If you do this for the average Paradox or Train simulator game it would be the longest video series on KZbin.

I've recently been replaying the wrath of sparta campaign and honestly it's better than i remembered it. The longer recruitment times and spread out colonies present a unique challenge, and I had fun as the Athenians trying to snipe at unprotected port settlements with my navy. Also fun to take on the Persians and Macedonians in the late game, though I think they could've done more with that tbh. All-in-all my clear favourite campaign expansion for TWR2.

I'm doing a numidia and mauretania coop campaign with my buddy in empire divided playing as governers serving emperor aurelian. Its really fun since we are both romans starting with little territory close to each other and also a challenging start since we are surounded by our african and latin Iberian enemies.

Andy, how come the textures in this video, in the game, are so sharp? They look gorgeous. I am on a good machine, and on a 1440p monitor, but they're far from looking this good. Is it a 4k monitor or have you tweaked some settings in your GPU control panel? Thank you.
@AndysTake7 ай бұрын
Might be a combination of 4K and reshade, which makes things look a bit sharper? :)

I love Rome 2 but I think half the extra campaigns are bad. Also I only buy culture packs for the multiplayer factions and with one of them you unlock the tortoise for a few factions that should have them for free in multiplayer. Also i think the prices have increased significantly for the dlc since 2018.

The desert kingdoms or at least one of them has super cheap slave units which kind of changes the game a bit. Mainly being you can field more stacks and even have literal throw away slave death stacks.

on the topic of focused maps yes they are overall a more realistic experience i guess you could say i mean lets remember spain from medieval 2 , the reconquista lasted centuries while you can end it in a decade or lessby the time you get the knights of santiago there are no moors left to fight but i try my best to slow down my expansions for example in my current rome 2 campaign its the year 203 bc and i have only just advanced into raeti and helvetii lands
@MaFe19927 ай бұрын
What I absolutely hate about the Desert Kingdoms is, that in EVERY SINGLE campaign of mine, Nabatea takes the whole middle-east EVERY TIME and Saba always takes Iran and westwards EVERY TIME and Kush kills Egypt EVERY TIME. They seem to be so OP that the AI can not stand a chance against them. But this pattern is the same with some factioins in every culture group. Every campaign plays the same cause the same factions gain the upper hand every time :(

In which time period would be set the main campaign? I think 49 BC when Caesar came to power would be interesting. The game would definitely need some Attila mechanics.

@@unutenteinnecesario2941Rome would start a powerful unless they went back and did the Roman factions again from Rome one. As one of the factions you take rome in a civil war. I'd be all for that but but I think you would need to go back before 49 BC before Carthage is taken

I know its not really related to the video but i think i prefer total war games to paradox games because paradox games are not really more complex, they are more abstract(numbers and percentages). Although total war seems simpler, i like how close you are to whats happening in the game. You recruit 2 units in 2 turns and then place them on a bridge. BAM. Now you block the bridge and have a huge advantage against whoever tries to cross it. No need for numbers or menus

I find it funny that Andy forgot the worst culture pack: Nomadic tribes, unlike the nomads in Atilla they aren’t nomadic and have to play the same city management game as the other factions and their armies are majority horses with few infantry units so sieges with them are boring. In my opinion Nomadic tribes should have been either a Germanic or Britannic tribe DLC as there is only one of each playable faction in the Grand Campaign.

No DLC is going to save this game, and it doesn't deserve to be played without a trainer, and it certainly doesn't deserve to be bought, and it definitely doesn't deserve to be called Rome because it's delivering awfully wrong information about the "Roman History" and CA and Sega should be prosecuted by the Senate.
