![]() The entry that almost brought CA to its knees, one of the worst total war games during its launch, was littered with bugs and glitches that made you laugh in pain, but a diamond is not a diamond until you rough up its edges that's what happened to Rome II. Total War: Rome II - 2013 (Windows, macOS) I had a blast playing the Hunnic campaign, as their only objective is to literally just burn everything to the ground!Ħ. What really shines most in this entry is the weight of the battles, where charges are more brutal and hand-to-hand fighting is much more desperate than other Total War entries. The ambiance of this game is on a different level from other Total War games where it is vibrant and colorful this one is dark and cold, a fitting theme for a game where everyone is just trying to survive. You get to play as the crumbling Roman empires stemming the tide of barbarian migrations or the barbarian tribes escaping from the relentless onslaught of the Huns. It feels like you are forging an empire at the end of the world. Cold, unforgiving, and brutal-that is how I would describe Attila Total War, the arrival of the Hunnic scourge on the borders of Europe, at a time when the earth is recorded to be the coldest since the last ice age. In Rome II, you will build an empire, but in Attila, it is all about survival. Total War: Attila - 2015 (Windows, macOS, Linux) I would recommend this game not just to new Total War players but to everyone who is also a fan of Napoleon.ħ. This entry is fun and engaging in terms of real-time battles and top-notch detail in the single-player campaign.Īlthough this is pretty much an “upgraded” Empire, it contains many of the most engaging historical campaigns you can play in a Total War series, where every faction you fight is a major player in a power struggle in Europe. The campaign is great, as you get a chance to follow in the footsteps of "Le Petit Caporal" on his way to be the undisputed master of Europe or be a part of the coalition that will stop his onward march to dominate Europe. Rome: Total War - 2004 (Windows, macOS, Android, iOS)Īs a stand-alone expansion of the controversial Total War: Empire, it offers a more polished and visually engaging experience than its predecessor but limits the scale of the campaign by focusing mainly on the European theater during the onset of the Napoleonic Wars. My friends scoff whenever I mention that I play this game, well “If they ever tell my story, let them say that I lived in the time of Achilles.”ĩ. ![]() Despite this, it is one of the most optimized and aesthetically pleasing entries in the Total War franchise to date, and although it is underrated due to its scope, I still recommend you try this game. The downside of this entry is the additional heroes and MythosDLCsthat should have been in the base game. It immerses you in bronze-age Greece, where you battle for the favor of the gods, hunt for mythical beasts that will aid you in battle, and wage war for the fate of Troy. This experience is a different one, to be honest it is still Total War but focuses more on the narrative campaign of each of the heroes that participated in the Trojan War. Total War: Warhammer – 2016 (Windows, macOS, Linux)Ī Saga title that retells the story of the Iliad, set in a time before the Romans founded Rome and a time where legends walked the earth. I still encourage players to try this game out and immerse themselves in this chaotic era of British history.ġ2. In spite of this, the game offers unique gameplay by introducing a new unit-mustering system, a character-driven campaign, and a shieldwall-oriented battle tactics. This game, in my opinion, is the weakest in the latest release of Total War games it lacks the scope and grandeur of other entries, and it felt like an experimental game by Creative Assembly. This installment of Total War takes an experimental approach to the Total War experience by being the first in the ‘Saga’ series and introducing new gameplay mechanics. Form alliances, raise armies, and manage a kingdom. You’ll get to play as one of the Anglo-Saxon, Gaelic, or Viking warlords fighting to be called the rightful king of the British Isles. Taking place during the tumultuous era of Britain and Ireland in the aftermath of the Viking invasions and their defeat by Alfred the Great.
