Been on a long road with this game.
If you'd asked me my thought's in 2013 I would said it was one of the worst total wars ever made. In whats now close to 2021 my feelings have changed a lot.
After years of patching expansions and even use as practice for a new developer (CA Bulgaria made an expansion before working on Troy). Total War Rome 2 (Hate that name change) is a fine strategy game. Still a bit buggy and with some core design weirdness but a fine game none the less.And with some of the mods out there Rome 2 is even a good game. While I still am not a fan of where this game and Warhammer took the Series.
The expansion's that were released are all a little lack luster. They all just zoom into a part of the map and add a "story" focused campaign that at their best can be considered "fine".
I have a hard time not recommend this game in its current state. There still hundreds of hours of gameplay here. How much you like it though is going too depend on your previous experience with the franchise.
