Total War: Where's the love?

[Isolation]

With the release of Rome 2: Total War just around the corner, it's strange that I don't see that much talk about it around here.

imo you're better off playing Napoleon.

Empire has SO MUCH potential it just doesn't reach :(

Yeah, he's right. Empire was really buggy and glitchy on release. But come on, you get to fight in India, America AND Europe. For me that does outweigh the bugs

Nickelob pls

But seriously, with most TW campaigns I get a few dozen turns in and just save and quit, I have so many unfinished saves just sitting there. But i'm pretty confident Rome II will be easy to get into.

[Nickelob Ultra]

i only own empire and rome 1, and empire was easy to get into but it's not one of those games i play extremely often like Civ5 or something.  there's no denying that it looks amazing, well-developed, and jaw-dropping pretty though.

Rome 2 looks really fluid. I'm excited.

I only played the Empires demo, it was alright. More of a Combat Mission kind of guy.

Ehh, imo Empire was the weakest of the entire series. You should try out some of the other demos

[Harm94]

Probably.

There's a lot of controversy about it being unpolished in the community but there's no controversy as to how fun it was. It was a fun as hell game at any rate, I enjoyed it too.
