Two problems:>China simply isn't interesting>50% of the game is locked behind overpriced DLC
>>741221635 Look up Dynasty Warriors on YouTube this time frame of China is super popular for video games and it's not just a Chinese thing
This was when Total War peaked and is their magnum opus. After the Warhammer slop games started, it was all downhill from there.
>>741221917>and it's not just a Chinese thingno, it is. Three Kingdoms is the best-selling historical TW and all the sales came from China.
>>741222208one of those sales came from me because it's an actually interesting era just like every time an east asian country went and had a warlord battle royaleit's just a good time
>>741222063>hey, you know how we finally fixed diplomacy and characters with a new in-depth system?>let's never use it again lmao
>>741221635>look at total warhammer 3 on steam>60 dollars for a five year old game>whatever at least it has all the races, right?>literally something like 300 dollars worth of expansions>single races costing 20 dollars eachwhat the absolute fuck
>>741219029Wrong? it's a good game. You just gotta have a little interests and knowledge otherwise it's just fucking confusing with everyone looking and named almost the same. Kinda hard for normies who's never heard of rotk to understand jackshit of whats going, but the huge battles are cool regardless.
>>741224609A complex and well thought out diplomacy system does not sell more warhammer character dlc. you should know this anon
>>741224915wrong in that CA/SEGA thew a tantrum and abandoned the game immediately when a DLC nobody asked for naturally didn't sell well
>>741224609>>741225092it kills me because good diplomacy is literally the only thing Total War has ever truly needed
>>741225181Exactly. Otherwise the game is just fighting over and over again. Total war players end up just using auto resolve after the first 10% of the game anyway.Three Kingdoms was a real strategy game
>>741225354to boot the retinue system was hit or miss but it was a step in the right direction compared to the AI not being into army comp worth a damn
Are you planning on the funny thing for diplomacy what about how well you can do the pharmacy in Total War Warhammer 3 be affected by which ways you are and what race you're doing diploma she with like your diplomacy options are a lot better if you're more human or other line faction talking to another one the more chaotic or evil you are the more it is straight out demand or force in the others to do what you want by me such as intimidation?

>>741226978>>741227731yeah
>>741219029Is this worth picking up as someone who’s played everything from Rome 1 up to Attila?Been playing through Napoleon again, man I wish we had more gunpowder era games like FOTS but knowing CA they will botch the inevitable world war titles.
i just don't care about total war games anymore. i don't care about med3, i only care about empire 2. why the fuck don't we have an empire 2 yet
>>741229624Empire 1 was an enormous game. Their budget for historical research and flavor text was probably more money than they want to spend total on an entry in the history franchise in 2026
>>741221635ancient China is kino fuck yourself
