Includes expansions? Base game is whatever
Aaron Martinez
Your enjoyment of Total War games tends to depend widely on your preference of setting, but generally speaking Shogun 2 (and particularly, Fall of the Samurai expansion) is the most solid one in the series, although Medieval 2 has the best total conversion mods.

If you want more Japanese-era wargaming, you should also try Sengoku Jidai
Luis Sanders
Not that one, that's for sure.

Epic games of course.

How much time before the EGS drives Steam out of business?
I give it a couple years; three at the very most.
Brody Morris
Steam actually. In a week or so.
Isaac Sanchez
It's a broken mess, might as well play rome 1 at that point.
Matthew Turner
It really isn't
Jordan Taylor
the only good total war game
Anthony Baker
Everyone says M2 is better but I find the AI way too easy, otherwise it would be
Charles Torres
Second best TW game after Three Kingdoms.
Nolan Moore
Horrifying taste.

Ah, a man of exquisite taste

total war was never good and CA has played you faggots like a fiddle for years with their garbage AI and dlc practices
Logan Rodriguez
what the fuck
Ian Collins
I would say Fall of the Samurai. Its greatest issue is ability to cheese sieges simply by blasting the defenders with artillery, but that's hardly worse than AI units literally getting stuck in Rome/Medieval 2, even player units doing the same in Empire, or the poor excuse of sieges that you see in Warhammer. Other than that, it's mostly functional (for a given definition of functional) and I actually like how the multi-tiered defenses work in terms of acquiring and reinforcing footholds within the fort. Plus, while it is cheesy, blasting the defenders with artillery or naval bombardments is cool as fuck. Attila is pretty good, too, although I think it's a weaker game in general.

how do bats taste like?

>So... is it good?
it's about the best Total War game to be honest.
Good combination of nice modern graphics, clean minimalist UI and the campaign map being clean and clutterfree.
Playing Warhammer or any of the new ones after playing Shogun 2 feels like pic related.
Medieval 2 is prob the only TW game that can compete with Shogun 2.
Logan Perry
It's very flavourful but ancient by this point. Shitty unit balance, shit UI, can't even run at full graphical settings, regardless of hardware, because the engine is so shitty.
It's ok but you'd be better served by warhammer if you like watching toy men fight or 3K if you like strategy games.
Asher Hernandez
Is there any way to mod the newer TW games to be more like the older ones in regards the general recruitment system?
I fucking hate being tied to the generals.

Yes, but the way everybody turns against you after you capture an especific number of provincies is extremely retard.
It seams everybody forget how badly they were killing each other and, all of sudden, became best friends and join in an aliance to kill you.
The first time it happened i didnt understand a fuck
Dominic Smith
have they fixed the tiny and retarded siege maps in Warhammer 2? I know there's map mods that makes it massive.
Jeremiah Morgan
Doesn't matter how big or small the maps are; siege UI is fundamentally flawed when the AI will happily place its men on top of or behind the walls to get slaughtered by artillery or magic.
Kayden Ramirez
Why its free?
Kevin Martin
What why?
Robert Davis
> shit UI
What? I think Shogun 2 has the most efficient UI/gameplay flow out of Total War games. There are some nice additions to more recent games (the map you open with tab, I think it was called strategic view, being one) but I think the benefits of this are lost in the main map being more cluttered, and Shogun 2 has alternative ways of doing things that work fine.
Asher Wilson
What do you mean by free, and how?
Brody Thompson
It's one of those "add game to your library during a certain time span and keep it forever" kind of deals.

So those that say keep are forever?
Should one aim for those? Never knew steam gave free games, and I joined steam in 2011
