Dükkanlar zinciri olan bir patron mu ya da belki o yılların en meşhur hırsızı ? Rönesans devrinde geçen ve de tabiri caizse ekmeğinizi yavaş yavaş taştaş çıkaran bir meslek erbabı olmak ister miydiniz? Dönemin içindeki bütün entrikalar ve politikalara rağmen yılmadan kendi ailenizi kurmak... İşte The Guild oyunun en kısa ve net özeti bu !

Abartı lafları bir kenara bırakacak olursak oyunumuz Rönesans devrinde geçen temelinde ekonomi yatan; ticaret ve city builder dediğimiz inşa etmeli oyundur.Yapımcı firmaları pek bilinmesede yine de çıktığı 7 yıldan beri kendisini hala oynattıran bu oyunun oyuncuya verdiği iki büyük ünsur vardır. Ticaret ve de huzur... Gelin biraz grafik ve oynanış tarzını değerlendirelim.

Kısa ve basitçe oynanışı anlatırsak oyun kuşbakışı açıya sahip ve en başında seçtiğiniz bir meslek dalından başlayarak ilerliyor ve de oyun içinde tanıştığımız hanım hanımcık bir bayanla evlenerek (Bayan karakterseniz ki oyunda mevcut, bir bey ile evlenerek) ailemizi kurup düzenimizi oturtmaya başlıyoruz.Soyağacına kadar detaylara girdiğimiz bu oyunda yavaşça ailemizi çocuklar yaparak ve torunlara sahip olarak büyütüp diğer oyuncular ile erbabı olduğumuz işleri genişleterek ticari bir rekabete giriyoruz.Seçtiğiniz haritadaki şehirlerden sürekli olarak ticari mal alışverişi yapıp, ürettiğiniz malları ya da çaldığınız eşyaları satarak geçiminizi sağlamaya ve diğer ailelerin soyağacını kurutup yoketmeye çalışıyorsunuz. Zaman dilimi turlu değil ancak normal saat dilimi 24 dakika temel alınmış olan oyunda her 24 dakika 1 yıldır. Yıllar geçtikçe karakteriniz, eşiniz, çocuklarınız ve hatta çalışanlarınız bile yaşlanıyor. Böylelikle oyun size resmen gerçek hayatta rönesans dönemindeki bir ticaret adamı olduğunuzu yaşatıyor.

Grafikleri ele alırsak bence 7 yıl önceki bir oyuna göre grafikler gerçekten güzel ve eskimemiş. Zira çoğu zaman oyunda bazen işlerinizi bırakıp güneşin doğuşuyla beraber şehrin manzarasını izlemek veya karlı bir akşamda evlerin üstündeki dumanlar eşliğinde ayın şehre vuran ışığıyla güzelleşen manzarayı izlemek gayet keyifli olabiliyor. Bir yerden sonra oyunda para ve üretim hızıyla o kadar boğuşuyorsunuz ki, bir iki dakika limana yaklaşan gemileri oyunun müthiş müzikleri eşliğinde izlemek huzur veriyor. Lafı geçmişken gerçekten oyunun müziklerini kim seçip koyduysa hepsinde insanın içine işleyen sade ve duru bir güzelliği var.

Gelelim yeni başlayanlar için pratik taktikler ve sınıf seçimlerine :) Zira oyun güzel olduğu kadar yeni başlayan ya da hiç oynamayan ama öğrenmek isteyenler için biraz karışık bir oyun. Temel olarak 4 sınıf var kısaca hepsini özetlersek:

1) Patron: Tarla işletimi,balıkçılık ve de fırıncılık gibi üretim yerleri yapabilen temel bir sınıftır
2) Craftsman: Demircilik,zırh ve silah dükkanı ve de takı üretim yeri yapabilen pahalı ve zor bir sınıftır
3) Scholar: Klise ve ayinler yapabilen ya da hastahane kurulabilen güçlü ve yorucu bir sınıftır
4) Rogue: Hırsızlıktan tutun da taverna veya korsanlığa kadar giden geniş kapsamlı ama riskli bir sınıftır

Sınıfların tek tek özelliklerini ve amaçlarını da yazmak isterdim ancak bu inceleme değil ansiklopedi olurdu zira hepsinin ayrı ayrı kendince riskli,zor,basit ve de kazançlı işleri var. Ama yeni başlayanlar için en azından oyuna alışana kadar rogue sınıfından uzak durmalarını tavsiye ederim. Çünkü oyunda siz gibi başka aile fertlerinden birisi bot da olsa peşinize adam takıp sizin suçlarınızı tutanak tutturup sizi mahkemeye verebilir ve de bunun sonucunda hapis yatmanız ya da idam bile edilebilmeniz mümkün olabiliyor. Hazır bu konulara da değinmişken oyundaki bitirme görevleri farklı olsa da temelde aynı şey yatıyor. Diğer aile fertlerinden kurtulmak... Bunun içinde rakiplerinizin peşine evinizden kiralık adam tutup izletebilir ya da daha uzun ve diplomatik olan bir yol olan politika ile devirebilirsiniz. Her şehrin kendi mahkemeleri ve siyasi sınıflarının olduğunu belirtmek isterim. Ticarette olduğu gibi politikada da en alt sınıflardan şehre hatta vereceğiniz rüşvetler ve tehditlerle ülkeye bile başkan olabiliyorsunuz. Evet oyunda rüşvetten tutun boşanmaya kadar her şey mevcut. Ayrıca tüm işi kendi ana karakterinizin de yapmasına gerek yok. Oyunun içinde evlendiğiniz şahsı rogue sınıfından seçip hırsız binaları kurarsanız tüm pis işlerinizi ona yaptırıp kendiniz şehrin sevilen ve hiç karınızın yaptığı şeylerden haberi olmayan masum bir patron edasıyla takılabiliyorsunuz. Böylelikle hem politika ve de rakip aileleri oyun içindeki eşiniz ya da çocuğunuz ile rahatsız ediyor hem de kendi dükkanınızda huzurlu işlerinizi yapabiliyorsunuz. Yani bu kadar lafın özeti şu ki oyunda rönasans devrinde hayata tutunan ve ailesine ekmek götürmek için sabah akşam çalışan bir çiftçi ya da el altından herkesi tehdit eden ve bütün yük arabalarını soyan kral bir hırsız olabiliyorsunuz. Seçim sizin ...

Gelelim eksilerine zira en büyük hatta çok ama çok büyük o kadar güncellemelere rağmen düzelmeyen bağlantı sorununa. Özellikle oyunda çok oyuncu modu yok. Aslında var ancak LAN şeklinde iki veya daha çok bilgisayar ile oynanabiliyor ancak bir ya da iki tur sonra ekranda ''Connection of Synce'' yazısı çıkıyor ve kayıttan istediğiniz kadar başlayın oyun o şekilde kalıyor. Bu hata tek oyunculu mod kısmında hiç rastlamadığım için gözünüzü pek korkutmasın ancak kardeşiniz ya da arkadaşınız ile LAN şeklinde oynayacaksanız çok fazla oynayamayacaksınız baştan haberiniz olsun. Bununla beraber ufak tefek birkaç bug dışında(gemilerin limana giremeyişi veya kahramanınızı bir yere tıkladığınızda bazen gitmemesi) pek kötü ve karalanacak bir tarafı yok.

Böyle bir oyun için belki de gereksiz uzun diyeceksiniz ancak bu oyunun temel ve görünen kısmı. Belki iki kat daha yazılacak şeyler var ancak incelememi burada bitirmek istiyorum. Herhangi bir şeyden sinirlenip sakin ve huzur dolu bir oyun arıyorsanız kesinlikle tercihimdir. Steam'deki fiyatına değer ancak sürekli indirime giren bir oyun ve de paket olarak diğer ekleri ile alınması tavsiyemdir. Strateji ve ticaret sevenler için aranan kan hepinize şimdiden iyi eğlenceler...

Oyun gereçkten çok zevkli oturup saatlerce oynayabiliyorsunuz oyundaki class sistemi bu oyunu diğer oyunlardan ayıran en büyük özelliği bana sorarsanız çok iyi bir ingilizceniz olmasına gerek yok orta seviye bir ingilizceyle biraz kurcalıyarak oynanabiliyor türk oyuncu pek yok sanırım umarım yaygınlaşır the guild 3ü sabırsızlıkla bekliyorum :)

Ignore the bad reviews if you think this game will interest you. Its not for everyone. And on top of that, its severely buggy and largely unpolished. But if you look past all that roughness, there is a true gem in here. Not many games deliver so much. You know how EA takes games and streamlines them? Well, this is the polar opposite of that. Its a rough mess, but ambitious. It may be one of the best concepts I've ever played. Consider the following story as a testament to what kind of game this is:

I started out an innkeeper in a large city in a large region. I was doing okay. I kept selling cheap food and drink in order to open a bakery nearby. The bakery was also not much, mostly baking rolls for the masses. But in time I was doing well financially and took some time off to pursue a love interest.

The same year she was pregnant and gave birth to my first born son. I was busy working and she spent less time at the bakery. Soon all her time was spent between the house and the church. Neither of us minded though. My son was of school age and we couldn't afford much. So we sent him to a guild school to study to join the family business. The same year, my wife was pregnant again, but this time with a little girl.

During this time I was able to afford to be a citizen and was granted the ability to expand my business. I quickly set up an orchard and a farm outside the gates. It was hopeful, as the supplies for both the Inn and Bakery were now completely controlled by me.

By the time my daughter was of school age, we had the assets to send her to the best school possible. My first born son, was not the most amitious child and my first born daughter had a brighter future due to our new financial situation.

I had another daughter, and another son. More of the same, I suppose, as I was too busy working at the largely successful Inn and expanding my business to fisheries and livestock.

My first born son was a disappointment. He was born when we were poor and didn't amount to much. He mostly went to church with his mother and didn't have the skills to follow in the family business. My first born daughter on the other hand, had the right schooling and was perfectly set up to join the family business. My second daughter, while successful on her own terms, didn't match the success of the first daughter. And lastly, my last born child, a boy, was quiet and simply enjoyed school.

When my first born daughter came of age to help out, she did with much ambition. While I worked the Inn, she helped with apple picking and livestock. She was maybe a bit too ambitious as she managed the workers with the attitude of a tyrant. But I was happy with the success of my business and I was running out of room to expand, so I turned to politics.

I managed to win a low level office for a very short time before getting replaced by a man who had leprosy. However, my daughter almost entirely transitioned my business empire away from me and was doing quite well. So I kept at it. I had money to spend, so I intended to use it. I began bribing people for votes, and I managed to bribe the king himself. But, I lost again.

While my daughter ran my business, and I was unsuccessful at politics, I had little to do. So for the most part, I rekindled my relationship with my aging wife. Also, my character strangely had alcohol in his inventory often, and was no stranger to drinking it on the spot or offering it to others. On a strange night, I also tried sabotaging a rival bakery by tossing an explosive in the front door. It was a mistake and didn't do much.

While I declined from power and my daughter took over, I failed to notice my last born son. He graduated from university with a doctorate. He was a scholar and was a full grown man ready to open his own line of business. Upon his graduation, he quickly started a bank and hospital in town. He worked hard, but being the business man in the family, I saw issues. Two doors down from his bank was a rival bank. Around the corner from his hospital, was a rival hospital.

He was happy working and keeping to himself, so I took it upon myself. We bombed them and ran. I went home to my wife and all was fine. Except, it wasn't.

While I was at home with my wife, my son was working late at the hospital, and my daughter was working late night at the Inn, my daughter, unfortunately lead by her father's poor example, carried out a constant barrage of attacks across the entire city for hours. Many people died, including many of my loyal bodyguards, and several buildings were so heavily damaged they couldn't be entered for fear of collapse.

The tooltip read for me - Corrupt. My entire life I was a righteous man and in a single day I ruined a lifetime of good. My daughter however, was labeled a walking nightmare. A title she wore proudly as she was a violent and cruel woman.

A day later I was summoned to trial for my crimes. And shortly after, so was my daughter. Fortunately for me, the persecuter was bad at her job and couldn't articulate my crimes well enough. With experience, I was able to convince the judges that I was not guilty. My daughter - the judge didn't even show and she walked free.

I was done, however. And now my entire business was in the hand's of my daughter and son.

A few short years later my daughter married and had a series of daughters. My son married and had sons. She spent most of her time in the Inn, acting as an innocent server as she masterminded violence. Her first born daughter stayed at home with her father, picking up the skills for crafting.

My son on the other hand built up impressive charismatic skills and began spending most of his time preaching. He opened his own Catholic church and was busy speaking to the masses. He wasn't as interested in the hospital anymore due to issues obtaining supplies needed for medicine. That was, however, one of the catalysts for what happened next.

Illness spread across the city. It struck the elderly for the most part. And the political stage was swept clean.

My son saw this as an opportunity to win an easy election and do some good for the city. So he applied for a entry level political office.

My first born daughter's daughter was also of age and opened up a tailoring shop. She worked in it night and day and was militant, like her evil mother. However, she just enjoyed working hard. She committed no crimes and often gave bonuses to her employees to reward them for putting up with her management style.

My son had only one opponent to beat for political office. But to help seal the deal, his sister showed up and gave some bribe money to the king. He won the vote and was now holding political office. First it was the Leasing Officer. Then it was the Guild Master. Then Bishop. Then he used his political power to help his sister and neice also win politcal offices.

He had charisma and the power of the people behind him. His sister was a brute with deep pockets. She kept helping him win and in return, he would give her his vote when she applied. Together, they made it to the top - Cardinal, Soverign, and my grandaughter was Consul. Together, they took down bandits, banished rivals, carried out crime and government authority hand in hand. All while I watched from my estate. My children took over the city both economically and politcally. All while in my lifetime. Not sure if I'm proud or scared.

If you made it this far, kudos for reading.

DO NOT BUY the base game, DO NOT BUY Pirates of the "Yer a pee'in seas",( LOL ) it won't matter this version works with out the "base game" because THEY ARE NOT EXPANSIONS they are all "base games" of the same game only this one is the BEST.

Bu oyun benim çok sevdiğim bir oyun.
RPG ögeleride bulunan güzel bir orta çağ hayat/iş simülatörü.

So I was this regular scholar dude who was content just running his cemetary and giving loans to people. I was planning on a pacifist run, no warring with other families, just living and let live. So, of course, this other family had to start a feud with me just as i was starting to climb the political ladder. At first I didn't really care becuase they weren't on the council at all, what threat could they be? They sent all kinds of raids against my people, I didn't care, just defended better and turned the other cheek. I was tryng to be a good Christian person about it, after all.

Then they made a mistake. I get a notification, "People are speaking badly of you." They went and insulted my wife in the middle of their sermon! Say what you want about me, but you leave my wife out of this! I wrote up some sorcerer documents and used them to falsely accuse the wife of slander and ransaking someone's property. I then used my power as Chief Magistrate to set the law to severe, and had my rhetorically skilled daughter bring the wife to court. She never stood a chance. The vote was unanimous, the punishment was death by the headsman's axe. And the executioner? He was her husband. I watched as he was forced to kill his own wife.

I thought about offing the husband, but I decided against it. He was old, too old to remarry and even if he did he wouldn't have children. His bloodline would end, his dynasty finished, and he would have to live the rest of his days cold and alone for daring to cross me. And of course, it would be only fitting that I would be free to swoop in and assume control of the churches left vacant. It was a slight mar on my humane scholar run, but after all, errare humanum est.

10/10 would abuse my power again.

Yılına göre,hatta günümüze göre kaliteli bir içeriğe sahip oyun tek sıkıntısı eski olması M&B kalitesinin 2006 versionu gibi,nasıl M&B de grafikten ziyade oyunun kendisi sizi sardıysa bu oyunda içinde aynı şey geçerli,umarım şirket Guild 3'ü daha kaliteli hale getirir ve yayınlarlar Zira Guild 3, Guild 2 den sonra denemek istediğim bir oyun.

Puan , 7.5/10

Güzel

Where do I even begin...

This game has a pretty intense learning curve. I played through the tutorial fully and it doesn't tell you everything. Even if it did, you'd probably forget some information as you soaked in more. With 15 hours in I don't think I'm super qualified for a 100% true review...but seeing as the summer sale is just over the horizion, I want to put this on your watch list


After picking a map, a game mode [more on this later] and creating your character you get thrown into the game with no handholding. Every now and again you get little Tip popups but as I found, they are either useless or too vague to understand what it's referring to.

My character is a Rogue. So I will use him as an example to explain how to game works.
At level 1 you are only allowed to have one workshop building. Choosing which level 1 workshop to build depends on what profression you want. Each class has at least 4 [some more]. So let's say as a Rogue I want to be a pickpocket. I would build a Smugglers Den. You can use the Den to hire employees to aid you in your criminal affairs.

Each building gives special abilities. The smuggler's den allows for pickpocketing and burglary. Merc camp allows for extorting hush money from criminals not employeed by you. There is a lot more abilities but Steam does have a character limit.

Once you pick a building and start making money, it's best to consider carefully what to buy. The economy in this game seems to be bipolar. Some rounds I make tons of money, then Summer comes and I make pennies. Make sure you have at least 5k in your treasury for things you will need.

If playing solo, your money should be invested in profitable ventures. Building security measures in your house or buisness is worthless on certain difficulties for the AI may not even try to steal your stuff. What is worth while is buying rights. The more civil rights you have, the more you can partake in politics and own more buildings. Buying rights is super expensive, so it's best to save.

If playing multi [which can only be done in LAN or through Virtual LAN Emulators], It's highly advisable to buy as much building protection as possible. Burning down buildings, breaking into them and kidnapping other players is a danger you will face frequently if playing with aggressive players.

In both scenarios the most important thing to focus on.....is marriage.


One of the most clunkiest, unpolished feature of this game is marriage and children. This is extremely important because the goal of the game is to continue your Dynasty. Your first character will die eventually, not escaping it, so you have to have children continue your legacy.

Courting a person sucks. No way better to put it other than....it sucks. Your courting actions have a cooldown. Kiss her? cooldown on all actions. You can not kiss then hug then compliment NO you got to pick one then wait for a cooldown.

On top of this, each action seems to have a random effect. Sometimes you get 2 hearts on the progress to marriage meter, sometimes you get -10. Now performing these actions need to be constant. As soon as the cooldown finishes immediately do it again.

But there is only one problem. You gotta do this while you are micromanaging your buisness and paying attention to the world around you. And since the world is alive [kinda like the sims] the person you are courting is also doing random crap. So she could be alseep in her house and you can't go beguile her or whatever action you choose. This would be fine if it wasn't for the fact that time lowers the marriage progress bar. So since she is sleeping, her affection for you drops. THIS IS THE WORST FLAW OF THIS GAME. I HATE COURTING PEOPLE.

Thankfully once you get married, have sex a couple times, get some children....it requires less attention. You send your children to school then apprentice ship and eventually they will either take over your buisness or start new ones. You can let them do their own thing or put them in your control group and well....control them directly.


So this is where I will go into the game modes....
Dynasty: Ends when your dynasty dies out.....I don't think there is a end date but I havent gone far enough to see
Elimination: Ends when you're the last Dynasty alive. There is settings to change the amount you are competing against
Timed: ......well.....it's timed
Mission: Meet a specific goal to win

Late gameplay depends on the mode you choose. I typically play Dynasty mode till I get bored or die cause it allows for experimentation without too much penalty. Deep into Dynasty Mode is usually just expanding expanding and you guessed it, expanding. Depending on the map you may run out of building room.

Elimination is an intense gamemode depending on the amount of opponents and difficulty. After building some empire and marrying your wife....late game becomes a battle. What can you do to make your opponent dynasties burn out? Politics is the slow and more....legal way of gaining power over your enemies. I prefer burning down buildings or killing...much more effective if done without gaurds seeing.

I havent played the other game modes to answer to their late game.


I totally advise picking this game up on sale. For 2.49, it will give you large amounts of content and fun. Yes, there is a lot of clunky issues, none game breaking, but will make you face palm at times. If you want more information just let me know I will add it to the review. Thanks for getting through this review!
