Nice vid brother. I agree with most points. However, as a biased gunpowder-era fanboy, the Napoleon placement hurt my soul lol.

I have been a TW games fan since 2014, and this list resonates most with me minus the medieval 2, Rome 1, Empire and Napoleon which I have never played. I have just purchased a new rig to Play Warhammer 3 since I have been playing Warhammer 2 and never upgraded to 3. I am really Excited XD

Three kingdoms did so many things right, but the battles did become kinda meh because everybodies armies were the same and was pretty much have your shieldwall hold the enemy and then let your cav destroy them. Specially coming from tw 2 battles

@MarcelPopa-wj7zj 10 дней назад

Atilla TW, its the best historical TW, the felling in that game, that aproaching apocalypse its golden. The objective its to survive, not to win.Just like a real war, a real battlefield. It;s great. Never traied the Warhhamer triology, maybe i will. With what game of the 3 should i begin ?

@idkbruh8611 2 месяца назад

@KentuckyFriedJohansson Месяц назад

Troy>Three Kingdoms for me. Which sucks because I love 3K's setting and art style a lot, it just wasn't all that fun to me. I liked the light-medium-heavy armor system in Troy, as well as the new resource system was a huge upgrade instead of just using gold, felt a bit more like CIV in that aspect. Bronze armor looked great as well, it was a downgrade to not have any cavalry though (i know, i know, time period blabla) Still almost exclusively play Rome 1 and Shogun 2 though, simply the best ones.

@animeindofunny9725 4 месяца назад

I started Total War with Shogun 2 when i got it for free on steam And i got overwhelmed by the mechanic at that time. And then i tried Rome Total War on phone and i love it, and then played Shogun 2 again after finished Rome 1 and i ended up love it. From here, i play some of total war game. Here's my ranking: 1. Medieval 2 2. Shogun 2 3. Rome 1/3 Kingdoms(these both tie) 5. Rome 2 Haven't tried Fall of Samurai, but after watching this video i might try it in the future. And also i didn't play Warhammer because i didn't like the setting (but i got the first Warhammer in Epic Store so maybe this will be my first Warhammer Total War game).

@owainevans89 4 месяца назад

A fellow seahawks fan? Awesome. Tbh ive been playing since shogun. While it was a different game from anything at the time i didnt feel that good about it. Medieval though is s tier for me. I still play it almost 23 years later. Its ai knocks spots off newer titles. Dont agree with some of the list but pretty decent

@owainevans89 4 месяца назад

Also I play the warhammer titles but I wouldn't put them s tier. They gutted sieges and battles tbh. Combat is shit but oooo look magic etc Etc.

@crob763 2 месяца назад

@jille2989 Месяц назад

Pharaoh is for me one of the better Total War games. Especially with the huge free expansion coming next August. It's really the bitterness of the Total War community that makes the game look bad.

@frbrbrgrblgrr7777 Месяц назад

Troy and 3 Kìngdoms are awesome. But 3 kingdoms kinda just got forgotten about. I guess Cathay was enough China for them lol

@khal7702 5 месяцев назад

good tier list but saying that game really started with Rome is bs. Shōgun started it all, there was nothing like it before

@Minatures 3 месяца назад

For me, Shogun II - Fall of the Samurai is by far the best tota war game I‘ve (and Japan isn‘t even my favorite setting). The fact that you rated it based on it‘s pricing (which says NOTHING about the game quality) is disappointing.

@Spiror 5 месяцев назад

Maybe they needed to merge troy and pharao bronze age and make it even bigger with civs from india , and or other areas like china or north europe….any bronze civ can be in the game . And even add like rome 2 periods like expansions…..

@madwellmusic8995 2 месяца назад

It was the lack of battle improvements that makes it lack luster for me. They should have incorporated a deeper take on military tactics impacting army organization. It was their chance to highlight the foundation of military tactics employed in ancient battles. Over time improving your armies from bands of roaming warriors, to ancient line battles. They didn't focus in the beginning of industry. And global commerce. It exists in the game sure, but to me poorly implemented as it doesn't reflect any total war model to engage the player in game player, rather than screens and screens and more screens of information.

@fugazi_guy Месяц назад

I agree 3K is so good crazy they abandoned it

@xeno195 Месяц назад

I think you were unfair on Fall of the Samurai, as I'm typing this I'm sitting here with the game's case on my lap. Total War Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai Limited Edition with in red on the back "Does not require the base game Total War Shogun 2 to play.". It was and still is a stand-alone expansion, that then got rebranded as a Saga title. It was and still is priced as a stand-alone game and shouldn't be punished on your tier list because you think it's a mere DLC being mispriced.

@madwellmusic8995 2 месяца назад

Empire could have been good, but i think they missed the mark by not including a historical story behind the game. It was more of a chess board of set pieces and surface level factions. The tech tree makes the pacing of the game, rather than following historical relevant triggers like in medivel 2. That would have added to the gameplay of which faction you pick, becuase they get a bonus for having a researcher or engineer or business tycoon. The lack of depth in the family tree system when royal families were the pinnacle of society. The game lacked grace, emotion, immersion, information, educative motives, depth and percision. It felt rushed and incomplete. Units were muddy, and sluggish, poorly animated. They invested little in simulating large scale battles, the physics, the sounds, the impact of concussion. Imagine peter jackson using green screen instead of natural geography. Thats what empire is. A green screen of histroy.

Because of your video I have purchased now total war medieval 2 and Warhammer 3. they all on discount now. 29 pound for two games. good deal. I think I am gonna have an amazing time. Please let me know which game of total war I should buy/play as a beginner ? I was mostly sitting on age of empires, stronghold, cossack, red alert, coh 2.

@TroySturdy 15 дней назад

@@TheMateuszek19 That’s awesome! Total War is a great series. Medieval 2 is a great classic to start with and is relatively simple. Warhammer 3 is much more complex but also more varied and epic. Definitely a great one if Fantasy or Warhammer is your thing, but I’d also very much recommend Warhammer 2 as I believe it has the best factions and that you can then play in Warhammer 3. Essentially it’s one big game. Also I’d really recommend Shogun 2! My personal favorite historical TW.
