Not Worthy of the "Total War" Title
Being a total war fan since 2000 I have watched & enjoyed the brand grow & evolve sometimes for the better, somtimes for the worse. Rome 2 totally takes it in the direction of worse in my opinion, dumbing down all di... Read Full Review

So much potential but with so little of it (currently) realised.
Rome II is a step back from Shogun 2. Fights are shorter, 90% town based and over in 5 minutes if you're lucky. Units blob together, the AI is either passive or straight up runs at your army/the capture flag objectiv... Read Full Review

This game is a half finished piece of crap. No Joke! I will never preorder a total war game again.
CA lied straight to my face. So many reviews and interviews explaining how they would make huge improvements to the AI, yet the AI is so bad its even worse than previous AI's from earlier releases. This has been a big th... Read Full Review

This game has lots of problems, and it feels like a Shogun 2 DLC that take places in Europe.
Starting from the intro, I thought I was watching the original Rome total war, what happened to all those real actor cinematic scenes? Even on high end computer, this game runs worse than the original Rome Total War, ... Read Full Review
