Are we ever going to get a normal TW game again ?

[Mentally eel]

i love warhammer. i used to collect it n all that stuff but i also love the old kind of total war games with more history n stuff.

I want my medieval total war.

[Mentally eel]

i mean i will still play this when it release.. i just hope for somewhat historical titles to release again, like mentioned personaly im into the medieval stuff but would be awesome to se them experiment with new stuff again like they did when they made the first warhammer.

CA sold out its core gameplay and evolved as a triple A company, their games also cost way more than 10 years ago with Napoleon and Shogun 2, more than doubled the price actually. yikes. I have warhammer 2 but i never got into it because now you need like a Nasa computer for an 'RTS' and i don´t understand the strategy or logic of any of the units of the new fantasy total wars. Its like throwing power rangers + dragons + whole cast of lotr + batman + star wars all together...with the other unimaginable fiction archtypes.

It is surprising good DrawVid. Very stable so far if you play without any mods. Its very slow paced compared to more recent TWs, especially since you can only recruit 1 unit at a time, so in the beginning it takes forever to try and build up a strong enough force without hampering your growth lvl and falling behind the 'tech curve' (no research, just more advanced buildings allow better units)

That said, there are a number of mods that improve all aspects of the base game and even change enough things to make them replaying campaigns fresh and interesting. Modders can also now add in basically unlimited amount of factions and can add in entire cities to areas that had none before.

I was holding out, but decided to get it during winter break and I have not regretted my decision so far.

My biggest problems with the original Rome Total War are squalor, and diplomacy and was looking forward to Remastered when I heard they were changing those. I'm not sure about squalor but I heard that diplomacy is not only the same in Remastered, it's even worse and broken at times. I've also heard that the fix to squalor didn't really help and it's still as bad as the original.

Part of the problem was likely them running out of eras they felt fit the scope of a full TW title(vs the smaller focus of a Saga title) and they made a good partnership with GW. ..... They've also been trying to avoid just rehashing sequels so they've been wanting to diversify.

You say that when there's no evidence for it whatsoever. Before Warhammer showed up, CA was making historical titles exclusively and everything seemed to be going quite swimmingly. Sure there was the fiasco with Rome II, but Atilla was well received, and Rome II eventually got fixed up and became something decent. It's just as possible that Warhammer was nothing more than an interruption in historical title assembly line, and after they are done with Warhammer they could go back to focusing on purely historical titles again with Medieval 3, Shogun 3, Rome 3 or even cover a new time period all together.

Morrowind

Good taste. Morrowind is my favorite western rpg. There really arent anything like it nowadays.

The fact that it also got god tier mods like Tamriel Rebuilt, Province Cyrodiil, and Skyrim: Home of the Nords also helps keeping it fresh with new content every year or so.

Try wabbajack, its not a mod per se but its a compilation of mods that all work seemlessly together right now im playing the "Youre just an N'wah" mod pack that adds in lots of new things like worship a specific daedra for buffs,starting backgrounds(Like mage apprentice,Renowned fighter with a legendary sword etc etc all have bonuses and negatives) plus updated graphics

After Total war 40k and Warhammer Total war 1 / 2 / 3 Remastered :-D

Warhammer Sold better than all other Histrorical Tital together ! why do you think they would do a Histrorical Total war ? you get the Small titel like Britannia, Troy, Attila....live with it and Have Fun.

Yes, but what comes after Total War Warhammer? More historical games? Another fantasy game? A game mixture of both because it's set in a real world historical setting but includes myths and superstitions? Both both because now they have a "fantasy series" and a "historical series"? We just don't know yet, and to be honest any and all of those are possible.

Ironically enough, while I feel that there are some things that Total War games after Rome 2 did better than the older titles, Rome 1 and Medieval 2 still had many core gameplay that were actually better than what we have now. Diplomacy is miles better than what Rome 1 and Medieval 2 had, even relatively crappy diplomacy in TWW and Rome 2, but I do like settlement an army management better in Rome 1 and Medieval 2 and I like that you had to make your own garrisons. It was super annoying needing multiple fullstacks to attack cities with armies parked outside of them, and it was ridiculous because it made actually made smaller and weaker nations, which should be easy pickings in the early game, more difficult to attack and conquer than huge empires. Also the ability to split off armies and not have an arbitrary limit on the number of armies you could have was much better as well.

I think the ideal system would be a hybrid of the two. Can't argue about the better graphics though.

[Scoot]

the thing with Warhammer is that CA can continuously churn out DLC for new factions; and I'm going to keep buying them -_-

[Zugs]

no we arent.. why because historical titles have no variance in armies and there is no DLC worth a crap. Where as Warhammer is a trove of all of the above. If they are smart their next game would be Lord of the rings, or Conan based....
