Purchased through GG with the Saxons expansion yesterday
Downloaded KA and a number of hours later installed - didn't work - eventually found the solution to my (PhysX) problem on the Steam forum - downloaded driver and manually applied it which got it working
Played a bit and having fun going through the early tutorial stages of the campaign.
Thought I may as well download and install the Saxons add-on - an hour or so of downloading later go through the install process - doesn't work - I think (after again consulting the forums) this is due to where GG installs it to, but frustration sets in and not really knowing what I'm doing wrong give up for the time being.
Un-install Saxons - hope I'm now back to playing a clean version of the basic KA - might try again with installing Saxons when the frustration has subsided.
Why why is it so difficult to get the game to work "out of the box", why is it so difficult to add in the expansion (or from what I've heard from the forums expansions, given the problems there seems to be applying Saxons and Druids together).
I do like the subject matter and from what I've seen the style and approach of the game but I don't want to have a battle with my computer (system / files / installs / drivers) before I can battle with my computer (A.I.) !
Sorry for the rant but I really want to like this game and was going to purchase Druids as playing as the defender of the Pagan faith campaign sounds fun, like playing Merlin from Bernard Cornwells Warlord Cronicles trilogy
