That glorious Rome Total War theme music......The main theme of history

The thing I miss most about the old TW games was the fact that when you built a city it just got better. Why did practically every single strategy game get so obsessed with provinces and city's always having trade offs? "Sure sire you could build a port.... but it will mean you're going to have to tear up all our farms!" "Why?" "Because those are the rules!!"

More interesting gameplay, basically. If the correct strategy is always 'build more stuff', then city building is an afk task (which it more or less was in Mediaeval 2 and Rome, esp. compared to the original Mediaeval Total War). All cities are more or less the same in Rome, which makes the strategy layer kind of boring once you've worked out the optimal building order. Mediaeval tried to spice this up by creating two different city types, but this really just meant you had to memorise two build orders. In Rome 2 and onwards you at least nominally have to think about what the actual best building to put in the individual settlement is based on what you want to do with it. As an example of how this was also really stupid - you can't fortify your settlements in Rome and Mediaeval 2 beyond what their settlement level would allow, for example, so your border regions were always more vulnerable than your core regions despite that logically you would want to focus fortifications on borders with tough enemies, which you could do in Mediaeval 1, and which was reintroduced in later Total War games. I did prefer the original Mediaeval system where certain buildings were locked based on what resources were available in the province, recruitment was based on building synergies (including the resource-locked ones!), and you could rush nearly any building tree but the main cost to you was the amount of time it would take to build the thing, so you had to consider very carefully what, where, and if you wanted to build at all. Empire/Napoleon /almost/ returned to this system but used cost gating instead, which I dislike, and which basically every Total War since has used, which reduces strategy in a different way, but to 'spam resource buildings for more money'. I think Troy was a step in the right direction on that front, but Troy also had a bit too much resource availability and more or less the same cost gating issue.

@chrisgibson8863

3 жыл бұрын

@@therat1117 I get why strategy games shifted to trading off this for that with settlement development. Originally I thought it was a cool concept. Then every single game decided to do a version of it and now they all just seem like math class and their rules are all arbitrary. It's just to roadblock the player with an annoyance, it's not historically accurate whatsoever in most cases. In the time period of Rome some cities really could have all those buildings, and some of them did. They weren't given arbitrary game blockers for the sake of a challenge. I don't know it's just my preference. I think the concept has become pretentious and I would rather go back to a simpler time.

@therat1117

3 жыл бұрын

@@chrisgibson8863 I feel that. I feel like you should be able to build massive cities with all the buildings, but have a realistic balance of time and cost to this, and not the stupid squalor or public order sinks. The idea of increasing city size with development is good, but the idea and balance of it is too underdeveloped in Total War rn. I especially don't like gating individual building tree progress behind settlement level - that really is arbitrary.

Carthage did not really had a flag or symbol according to the historical notes, the closest they used wasthe image of goddess Tanit. The crescent is modernized version made with crescent moon which is NOT correct (having spoken with Tunisian historian professors AND browsing through archives of universities in Marrakesh and Cairo).

Third age on this would be a game-changer.

The children will finally be quiet tonight

The idle resource reminder is surprisingly helpful. I have been playing a lot of med 2 recently and have had many moments where I realized I left a merchant or diplomat in the middle of nowhere.

God, I cannot wait for this. I never really played the campaign for Rome I because I was quite young when I played it and it just confused me tbh, I just used to play the multiplayer 24/7 and I cannot wait to return to it.

I would imagine there will be a revival of the cult following this game had in multipalyer

Rome 1 just has superior mechanics that makes it a nice game to play. They should not have made Rome 2 on the Warscape engine in the first place. It’s like those Need for Speed games on Frostbite. You just can’t eat your soup with a fork.

You could really feel and see the units clash in these old games

Looks good, but not a fan of the "mobile app" UI. Hope that mods are coming to a rescue!

You can get rid of that I think

Just hearing the music makes me 15 years younger, damn. Looks like they did a fine job with the remaster which is a rare sight these days. Hats off to the guys working on this one.

Shogun 2 with improved texture and controls and medieval 2 also, this would be so sick. Glad CA went back to the older game

Is there an option for longer, slower battles? That was what turned me away from Rome; it's hard to process what's happening in battles without frequent pausing because units will rout within only a few seconds of entering combat and units move around the battlefield so quickly

No option for that that I am aware of. The battles are much as I remember. Fast and you can't allow yourself to get rear charged.

Gotta wait for the mods to come out Man Fred. Pretty much every historical mod for any TW game makes the combat slower and longer.

This is what Rome 2 should have been like.

Its so weird. I remember way back in the day watching your Carthage campaign and its what got me into total war. Now we have come full circle haha. I'm so excited for this game.

Looks cool! Can't wait

Did they improve the AI? By far the biggest downside. They're so stupid

look exactly the same tbh they could barely even form battle lines in empire total war

so CA can't make an actually good historical Total War game anymore, so instead, they went back and made a facelift for the original good one?

Oh jeez already? Glad you get to check it early!

I never thought I'd be so excited for a total war game that's just a remake of the original. The pre R2TW games are where my heart will always be. Also, RTW introduced me to mods like Europa Barbarorum, which satisfied my need for a TW game with historical accuracy, depth, variety and immersion that few mods have provided.

Lol the fact that this exists proves that Rome 2 is a failure. Now when are we getting Medieval 2 Remastered!!!

Everybody is so excited, what exactly are you excited about? They didn't even rework the ai fighting mechanics, You guys really have fun beating and playing against brain dead ai? People that buy this are doing nothing but supporting the further down-fall of Total war.

This game would be awesome with challenging battles and just better AI in general. I played the EB mod for the historical depth and detail but I could never finish a campaign because it felt so unrewarding with the low difficulty.

I have never seen any of your videos, i dont know who you are, but the algorithm says that i may like this, and i do💛

Loved watching both you and PoM back in the day, still watch you now however, keep it up Heir

The UI is just horrible, it looks unpolished, bland and just too much like a mobile game. Especially compared to the original. I like they tried to keep the scroll-like style but its like they told the New Guy "hey Bro, you know how to work with paint? Go design us a new UI till tomorrow"

40 bucks for a 17 year old game, just because it has a new coat of paint and some quality of life changes? I don't think so. If I wanted to play Rome, I'd play Rome. My nostalgia glasses aren't strong enough to convince me for this, especially after Rome 2.

Such a nostalgia hit. HoC was the first KZreadr I watched who covered Total War when I first started playing the series, as a doe-eyed pre-teen! It's like nothing's changed :D

I have not watched Heir of Carthage in years. Hot damn, it is good to be back.
