Best realism mod?

[Gunfreak]

Which one is the best that works with the curret version of the game?

[Wraith]

try out divide et impera the most used overhaul mod in this game

[Teh_Diplomat]

Divide et Impera, so much damn better than Vanilla, you won't be able to go back.

[Wraith]

some people really like vanilla.

[BRAN MAC BORN]

There is no realism in Rome 2---sorry even with mods-it is a kiddie game.

[ＳＨＡＤＯＷ２ＫＫ]

DEI is a pretty realistic overhaul and really good to play

[BRAN MAC BORN]

I smoke reality.

Be wary of large mods that completely alter game play, in my experience they either buggar something up or they become impossibly hard and frustrating at some stage. My advise is stick to Vanilla, Rome 2 is much more historically accurate than Rome 1 was, for example you get the correct Roman army dress for the period and factions like the Samnites and Etruscans.

I refuse to play vanilla(5 minute battles etc), I liked RTR and was my go to, but it dosen't work anymore.

Divide et impera.

I disagree. The changes made by DEI would make the game more boring for me.

War of the gods is a good balance between realism and fun. Lol not slow and boring

[Rex Bellator]

lol people who unironically dismiss Rome II as a "kiddie game" should be laughed off the message board. M8 you have no idea what you're talking about.

Are you new to CA Total War games? Because there's no way you're implying Rome I was more realistic. I have news for you but there were no such thing as Germanic headhurlers or Gaulic screaming women or worse yet Roman Arcani aka Roman ninjas lurking the battlefield.

Nor is being able to turn every city into a megafortress realistic.

Rome II developers at least had the sense to do away with those silly units and ridiculous overpowered mechanics.

Please remove your tongue from the butthole of Total War Center and think for yourself. Just because some modders made mods like Europa Barbarorum and Rome Total Realism does not retroactively imbue Rome I with more realism. It was a cartoony game then as it is now and Rome II is a step up from that.

That said CA has never made "realistic" games, they fudge on the side of gameplay and historical authenticity rather than accuracy, as all successful developers do. If you want simulational realism go buy Imperator. (Have fun playing your spreadsheet!)

I recommend Wars of The Gods

DEI hands down. It is years of hard work that made the game irreplaceable. Playing DEI for the first time felt like playing total war again for the first time. It was a breath of fresh air for added depth and difficulty. I don’t mind the slow battles because it gives you more time to think whereas before if you don’t watch a unit and let them get charged they will be gone within 20s. Now you have time to react and save them.

6 years went into the development of wars of the gods mod. Just for the record
