Great review! Favourite bit was the end when you promoted me. lol.
It was pretty sweet alright :P
Ahh the start of a fruitful relationship
I think Creative Assembly does better when they focus on smaller scale campaigns. Take Medieval 2, the grand campaign I had trouble getting into but the kingdoms campaign I played the shit out of. Shogun 2, possibly the best Total War game ever, the focus is on Japan for a small period of time. So far the DLC's for Rome 2 and Attila look better than the main game.
CiG, HatG are better games than the "grand" campaign. As with Shogun2, CA proved it can do well military campaigns or short periods of time. The reduced number of factions also improves performance. CA can't do large periods of time because they were never in the business of making grand strategy games. Without the adequate internal affairs, inter-state relations and the a well crafted experience of creating a legacy, it's harder to make it feel "grand". In the shorter games, you focus on a single general and its companions, you have a clear and pressing focus and all of a sudden things align "magically".
Like 3K?
On a scale of 1 to 10 I rate this review at Over 9000.
If marketing and management can be sciences diplomacy can be a technology.
haha that made me laugh
Really good review keep it up !
Thank you :)
+Jackie Fish You watch this channel?
Really good review! Just to point out around 4:33 you said that there was a famous siege of Syracuse in 218BC with all of Archimedes' inventions helping with the defense. The siege I believe you are talking about actually took place from 214BC to 212BC :)
Yeah you're correct. I went back to my source and I guess I read it wrong as they talked about the Punic War of 218. I remember thinking that the taking of Syracuse didn't line up correctly in the timeline against Carthage, Thanks for correcting me!
Excellent review. I would like it if at the end of these that you make a quick summary of the things you mentioned
Yeah you're right, I'll keep that in mind for the next review. Thanks!
the shogun 2 unit interactions look so much better
Fun Fact, back in the days just after ROME 1 got on the market the team brought out for what it is now called an extra MOD called BATTLE AT CANNAE, that one was exellent, wonder why it did turn up in the main package from the beginning.
I read your review before deciding to buy it. If you said it was bad I wouldnt have.
love you're vids, i dont play rome 2 only medieval 2 and shogun 2 but still you are a really fun to watch TW player. keep doing it
Thanks, I will :)
Incisive, thorough and highly articulate critique. I purchased this DLC based on your review. Many thanks DTW.
Thank you! Hope you made the right choice :)
Your content is so high quality. You deserve 999999999999subs :)
Haha, you should tell 999999999147 people to subscribe :P
so should I get it or not? I know this is not the point of the review but I dont want to waste my money
Get it 50% off. It might be 50% off on Steam right now. It's better than Caesar in Gaul and is worth it for the Spartacus Rises mod too.
thanks alot man
just like the main game:
Focus on mercenaries and get a discount or do nothing
Thanks for this review
The "technologies" in this campaign are like the national focuses in HOI4
6:38
lol!
What part of Ireland do you live in?
I come from Dublin
So basically nothing really NEW ! God I was so hoping they would change some of the awful game mechanics of the main game. Seems, I was wrong. and why the hell are the tech & family trees such a mess??!! What was so wrong with the old formula that they had to change 'em 360 degrees?!! CA ruined one of the best strategy game series of all time. such a shame...
How old are you here, Your voice is so high like your putting it on haha. Oh being young!
