The GODFATHER of ROME 2 Mods is BETTER THAN EVER - DEI 2023 Review

DEI - Divide et Impera - is one of the best Total War mods I've ever played, and perhaps the most essential. It essentially makes Rome 2 into what it could've been if we assume that the core remains, but if we had so much more complexity, depth and choice included. I've covered DEI before, but since it's been so long, I thought it was time to jump back in, and give a new and improved overview over the entirety of this amazing Rome 2 mod.
The incredible thing is that DEI has essentially been in development since Rome 2 released almost 10 years ago, and it really shows. With a population system, wonders, and even entirely new campaigns, it's one of the most comprehensive mods ever made. And so, is DEI worth playing in 2023? Let me know your thoughts on both DEI and this video in the comments, and as always, make sure to leave a like and subscribe to the channel :)

My favorite recent change is the removal of expert charge defense. They improved spear units' bonus vs cavalry to compensate and it has made using cavalry so much more reliable and I still get plenty of use out of light spear units vs cavalry

My only issue with this mod is, the fact that the AI is not affected by population. They keep churning out Stack After Stack

@pood40o72 Год назад

Really? I didn't know that. Do you know when the DEI dev team will add population effects to AI?

@Eurundt Год назад

I don't have the same experience. When, as Rome, I sack or liberate Carthaginian cities and towns in Africa they take a long time to recover from that. Every now and then Carthages throws in large armies trying to recapture Sicily, but when I defeat them I don't see new stacks any time soon.

@gesuntight Год назад

If the AI would use that systems it would just drain its population in the first 20 turns and cripple itself since it literally can't know about the script even existing.

@presidenteantonioconte1363 Год назад

Probably the only thing that's not explained in this mod is the faction leader's trait. If you have the "disdained faction leader" malus, your campaign will be heavily affected and there's nothing you can do about it, other than killing him. That might be the only thing with no tooltip in the mod tho

DEI looks so good, I mean it's always been one of the gold standards for TW mods, but it's great to see they're still smashing it out of the park 😁 I think it's really cool that they get they have expanded their mod to the other campaigns as well with some little changes there. Awesome indeed! I'll have to play through as Egypt and see if it matches the time frame 😅 It's a faction that is often misrepresented in media, having chariots and old kingdom looking dudes during the Macedonian successor kingdom period hahaha.

I love DEI, it has reinvigorated my interest in Rome 2. The added complexity is great, and amount of additional units is astonishing. The fleshing out of factions beyond Rome&Carthage is great too. My only gripe with the mod is how much the AI cheats, it kinda breaks my immersion. I know base game Rome 2 AI already cheats a ton, and all the added systems are basically impossible for it. Always max public order, sanitation, supply, some random barbarian village will have more pop than Rome etc. It's great fun, but still brought down by Rome 2 issues

@danasmith9122 9 месяцев назад

Yeah, and I noticed that the population system is kinda screwy and very historically innaccurate. Like, its cool that there IS a population system, but it feels like there's very little variation between cities. Titan of antiquites like Carthage, Alexandria, and Rome are all basically the size of most other urban centers around the map. And of course the AI generally have bigger cities than you due to extreme AI cheating. I'd love to actually see the significant differences between regions that existed historically. I want to see Syracuse tower over its neighbors, Rome put the other urban centers of Italy to shame, etc. But for that they'd need a more fleshed out pop system. And as someone who's modded and modeled much more complex population systems, it should be doable.

@WCSPriest 8 месяцев назад

I think the mod is overrated tbh. Don't get me wrong, it's a fantastic mod, but AI cheating with stacks upon stacks of enemies, with the possibility of garrisoning them whilist you can't do so, without causing a rebellion within few turns is just stupid. The game is way too easy without the mod, the battles are easy as always, but the cheating AI just does not feel good. You can field a stack of army while your several enemies can field 3 each.

@movieviewing 5 месяцев назад

ROME 2 DEI is a great mod where more in depth for politics, population, supplies for army, weather factor etc where wish was more indepth for these factors. however for me doesn't address two of the most fundamental issues. this being the lack of towns and cities in the grand campaign map. there are keys towns and cities that need to be added. they are in certain campaigns like caser and gaul, republic italy and greece but this those campaigns only deal with a small part of the known world. i know what the response going to be that the game only allows a certain amount of town and cities but still it needs to be sorted. the other factors that ties into the amount of town and cities is the deck of units in each army. where can only recruit 20 units in a pack. with the pack being in effect a legion and we all know how big a legion was. the standard thing is to increase the amount in each unit but with that you lose maneuver, there is a mod i used a while ago where you could increase the units from 20 to 70 units or more in a pack but with that due to the lack of cities and towns you cant support multiple legions that size.

@Dakka1968 Год назад

Hey mate. I’ve done it like 50 times on vh/vh. Here’s what I do. One legio build troops and rush Taras in the south held by Epirus. Other legio fight those Etruscan’s to make your first complete province. Keep Syracuse friendly. It’s annoying but you can keep one of the northern Gauls as an ally if you help them kill the other. Buys you time if carthage gets brave. Keep Syracuse friendly unless you are strong enough to rush it. If all that fails then use an easy diplomacy mod for a single turn to cheat non aggressions with carthage and Syracuse to buy you time to fight Epirus fairly. Hope that helps. I hated the idea of a gamer not leading his DEI legios in a 400 turn campaign. All the best Imperator

As a former Total War: Rome player (I haven't played it in like 10 years). Should I go with Rome remastered or Rome 2 (never played). Medieval 2 was the last one I played.

Honestly, DeI is a completely new game. I tried playing vanilla and it's unplayable to me after playing DeI

Same men. Dei is so much fun.

Vanilla Rome 2 has always been unplayable.

@@jasonargos110 Am I glad I bought it in 2020, and last year I finally bought a great gaming 💻 First I used like 30 mods. Now only dei and submods and also some graphical mods. And honestly on my I9 12900H 💻 with an rtx 3080 2x16gb ddr5 ram, it looks great. The load times are also short, because I have SSD. Now about the game again. I love the new Mithradetic wars campaign. Also the Macedonian wars are fun. And CIG stays one off my favorites too especially with DEI. When there ROTR campaign is fully done I will play it too.
