@@Snotlingfondler I have a very good pc and I still play the older ones more. The warhammer games are frustrating to me because of how much the AI is able to cheat, even inside of battles. Your units don't pursue units correctly, they seem to be able to detach whenever they want and your units will just stand there doing nothing even if you've previously told them to fight, the battles are so absurdly quick because of how ridiculous every units dps is, and the sieges are so unbelievably bad. Outside of battles the ai has infinite money, can always have multiple full stacks, takes no attrition, has absurd casualty replenishment, and only attacks with overwhelming force so you constantly need to spam either ambushes or lightning strike. Your garrisons are also near useless because the ai will never attack you unless the odds are ridiculously in its favour. Honestly I'd still advise people play the lord of the rings mods for medieval 2 ahead of the warhammer games unless all the want is pure spectacle.

I wish they'd make Medieval 3 by building upon Medieval 2 rather than building upon the more modern games. Include the quality of life changes obviously, but there's a lot that got lost along the development of the franchise.

THANK FUCKING GOD, MEDIEVAL II AND LEGENDOFTOTALWAR AT THE SAME TIME, MISSED SO MUCH✨😭

Nice to see a campaign again, I like the battles you do but the reason I watched your channel In the first place was for the campaign strategy and how you play things out, great to see and hopefully more campaign stuff in the future.

Been some time since I saw a good ol' forced draw-out!

We need more M2TW content!!!

FINALLY some good fakin FOOD

The Kingdoms expansion for M2TW was so bloody good, all 4 of the campaigns were great.

Mate its such a treat to watch you play Medieval 2 👍

Honestly, as others said, I too wouldn't mind a part 2. Feels good to see again some Medieval 2 and the nostalgia effect really be hitting, damn.

In all my years of playing RTW, only once did I have a truly anomalous general in terms of age. It was a Bruttii campaign and the guy lived to be 100, and his bodyguard alone grew to over 200 men. He had the trait Horribly scarred, which struck fear in children AND his enemies.

Wow I think I started watching you to get better at medieval and Rome way back in the day. What a blast from the past to watch these old total war games again. Imo they still feel so much more epic than the games we get nowadays bar the total warhammer series due to why those games need to feel different. Hope u post more in the future!

Med 2 is in my top 5 favorite games of all time was the first RTS I really dove into and I love seeing you play it! Great video

That is what we want to see.

4:30 ''You could send spies in there', but that requires a bit of luck'. Knowing your luck in M2TW that's probably why you don't use spies that way. Like that time you sent 2 spies with a 95% chance of success and both failed and died :-D Nice to see Medieval 2 total war again.

Damn, the maps in the WH feel claustrophobic by comparison.

The maps feel so much larger than in warhammer! You can actually use your cav. I think medieval 2 and attila have the best cav feel. Every other total war you just spam ranged or shitstacks for autoresolve. Thank you for this vid! Hope to see med3 some day.

Ah yes, the become vassal cheese. Works like a charm whenever you're desperate.

An old Legend subscriber here. Let me tell you having not watched any of the fantasy Total War game videos, it is funny hearing Legend critique the controls on Medieval 2 compared to the newer games. A few years back, Legend would say Medieval II beat the piss out of most of the newer TW titles. Thanks for the nostalgia and its a humorous reminder of how times and people change.

My God atmosphere of Medieval 2 is something else. I've just returned to my early teenager years lol.

"Help, help i m beeing represt", " BLODDY PEASANT!"

Wow I was JUST playing Medieval 2 yesterday, what a coincidence!

Glory to the cymraeg!!

Yo, we doin medieval 2 again? Fuck ya Bois!

Omg I’ll send my Attila disaster campaign. The WRE is about to fall.

I'll sometimes dig through Legend's old playlists and videos simply because I enjoy seeing the gameplay of the historical titles. Very pleased to see this one pop up in the feed!

As someone still relatively new to TW, I'm a huge fan of the disaster campaign videos. So much to learn from; how things can go wrong and how to get out of it. Hope to see more of them in the future.

I'm a relatively new fan since I started watching you with Warhammer 3. But this was an awesome video and would be great to see more of the other total war games that you get submissions for. I'm considering getting this game now after watching it.

The amount of nostalgia from this video was insane. Reminds me of the good old days when the legend's content was actually good.

Especially the soundtrack of the Britannia campaign was awesome, loved it

Man I forgot how good all the banners looked in Medieval 2, been a few couple years since I touched it. Something about seeing all the little banners and whatnot as units gain experience really makes you feel like they're veterans fighting for their country, particularly as a group of knights charge superior numbers.

just when I started playing med2 again

"Nottingham is on the verge of revolting" truer words have never been said

I thought I clicked on an old vid, glad to see you back on the Med II grind.

Thanks for uploading this Legend. I know you said in your DM on twitter that you were undecided. Glad you have, looking forward to watching this

A quality of life feature I noticed that isn't in Warhammer is at least the unit markings (when you drag them out) show up with contrast depending on the terrain colour. That would be a nice feature to turn on. Snow battles with arrows and white markings kind of suck.

lol I love how youtube didn't recommend me a single one of your videos after the last one of your med 2 videos I watched years and years ago, but gave me this one

Very nice! I watched the last Medieval 2 a few months ago and waited for the next one which is here right now. I hope I can watch it this weekend. And I only watched Medieval 2 disasters.

Wild that this is just a bit over a year since I sent you my replay. Great as always. I've gotten really good as the Byzantines to the point where I've won twice as them on VH/VH on long.

Yo I loved this one.

'The Welsh came soo hard and fast'......thats what sheep said 😂

amazing! Thank you for the M2TW content, and the Britain map too

Part 2 would be a lot shorter than part 1 at least. I don't know if the original player could reasonably pull their bootstraps up from that, even with the big boost you've given them. I do like Medieval 2 every once in a while, thanks Legend.

Even though I've never played Medieval 2, watching You play is just as interesting in any Total War game. I'd love to see part 2

Oh man i would absolutely love a part 2, this was so much fun to watch!!
