Total War: Rome 2

[SympathysSilhouette]

Been playing this a bit since finishing Saints Row IV.

 

I'm playing as Rome.

With the relative strength of Roma heavy cavalry, it almost feels like cheating playing against the Germanic and Gallic factions.

I played the first one last year. How does this one looks?

Buggy as fuck, it's already been patched several times, it took three patches to get a playable format.

It's crazy how powerful Roman heavy cavalry is compared to normal Germanic infantry. In two subsequent battles with a somewhat decimated cavalry heavy army, I wiped out two Germanic armies and their reinforcements. Both times I inflicted over 3K victims and lost less than 100 myself. I don't recall those units being that overpowered in previous Total War games.

Words cannot do justice to how buggy this game still is after four patches.

I lost four turns worth of gameplay due to a crash yesterday.
