Ignore the reviewer, this game is actually pretty good

Okay, I understand how a reviewer might not like a game and might want to rip it apart, but honestly, a lot of stuff this guy said is crap. He was right about nothing but bad bad voice acting and the great Empire mode. Empire mode allows for you to do actually make choices that affect battle in a larger scale, such as placing troops in specific areas and setting up defense, to much more complex things such as allowing or refusing for troops to go home to aid your army, or sacrificing a group of good men to make a dent in a critical area of later battle. It's very deep, and you even have good-bad morale choices to make. Gameplay goes to what gaming actually is, not forcing you to make too many choices, but mixing things up enough to make it somewhat challenging and fun on higher difficulty settings (this guy played on easy most likely, and only finds it fun to fight hundreds of enemies that block and dodge a lot) the AI in this game is a lot smarter than people say, as they will swarm around you and try to defend themselves, attacking when your back is turned to a group of them, and if a officer is in the area, they will change their fighting style to help the officer fight you. The graphics in this game aren't uber beautiful, but if you have been playing games since the N64 era, then graphics hopefully shouldn't inhibit you from purchasing a game. Fret not, the graphics look next gen enough to make you wow when you see a awe-inspiring combo. The voice acting is outright horrible, but the music playing during combat is the right thing for action. There are many characters in the game that have made a return, and some new faces, and of course the usual upgrades (weapons, maps, etc;). If you could care less about a story and are looking for a game that can keep you coming back for months on end (occasionally) to conquer civilizations and play with tons of characters, then you should have this game right now
