Is 3 as good as 2 yet?
I haven't played since the chorf update
>>
>>737655341
It's getting a new huge DLC in a few months which will touch up Tomb Kings if that's what you are after. But as a TW it was better than since day 1 since it made melee effective instead of only favoring ranged like TW2.
>>
>>737655341
I think the only thing 2 has on 3 is sieges not completely bugging the fuck out, but they're working on (another) siege rework right now so I don't know if this will hold.

are we hopeful they fix 3? im totally sure its getting abandoned when tw 40k comes

My favorite part is when if you have enough people on the map unit pathfinding breaks down and everyone sits in place. Really love getting shot to pieces and being unable to do anything about it.
>>737656097
There's a smaller DLC coming up, a giant DLC in the works, a lot of promises they made like Toddbringer, and I remember someone saying they're contractually obligated to add all of the dragon siblings but who knows.
>>
>>737656097
They can't fix it, even CA acknowledged it but yes they'll eventually end support probably after End Times dlc.
But will it happen? I doubt it, I think that CA will occasionally update the game with half-baker single lord dlcs just to promote whatever the fuck GW came up with for the Old World.

Just too bad cause it seems like DoW may never see the light of day... at least not in the shape they deserve.
>>
>>737648212
For me, it's Kemmler with Krell, zombies, necromancers, more zombies, more necromancers and Krell just killing things
>>
>>737656097
There is a 2nd, or maybe its the third, siege rework coming up they are showing off next week. Any other major issues are just shit from WH1 and 2 that is just fundamental at this point. Like we won't get 3K diplomacy in Warhammer 3, or resources or interesting recruitment options from ToB or Troy. Accept what it is and move on.
>>
>>737656772
did they ever fix the ranged units refusing the fire bug
or the gate bug
>>
>>737657097
Fundamental problems I imagine, that shit popped up in both past games. Issue with the engine. So atleast 40k is moving onto a new one.
>>
>>737656650
Helman Ghorst is better at zombies and necromancers. In fact he's more of a necromancer than Kemmler who is a chaos cuck at heart.
>>
>>737656219
It absolutely will not be. Just download a mod to remove sieges, I did and I've never looked back
>>
>>737656219
Even if Sieges were good I'm of the opinion they are just way too frequent. Some factions have sieges almost every single town battle. I don't even think every single city should even be a siege. It should only be cities with a Landmark or something.

Wow what a great gameplay experience. I feel like Total War also suffers from the fact that at higher difficulties the game is busting your balls in the first 20 turns that you win every battle and do so with minimal casualties. It never feels like rising kingdoms competing for territory, you're just expected to win with a crapstack of tier 1 garbage until your legendary lord can actually field a mid tier army and you just steamroll everyone.

Not a very fun faction leader for a campaign but I like having her and her army of hags around as an army when I play Malekith. I really wish the game did more to encourage more diverse armies aside from having designated Legendary lords for certain unit types.

I hope the next Total War games give everyone the Chaos Warrior recruitment/Promotion system. It's so much better.

I want a mixture of faction wide, or at least army based unit caps and the experience based promotion system in 40k total war. Veteran Units should have a value to them beyond the actual price tag.

Unironically Malekith was the rightful king and the Asuryani are vile traitors.

Dont people on this site always talk about how much they want to fuck hags? Why are you posting an image of a mod that unhags her?
>>
>>737661806
Even before the endtimes he was the rightful heir but the flame rejected him. The only thing the end times added was the "he would've been fine if he stood in it for 2 more seconds lol" shit.
>>
>>737661925
>rightful heir
>was rejected
doesn't sound like a rightful heir to me...
>>
>>737661925
The Office of Phoenix King isn't hereditary. It's elective.
>>
>>737661925
The flame doesn't "accept" or "reject" shit, you have the problem of the exact same misunderstanding Malekith had regarding the flame and why it didn't work for him.
That is, until the End Times changed past canon.
>>
>>737656614
they already said they have more plans after end times
>>
>>737662013

>>737659363
Total war has always had that issue. The real fun for me was in being able to recreate real battlefield tactics despite the dodgy A.I. Now even that's gone.

the fire meant to burn him and then he'd be restored like a phoenix from the ashes, but that was interfered with
>>
>>737655341
It's only getting worse, they have been adding bloat over bloat, each new faction and """reworked""" faction is just adding menus on menus, I spend more time navigating garbage than I'm actually playing.
>>
>>737662013
Huh? Even in the end times the flames don't have a will, the flames just kill you and remake you into a new form. Malekith was just too scared / in pain to stand in them as much as he needed (without protection spells).

Aenarion threw himself at the flames as a last effort, desperate ditch attempt to get the attention of the elven gods who were too aloof to notice the fact that the world was fucking ending in a tide of unending chaos. Asuryan noticed an elf did something unthinkable in his own shrine and looked at what the fuck was going on, and the brought Aenarion back once he realized the extent of the situation and the circumstances that drove Aenarion to do such a desperate act.
The flames did what flames do, they burned him to death, it was Asuryan who only brought him back as an exception because the situation was so dire the world was literally ending. It was never EVER meant to be a ritual for choosing who's going to be the next king, it just became a ceremony afterwards as a historical rememberance, the entire fucking elven race could throw themselves in after the world crisis was done and no fucking king would come out.
Malekith completely misunderstood that just like many, many, many, many, MANY people, including GW themselves, also misunderstand it.
And now the End Times took that misunderstanding and ran with it, completely shitting all over the great elven lore we once had.

Well, when you think about it, the End Times also is a time where the world is fucking ending in a tide of unending chaos.

The problem isn't Asuryan intervening again, just like Sigmar coming back under such a circumstance also isn't a problem. The problem is shitting all over the past history and lore by saying that "actually the flames always just chose and would have chosen if he stayed an extra attosecond or two ;)" which is a complete and utter fucking lie.

Every Phoenix King after Aenarion did and, except for malekith, they all came out fine. The important part here is that they have wizards shielding them from the fire so they don't burn to death.

>>737662794
Fair enough. Honestly, Malekith's story has never been perfectly fleshed out, nobody still managed to properly explain why he suddenly turns evil and tries to kill the phoenix king that got elected in his stead. The whole change is too sudden and happens without much of an explanation.

If I were put in charge to explain that plot point by GW, I'd say that the truth is that it was the power-hungry High Elves nobles who poisoned Bel-Shanaar, and then accused Malekith of being the culprit. At that point Malekith goes "fuck it, HE are all dicks, I'm gonna start my own civilization with blackjack and hoes" and goes in a self-emposed exile to Naggarond. Then slowly descends to madness because his mother keeps manipulating him, until he goes back to his senses after that visit in the Chaos Warp because of his retreat from the second (I think it was the second?) invasion of Ulthuan.

I still really like Malekith, even though his story is incomplete here and there. It's cool to see a guy descend to darkness and then eventually come back to his senses, even after all the shit he has done. Obviously, it'd be better if they could properly explain every change.

I’ve been reading Malus’ first book, and while it’s interesting to read about a race so vile, it’s also exhausting for everyone to be such a monster. This is a really funny read after some Drizz’t novels, though, because it’s like they took DnD dark elves and cranked them to 11.
