超她媽難玩
万里黄沙卷日昏， 千军烽火动乾坤。 赫梯铁骑摧雄塞， 海寇龙帆犯帝门。 列国争锋争霸业， 诸王浴血定王尊。 青铜一夕山河碎， 残日长风吊古魂。
I desperately wanted to love this game, but it just isn't good. The UI feels way too small no matter what I do to adjust it. It feel like when you try to play a game from 30 years ago on a modern resolution, if that makes sense. Units feel incredibly tiny on the battle map, like I'm controlling grains of rice in a sandbox. The battles never feel like units going at it. Something is terribly off with the way this game plays. I can't quite put it into words, but I'm split between describing this game as either "A Total War game pretending to be a non-Total War game" OR "A non-total war game that's been modded to be a Total War game." The resource management in this is particularly off, too. I don't know if this is a glitch anyone else has experienced, but my units will sometimes arbitrarily change? I had a unit of Medjay chargers, and then they just became Lower Egyptian macemen?? Play Medieval 2 or Shogun 2. They aren't as flashy or new, but they're incredibly solid titles that play like what I want out of a Total War game.

Very underrated game. If you want a Total war game with nice clean graphics, a lot of interesting campaign mechanics and the bronze age, you will probably like this game. The biggest criticisms are the battles, just not as great as Shogun 2, but there are some new battle mechanics which are very nice, like more terrain interaction, lethality, and the very good readability (imo). I played a lot of TW Troy and this game is has much more going for it, except the fantasy stuff.
The Odyssey made me do it. Love this game!
Game has definetly improved. Getting it at a discount is a no brainer
It's an improvement on the Troy formula in almost every respect. Displomacy is improved. Faction mechanics are improved. Every faction genuinly feels and plays different. They got so much right in this. Unfortunately the "you fight somebody and now they become the vassal of somebody else" thing happens literally every war in this game and it just makes the experience extremely tedious. Unfortunate, as it's possibly the only CA product I have ever played that is actually optimised properly and runs really well.
Theres so much stuff in this game, did not think they made GREAT total war games any more. This is the latest real TW game in the series.
wish it wasnt dead and got more updates could have been a really cool rome 2 successor essentially
Came back to this because I want Total War, but... it's broken. Armies can get "stacked" on a single tile, rendering them unable to move or fight. Never had this happen before in a TW game. Oh well...
