Collection of bugs and issues that I experience while playing the AE (more or less for my info, if anyone joins in and posts theirs, i will relay onto Steam support thread, where devs occasionaly appear) :

Campaign playthrough:
F12 printscreen through Galaxy crashed game - 3x
F7 quickload CTD appears to be fixed on the other hand..
Checkbox in Menu is preserved in all 4 settings tabs including keyboard shortcuts tab - crashed while taking screen, see pt. 1
Simple Benches reversed seating direction towards table - when printscreening F12 again CTD..
Finances tab - selecting days (yesterday, last week, etc..) says "Wybierz okres" - i get it, non-slavics have to guess..
My beautiful nice black KITTY DISAPPEARED!! (or was she poached or killed on the road?..)

I can't start the game at all. The play button greys out for a moment, that's it.
even worse here.. I cannot even get to a start button.
I get a box that states:
"This application can only run in the context of an app container."

re-installed, same message, no idea what to try...
Oh I have that , too, in case I don't start using Galaxy.
I'm having issues placing many different items in my inn. For instance, I could not place any kind of bed in the staff room. I got around this by changing my staff room to a private room, placing the beds, then switching it back, and it worked, but now the beds have the big red "requirement not met" symbol floating over them. Cat items can also not be placed in the inn. Most importantly, I can no longer proceed in the campaign because I cannot place a vedeta bed in a private room. I think they released a patch to fix this on the steam version of the game, which is great, but I didn't purchase that version. Pretty frustrating.

Edit: This is even worse than I thought. Apparently the placement of the vedeta bed is prohibited not by the room type, but by the placement of the walls in the rooms one level down in the inn. If I move/remove the walls of the room below, I can place the bed.

Yes I personally haven't reached that point yet, but i read Vedeta beds have huge space requirements, you can barely fit it in 2x2 room i heard. This will likely be addressed in the upcoming GOG patch that Steam enjoys since Friday.
Item placement in rooms will be "fixed" by devs allowing to enable or disable individual DLCs from the AE.
I know what i'll do with pets. I'm never losing a cat again.
a bit of bug hunting for my "app container" error has resulted in a discovery.

I have now tried it on 3 systems with the following results:

The first two computers are running win10 version 1607, they do NOT work. (builds 14393.1593 and 14393.2214)
The third is running win10 version 1706, this DOES work.

There may be a dependency on the which version of win10 you are running, maybe????

As a developer I keep most of my systems locked at win10pro version 1607 so this may be a show stopper for me.

What does CTD mean? "Crash To Desktop"?

kal.sze: What does CTD mean? "Crash To Desktop"?
Yes.
Tutorial bug - When Martyn tries to explain how to hire employees, I misclicked out of the dialog window to proceed with the conversation, instead i clicked into the tavern. The dialog is gone, i can't hire Tesni and i can't get any further in tutorial. Martyn won't manage all, and no other servant is availabe for hire. Tesni is nowhere to be found.
Gave this game a second try after it first crashed while placing the job board as part of the tutorial.

This time, the tutorial got stuck after finishing initial building and furnishing tasks (placing tables, benches, barrels etc) when I was expecting the first noble to arrive for plot progression.

Figured that was a lost cause, so went back to the main menu, started a carefree sandbox mode, aaaand...crash to desktop.

Outstanding...

I'm guessing the devs have abandoned this, I can't even call it a game. It's a bug riddled alpha at best. I've got no idea how they can call it an "Anniversary Edition" and fill it with DLC when the core mechanics don't work.

The most annoying thing? I'm outside of the 30 days to request a refund.

Oh, and I was trying to record gameplay via Bandicam at the same time, and the recording got corrupted too. Yay.

they hired community managers, LeaPi is present on Steam and GOG as well as i saw, and she's adamant about devs not abandoning the game, and working hard on continuous patching and support of CIAE. All we have left is wait for them to do the work.
Now the devs also started kickstarter campaign for their new game, American Circuss. Still LeaPi insists on CIAE not being done and shelved as finished done complete. Let's wait for what they have in store for us, we have no other choice (apart from uninstalling and completely forgetting about it..).

I struggle to see how a community manager can influence business direction so much.
I have installed this game but not yet tried hoping it will be fixed one day.

Neither can i see that, neither can i. when i pointed out on Steam that this is just PR damage control and i have yet to see any improvement before i swallow the sweet words of LeaPi, i was branded pesimist and nuissance. But i remain pesimist until i see real progress from the devs.
Finger crossed as the game got potential.
