost didn’t make it. I was absolutely giddy when I discovered the UI button that stopped the droning and allowed me to read the instructions instead.
After the tutorial, I was offered a choice of map and game mode. The game offers four different regional maps to choose from: Venice, The Centre of the Republic, Trieste, and the Republic of Venice. All the maps seem to be more or less the same size, differing primarily in geographic features like mountains, water, etc. The four game modes consist of Dynasty, Extinction, Mission and Time Limit and provide different win conditions — anything from from crushing all rival dynasties, to becoming a robber baron."
