[abc1]

These BAD NEWS are confirmed! :

1. They will remove DUEL, yea no duel anymore! (Or atleast just a duel video)
2. They will never use DEBATE.
3. There will be no STORYline like in RTK IX or X
4. NO MODDING SUPPORT ! NO WORKSHOP IN STEAM.

Go to hell KOEI, ive had enough with your tricks and ignorance. GO TO HELL

TW:TK is junk.

TW:TK (released 7.5 months ago) can barely beat TW:Rome II which was released 6.5 year ago.

TW:Warhammer II is far more supported than TW:TK

Well said.

Yea I didn't even know ROTK was still a thing before today. After reading this thread I'm thinking I'll probably buy it. Good job OP.

Amount of players means nothing when a 7 year old game has multiple DLC campaigns, and massive overhauls that a huge chunk of the player base use. Compare 3K to Rome 2 8 months after release, and 3K is looking pretty damn good. R2 was absolutely awful on release, and took a solid year to get even to mediocre. 7 years later, it is a very different game than it was 8 months after release.

And of course Warhammer has more players, it is fantasy. That is like saying "More people like Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter than Bernard Cornwell novels, so The Last Kingdom series is crappy". Historical titles simply do not sell as well, especially in the West, as fantasy. Hence why you see SO MUCH fantasy, and historical titles are fairly niche.

Oh guaranteed there will be modding. But it is against the ToS, whichmeans it won't have any official, or Steam, support.

It probably will fail, because now that TW:TK is out, most people finally got their wish of a more immersive setting game. And XII & XIII have pissed off enough of fans to not support it again.

And this is a good thing, because the last two games have shown that Koei has gotten lazy as ♥♥♥♥ and thinks they can get away with anything.

TW:TK is a huge success and the best TW since S2, and Koei better be stepping up their game if they don't wanna lose players.
But then again, keep in mind that its a console strategy game in Japan first and foremost and only ported to PC, so many people cannot access TWTK in Japan which is what they're banking on.

But seriously, they're games have become lazy and are far behind. With TW and CK2/EUIV having the reign, I don't see much room for Koei's strategy games outside of a long time fan circle thats getting smaller by the year.

When I started playing TW:TK, I also felt that KOEI had drop the ball with RTK13 and that they would be in serious trouble if they did not come back to their classic strengths (Instead of the role playing genre aka general storyline). But, the problem with TW:TK is the lack of focus on city, empire building and storyline. Its a war game, not a empire building one. So, I am still hoping that KOEI got the best of all strategy genre and put this into RTK14. Can wait to play it in English

That definitely matters. Official support would mean possibly giving modders tools, and tools for people who don't know coding to do some work with it. Also, there is a definite chance of modders making mods, them getting too popular, and they slap with a Cease and Desist. IDK of it happening with Koei, but knowing Tecmo it wouldn't surprise me at all. No Steam support means no workshop, which in turns means far, FAR fewer people playing mods, which means fewer mods, longer times for people to make the mods (fewer people to help), less testing.

As long as the mod isnt copyright or affecting online play tecmo wont care.

You might be surprised. Pokemon mods have gotten C&D, Final Fantasy mods have gotten C&D, Total War mods have gotten them. Anything a company thinks might make them look bad is a potential target. It isn't likely, and I haven't heard of Tecmo doing so, but it isn't outside the realm of possibility. Much more important though from the lack of support is the lack of players modding, though. Which just leads to a dearth of mods, or poorly-balanced mods, or very small mods.

Have you published the mods, and have they gotten popular enough Square noticed, and is it on newer titles? They don't seem to care about ff9 and earlier mods, and have allowed some ff12 mods to say up (even allow some links on Steam), but have shut down others.

no i dont publish mods until they are complete. they cant do anything to you for modding a game that doesnt affect other people. if it is solely used for single player they cant do anything except patch it.
