LOL... yeah I bought a new high spec laptop just to play that game smoothly... by smoothly it was still slow as fuck...
My mate got into it much later and was telling me he liked some of the mechanics such as diplomacy, pity they didn't complete one continent and release it... the game would have been much better if they slowly added the other continents rather than dumping everything half-finished and buggy...

Well, Sigil didn't want to release it. Microsoft was their publisher and had finally had enough of Brad's shit and forced it out the door. The game easily could have been a pretty polished deal at release had they stuck to some sort of project plan during development. The history of Sigil in general is a pretty interesting cautionary tale on how to torpedo a company, right up to the point where the entire staff is laid off in the parking lot without the CEO even present. It is worth a read for sure.
