Looks exactly the same as all the other non-future Anno games, although I don't remember if your citizens disliked living next to a pig farm in 1800.

I don't remember if I ever played through a story mission or scenario in the previous games. I always just start an Endless Game, set the difficulty all the way down, with no other NPCs, and just build until I'm satisfied. Looking forward to doing the same thing here.

1800 did not have that nimby mechanic. Actually can't remember if any anno game had it ( maybe 1701 ). 1800 also did away with the separation between campaign and endless and just mooshed them together in what was one of the very few downsides of the game.

To me this one looks less like an anno and more like a contemporary Impressions city builder, but the potential is there. Fingers crossed that ubi doesn't stuff it full of anti-features.
