ODYSSEUS' CITY BATTLES AND POSEIDON'S MIGHT - Total War Saga: TROY (Odysseus - Ithaca Campaign) #2

[@mandaloriancrusader6699]

I was sceptical about it fearing Thrones of Britannia outcome but this is absolutely epic. Classical Greece era of Trojan wars, more resources and hero units that are not ridiculously overpowered, beautiful graphics and art work, CA did it. Thanks for awesome gameplay and even better commentary Surreal.

from what i understood apparently the majority of players, especially in the newest total war player like this hero shenanigans, i personally don't like it but yeah if it's what most people want

While I'm not a very big fan of it, it does make sense since this is the Greek age of heroes.

I think now i can enjoy the series from this point onward. Keep the great work :100:

[@Syntax1963]

another great episode - I do not know why gamer made such a 'negative hype' about the upcoming Total War Troy - the game plays and looks fantastic - of course there are still balance issues - as the javelins seem a bit overpowered in range and accuracy - but all in all if the 'moders' will get their hand on this game it will be brilliant, as it is already a good game = and an amazing campaign and story mission from you - thank you for all the nice time I have watching your KZbin channel...!

[@Syntax1963]

@Dongs they allow or not!? who cares= there is always a way to install mods - that's what 'modders' do... they will find a way....I am sure...

[@Syntax1963]

@Levente King Empire Total War is a good game for sure, (I played and modded it with 'Darth Vader' for very long time period... but time moves on and so is the graphic, and I like the graphics of the Troy game - I do not have it yet, but what I see here the landscape is looking great!

next to the subscribe button you have a blue button named "join" you can do this and apart from this you can get KZbin premium (channels get more revenue from premium viewers than normal ones), "join" route to directly help Surreal and "premium" route to indirectly help(a little) all the channels you view.

[@jackmilligan4901]

@@akhilreddy5453 Gracias, amigo. Actually, I have been a Premium member since Season 1 of "Cobra Kai". I don't know the formula KZbin uses to allocate, but I do join channels and try always to push "like" on good vids. Guys like Matthew(?)/"Surreal Beliefs" don't get the "likes" they deserve b/c other guys (like me) binge watch his program and I forget to "like" each one. Patreon is a strange concept for me. I don't like it. But this is, in effect, a business, not a hobby. "Sureal" works hard and should be compensated for his content. I'd feel much more comfortable wiring him say $75-100 for the past year b/c I've listened to his clever, mucho geeky jibber jabber so much I've taken a shine to him. He's a good egg. And I share his love of history and antiquities. Can I not just use PayPal or something? I'm not losing sleep over this. I just want to show some appreciation and encourage his aspirations.

[@julicrusellas]

Hey Surreal, since Odisseus was kind hearted and not an conqueror (even thought you are dead if you mess with him) i suggest you do not conquer at first sight and you give a chance to other factions that did not do nothing lorewise to hurt you.

[@MrMinnimonster]

Looks all right, I guess. What still bothers me are the bad animations. It all looks very unrealistic. Another thing, which is more of a general problem, is you zoom out a bit, the screen is just filled with icons. Man I wanna look at a battle not gigantic Icons! (I know you can turn them off. Still bothers me). Look at Medieval 2 unit icons, they are smaller, when far away and bigger if close. I want that option!

[@auramoonlight6978]

no offense but it feels like they're taking a step back I mean we already have Rome II Total war and Rome 2 Attila not to mention thrones of Britannia so why do we need Troy when we already have the Greek States and the successor kingdoms of Alexander in Rome II Total war? PS it's like the argument on why do we need three kingdoms when we already have Shogun 2?
