Total War thread: What's your favorite Total War and when did the series frick up? :marseycrusader: :marseyredcoat: :marseymarmotroman: :marseygladiator: :capypharaoh:

I've sunk a ton of time into the Total War franchise but they're never as good as I want them to be. It's hard to pick a favorite because every game has caveats and major downgrades from its predecessor. The battles have strongly trended towards a simplified arcade style and the campaign map is a grab-bag of random features they'll never use again (Troy's resource system is great).

What's your favorite Total War?

Pic is mine, my fifth rate got a broadside into the stern of a pirate galleon. I ended up winning that battle and capturing every ship less the one that exploded.

Did you play naval battles?

What changes would you like to see? What are your ideas for new games in the series?

P.S.

Medieval 1 is really good if you can get over how old it is.

I cant even bring myself to play the series anymore. A decade of watching them try to wrangle the warscape engine has left me permanently blueballed with how many weird hacks they have to add to the code to add in basic stuff that rome 1 had 20 years ago like unit collision, and ai that will actually siege your cities. Until they fix the engine no total war game will be above a 7/10 for me.
