CHIVALRY TOTAL WAR REVIEW: The MEDIEVAL Mod We've Been Waiting For
Ойындар
Chivalry Total War Remastered is a complete overhaul mod for Total War Rome Remastered that transforms the game from classical antiquity to the Medieval Era. I’ve been playing this mod over the past week or so, and folks I haven’t enjoyed a medieval-era Total War experience this much since Medieval 2. I’m going to show you why.

WHERE DID YOU GOOOOO
Thanks so much for this video, HappyCompy! Really appreciate it. Just a quick addition - the mod contains the original crusades mechanics (so when you conquer Levant provinces as a traditional crusader faction you get access to unique building trees to convert the populace and gain access to Crusader units), including similar mechanics for Baltic Crusade and Reconquista units (Teutonic knights and knights of Santiago).. and I have added (and tweaked) an emergent Crusader States faction that starts as a horde (playable and AI versions). Thanks again for the video, looking forward to a stream! ;)

Having a blast in this. Civil wars, Re-emergent Factions, Regional Crusader units makes it so much better. Can't wait for the future updates and features. All my free time is being spent between this and Total Conquest. Rome Remastered has really exceeded my expectations.

My favorite part was when the Agathian Knight defeated a Mason and the Mason said "you truly are Chivalry!"
Great showcase! This is very exciting but I think I’ll wait with playing this one, very excited for the map and units to experience some remodelling ;) awesome work though, like most RR mods things are very much a work in progress!

The Med 2 mod, Sicilian Vespers, was made by the one of the same Chivalry dev IIRC. Thst was always my favorite Med 2 mod centered on Europe. Lots of neat eras to play.

It even has gun powder units
cool thanks , but it wasn't explained what the differences between rome 1 and medieval 2's battle mechanics are for why i would want to play this over either original games?..... also how do i download these mods?...
I don't know if you already did but can you make a Total War Rome Remastered 1942 mod review? (also the Napoleon Total War WW1 mod)
is there a marriage system and heir? Never played rome 1 or this mod, but I love total war medieval 2 for the politics and dynasty system, but that game doesn't run on windows 10 for me.

In all fairness I am very thankful for the modders for their work and I'm grateful for their dedication but there is no way I can play such old games. Even Medieval II is too old for me by now, I loved this game during my childhood but after modern games and especially Rome 2 and Three Kingdoms I just can't stand the camera and the campaign "feelings" anymore from older games. The video you made is very appealing and the mod does looks great, the models does looks cool but I know the campaign will be boring very quickly for me and I'm the kind of person who likes doing battles during the campaign because there are stakes and a bit of role playing and don't like making custom battles for the sake of doing a battle. At some point we just need a proper Medieval III or eventually a Medieval II remake/remastered. It's a long due.

Generally I am of the same mind as you, but Rome Remastered has come a long way since launch in terms of usability. That said there is still no comparison compared to the new titles in terms of smoothness. For all its faults, warscape feels very smooth and satisfying imo.

Can you change religions in this game. I have about 35 hours into the Medieval Kingdoms 1212 mod for Atilla as the Byzantine Empire. I changed to Catholicism as that game allows that. Can you do the same in this mod?

I need to correct you: Medieval 1 is not a buggy, crashy unplayable mess on windows 10. It might be on other windows, Vista and 8. But definetely not on windows 10, as I have it and I play it constantly without any weird things or tinkering.

Well well well, what did I say? Rome total war will always be better than the crap that is Rome 2, but everyone doubted me. Look what's happened now. I rest my case.
what's the point of Rome Remastered if these units look exactly like in Rome 1 they move like robots, why can't they make units based on the updated models of Rome Remastered that look much better and newer

I believe Gudea is planning on bringing the units up to the standards set by the remaster eventually. Not sure 100% though. Still, the mod is great for the middle ages vibe!

No thanks. I HATE the large icons or whatever over the units. I wish they were like medieval 2. So irritating. What don’t people get. Crap.
Tbh if the mod relies on the stereotypical 'dark and gritty' trope that we see in so many medieval stories today, that's already one mark against it imo. The real middle ages were vibrant and very colorful, the 'dark and gritty' aesthetic is just used by people who lack confidence in their ability to portray the dark parts of the era without heavy handily adding gray and dark colors into the story. Ironically it's the one of the things Medieval 2 got more right than it's predecessor. Not sure why you think 'colorful=goofy' though.
@happycompy
Жыл бұрын
Yeah that's fair. Obviously color was still a thing in the middle ages 😂. I just enjoy the pop culture "DArK gRiTtY" take on the medieval era because I have nostalgia goggles for Medieval: Total War, Braveheart, and Kingdom of Heaven. And TBF, the art style and accents in M2 are pretty goofy, you can't deny it.
I'm sorry, but this mod sucks. It crashes when you try to play a custom battle, let alone if you try to play a multiplayer battle. I really wish these over zealous fools would think about this sort of thing before they just try reuploading the mods in an attempt to recapture the magic of the past.
