IMO good as in I enjoy playing it. I still think Shogun 2 is better, but I also play the crap out of that and now I want a different setting. I can't tell you objectively since I also play with mods without checking what features that mod has. I just install it and go in blind and have fun.

They name it after Attila, but turns out you can't play as him or his faction. From the IGN write-up:
| Quote: | | Attila and his forces are not a faction in the traditional sense and can’t be played. They’re more like a force of nature that sweeps across the map, destroying and spoiling everything they touch. |
http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/09/25/total-war-attila-announced
I wonder how they're going to name the DLC. Attila Total War: Attila 4real

"Force of nature that sweeps across the map" makes me think it'll be like the Golden Horde invasion in Medieval 2. They should make it more interesting and give a chance for factions to be absorbed into the Huns, forcing players to make alliances and respond to threats quickly.

yahmmmmm they keep making the same game since Empire. CA must be a very boring place to work.
Wish they evolved the combat experience maybe Adding some kind of Operational level to it. Or at list some proper logistics.
But no, lets just re-skin add bugs and ship it.

Perhaps something like the Goat Simulator.

Playing Rome 2 during the free weekend has made me even less interested in the future of the TW franchise. Damn that game is ugly, there are so many jaggies and so much flickering that you'd think the game was running at 800x600. And that's with everything as high as it goes except depth of field which is turned off.
Graphics aren't everything, they are usually a very small part to me but the game doesn't seem to have much else going for it either. The gameplay seem very bland so far compared to the original RTW or M2TW.

The flickering is obnoxious, older games like Rome and Medieval 2 had much cleaner image quality. I also don't understand why they didn't include MSAA since it was in Shogun 2 which uses the same engine. The only way to somewhat improve the graphics is with the GEM mod.

My hopes aren't massively high, but I'm hoping this is to Rome 2 what Napoleon was to Empire.

What did Napoleon add to Empire, exactly? I'm asking because the former is the only game I don't own; regardless, I've had no major complaints about the latter, either.

It just kinda polished most of the rough edges off and added a few nice things.
Edit: Worth adding that quite a lot of the Napoleon improvements were backported to Empire. |
