Europa 1400 Gold patch?

[BlogApostille]

This game was such a clear disappointment for me because I started playing it for the reason that I had played The Guild 2 and the bugs made it simply unplayable. I had thought that Europa 1400 Gold would be an aged yet completed game because it has been 5 years since its release in 2002.

I was absolutely wrong. For all its charm, the game was patched with a Beta 3 patch, and I am guessing that the "AddOn" aka GOLD edition was built with this fixes from this patch already in the game. I am not sure if it is even possible to fix these bugs anymore. It is very disappointing and sad that it has come to this over issues in which both games have been criticized for having bugs that could have been fixed by any intermediate programmer with moderate intelligence. "Intermediate Programmer" and "Moderate Intelligence" are both words I take directly from the community, and there is pages of complaints to Jowood that are all ignored. If that is not enough; to continuously make these mistakes in every single release, across multiple genres such as Gothic 3 patches, and both Europa 1400 Gold & The Guild 2, how can one not worry about the future of the strategy gaming industry
