Exciting, addicting, and polished

User Rating: 8 | Total War: WARHAMMER II PC

Pros:

  • Massive battles
  • Good combination of macro and micro strategy
  • Variety of strategy and situations
  • Good pacing
    • Doesn’t take long to build up armies or buildings
    • Doesn’t rush you through so fast that you can’t keep track of everything
    • Doesn’t get built up so big that it’s impossible to manage

Cons:

  • Attempts a narrative, but it gets lost and is difficult to follow (I started with the dark elf campaign)
  • Can be overly difficult.
    • I found easy campaign and easy battles to be challenging. Not sure how a higher difficulty would even be possible
