Total War: Rome II

[debux]

You haven't got any of the new ones?

Well, they're not that bad, but not worth the whole price I honestly would have paid what a full-price game today costs for RTW... I wish I could count how many hours I've spent there (I think my steam account says like 250 hours, but ever since I got the disks like two or one year ago, I barely play the steam version... and I must have gotten RTW on steam 2009. Best investment EVER)

[comrade_general]

No, I haven't got any of them.

I suppose I will some day, like you say when the price drops.

Yeah, those succulent summer sales on Steam should be coming around the corner about now.

BTW, don't play any of the games (if you ever get one) without mods. Seriously.

-ETW is bugged to hell, and really lacks interesting features that mods give it (but I only like it above NTW by the feel the game gives, NTW feels way to futuristic.
-NTW and TW:S2 have ridiculously high death rates... it's stressing to play them. They become so much more enjoyable with stats rebalancing mods.

I actually haven't touched TW:S2 since months... still looking for an excuse to install those mods and give it another go (and RTW keeps me coming back!)

Thumbs up if you still play the original rome! totaly excited for this

[debux]

It's basically the only TW I play currently... I tried installing a mod for S2TW yesterday, but failed horribly... wasn't too eager to play S2TW in any case...

[Phoenixguard09]

Yeah, only play Rome and Med 2 cause my technology curse is such that Empire TW won't play without massive lag, to say nothing of Shogun 2.

You're not missing on much though... try borrowing a pc that can run it for 20-40 hours and you'll have your fill of the three games (unless you really like a certain period/theme)

[Phoenixguard09]

Nah I don't like any of those periods much anyway.

Med 2 covers me. Well Call of Warhammer does anyway.

Hi there people. I'm new here, as you probably can see.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw the Rome 2 banner on totalwar.com. I have spent so much time in Rome 1 it's ridicoulus. I hope the mod support is as good as it is with Rome 1, eventhough it probably won't...

Looking forward to getting to know you people!

Hello! Welcome to Exilian!

[debux]

Hey! I guess we all RTW junkies are rather hyped on the sequel... I'm trying to not formulate any opinions or expectations of it, but it's so hard will the little info we have so far! I'm really looking forward for some trailers in the future
