For shogun 2, they focus a lot more on Battle details, which makes it the Best in term of battle in all total war games. The combat animation, the charging unit, the sound effect, the arrow and gun effect and effectiveness, the artillery effect and effectiveness, the fire effect, the cavalry, almost everything in battle of Shogun 2 is perfect. Maybe because players did not appreciated these, results in CA removing its focus on battle since Total War Rome 2

Also a huge fan of the 3 land regions, the 3 regions allows for wars across different theatres or allows you to expand your empire without disrupting a certain region too much, like pushing through the Americas allows you to expand while only pissing of 2-3 (Britain, France and Spain) European powers where as expanding in Europe pisses everybody off. For the same number of regions.

Still think Total War: Arena was a massive missed opportunity. It was great fun in it's early days but when Wargaming took over it became too numbers based. There was a lot less focus on tactical input and co-ordination with your team mates. My low tier cavalry could still be really useful when used correctly with flanking hammer and anvil tactics until Wargaming took over and it was like "Your charge value is less than their morale value. Say goodbye to half your men." Would be cool to see it attached to a future TW title as a multiplayer option. Was really good fun playing with 3-4 friends and actually feeling like officers that were part of a larger army.

hello 👋. I only rn discovered this game and I really want to play it so from where should I start can u please kindly help 🙏

I never played a lot of the old or in general much of Total War. Only Total War: Warhammer 1 and 2 (Looking forward to 3) and seeing Empire and Napoleon Naval Battle is freaking amazing looking. I'm pretty bummed out they never included that in the Warhammer Series with Naval Battles, they could've really been creative with it sense I always kind of found it dumb fighting with other ships in the ocean and to end up fighting in land.

Medieval 2 still looks so good

wow. cool style! my alltime favorite stays Med2

I always wanted to play one of these since I was a kid

I long for the day that empire 2 will be announced

I think the people who think TWW and TWW2 are boring must be on some kind of crack. How can you think fighting Orcs, Elves, Vampires, Lizardmen, and Daemons is BORING?

Demons arent in the game

I havn't been interested in the Total War-series after Rome 2, but I'm surprised there are so many I havn't even heard of.

Playing since shogun: total war Insane the evolution. Cant wait for the new engine !

I played rome, empire and rome 2, enjoyed them all. Will continue after i finished my AOE II campaign

Try Shogun 2, it's beautiful

I've played Total War games since Rome 1. This year I just got to start playing Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord. I am having a hard time going back to Total War games now... Every single unit being independent feels too awesome to me, it makes me feel like being in the battlefield, it's too damn good. Only downside is not being able to play battles with more than 1000 units, that's the only advantage on TW games atm for me.

I'd also like to give Mount and Blade a try. Which version would you recommend for someone playing it for the first time, coming from Total War? I've played RTW 1, MTW 2 and NTW.

I played Medieval Total War when it came out. My pc was too bad to run the actual battles so i had to auto resolve those and play strategy mode only. Still super fun and addicting game, the music and the sound effects made the game really immersive. This game sparked my interest in history Rome Total War was also super impressive, it made it possible to show realistic looking and full scale armies in 2004

Empire Total War: ability to conquer and colonize, set up trade, etc. would be so cool!

Total War: Medieval II and shogun 2 best of the best :( more love, more animation , good hud ,best fight feeling

This series is aging like a fine wine truly masterpiece from beginning to this day.

Having only played the Warhammer ones I had no idea that Sieges actually used to look pretty cool back in the day

I mainly played rome total war, napoleon total war and shogun total war. My favourite by far is the shogun one because of the setting but boy, sometimes when nostalgia hits me and i watch history videos about napoleon or rome i can spend a good week or two playing hours. And just finished a shimazu campaign today (well, not finished, I won, but its not finished until i conquer everything)

Rome Total War, Medieval 2 Total War and Empire Total War were the greatest of the franchise. Would love to see an Empire 2 Total war including S. America, S. Africa, Australia, China and Antarctica with research capabilities by sending ships on research missions.

I want an empire where they focus more on economy and proper mapping and AI strategy. It made no sense they Included Albany but didn't include New York. Also entire France was represented by only the city Paris. And Spain contained only the city Madrid. Who made that stupid idea? I think they should optimize the game by focusing on size of ongoing map. I feel like one of the largest problem in the game is how they don't allow you to have that feeling of controlling large areas of land or amassing large armies unless you control all of Europe. They should make construction more expensive and upkeep cost very low while keeping recruitment moderate.

As awful as Rome looks now, it was seriously the best thing ever back in the day. And the transition from Rome to Med II literally made my childhood

You say that, but RTW was the first total war game I played and that was only about a year and a half ago. There's something endearing about the low graphics, and they didn't inhibit what to me was the point of the game - to fight battles strategically without zooming in to see the individual men

We Need an empire 2 or medieval 3. That said, I'd be stoked for a modern WWII or something (I know it's overdone in shooter genre, but a massive gunfire total war would be cool. Been a while since one)

I kind of agree but I really think a Civil War era has a lot of potential, if it could include the entire North American Theater with the Caribbean and mesoamerica much like Empire but all the way to America's West Coast and even perhaps Alaska before the Russians sold it so I can be a corner faction with my Streltzy again, then go Stick it to both the North and the South for sucking 😄 I think there could be a lot of potential for that open American West, still lots of tribes who are free, Mexico still being a big player, and even the Mormon's Nauvoo Legion was big enough to Skirmish with the United States Army at one point before they decided to chill and become the Utah National Guard. There is some potential for a campaign there, and the Blackhawk Wars as well as rough as they were, but honestly if War Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce didn't get some kind of campaign I'd throw something.

@@sonofthebearking3335 Civil war would be cool too - really anything with line battles across history could be cool and not really require much effort on them as it wouldn't be "too new". They've remade Rome a few times and done 3 warhammers. If they aren't going to make a LotR brand I at least want a new empire, Napoleonic war, or something in the medieval/dark ages based in Europe.

man, first total war game have better sieges than warhammer 2

Total war but it’s the entire world and tech tree from the 1400 to 1800 with hundreds of playable nations and complete top notch textures.
