      Gotta love when there was a time when you actually had games that were distinct in it’s beautiful visuals.
      Now every bloody AAA game aims at “realistic” graphics and frankly most look like they’re from 2013.

    The story was the thing that I really took away from this game. The gameplay was a little repetitive but the set scenes and cinematics were amazing. Voice acting was hearty and strong. Characters were believable, I was immersed in this game and the message it serves and by that message alone you could understand why the Roman's were around for so long.

      The actual story of Vindex and Galba's revolts against Nero, Nero's death, and the Year of Four Emperors that followed is, I think WAY more interesting.

    This game was one of the reasons why I got an xbox one around the time they came out. I remember loving the setting and the combat/executions were incredibly entertaining. I found out this game was on steam just a couple of weeks ago so I recently played through it again and I have to say I still had a blast up until the end when the combat became very repetitive and felt very tedious at times. It felt like the game relied a little too heavily on the guard break mechanic alone with some enemies that felt like sponges (mostly referencing the tall guys with the skull masks idk what they are called) But still overall I wish they would take a chance and make a better developed sequel to this game.

    “EERRUPP!” When in danger, I do it when I’m using the hydrolic press at work because our push rods are crap and sometimes violently shoot across the shop.

    This game brings me back, makes me remember all the Xbox games that came out at the time Sunset Overdrive, Ryse, Dead Rising 3.. Unfortunately gameplay of this game is so barebones that I don't know why they thought this was acceptable.

      First Secession of the Plebs
      In 495 BC, the plebeian populace of Rome began to raise significant concerns about debt, including questioning the necessity of beatings and imprisonment of debtors by money-lenders. Roman historian Livy records an account of a former military official throwing himself into the forum in an extremely dishevelled state, telling the people of his troubles. He explained that during the war against the Sabines his estate was torched by the enemy and his possessions stolen. Upon returning home, he was forced to take a loan to afford paying a tax that had been imposed on him, driving him deeply into debt due to usury. This resulted in him being forced to give up family properties including his grandfather and father's farms. When this was still insufficient, he was taken by his creditors to a prison, whipped, and threatened with death. The people at the forum were angered and the story quickly spread, drawing a large crowd into an uproar.
      After much anticipation about consul or senate action to address popular debt concerns, consul Appius worsened the situation by passing unpopular decrees reinforcing the imprisonment of debtors by creditors. This outrage further compounded by continued senate inaction resulted in the plebeians seceding to the Mons Sacer (the Sacred Mountain), over three miles from the city, on the advice of Lucius Sicinius Vellutus. The plebeians then established basic defences in the area, waiting for senate action.
      After the secession, the senate finally took action to address the issue. Negotiating with three envoys from the plebeians, the senate came to a resolution. The patricians freed some of the plebs from their debts and conceded some of their power by creating the office of the Tribune of the Plebs. This office was the first government position to be held by the plebs, since at this time the office of consul was held by patricians solely. Plebeian Tribunes were made personally sacrosanct during their period in office, meaning that any person who harmed them was subject to punishment by death.
