Top 5 ABSOLUTE BEST DLC Campaigns In Total War

Ойындар

What do you think? Do you agree with me here, or are there better Total War DLC campaigns than the ones I've spoken about today? Let me know in the comments below!
In this video I tackle the top 5 best Total War DLC campaigns ever released by CA. These are basically expansion style pieces of content that either completely revamp the game or add brand new campaigns and the DLCs I’ve chosen here today after careful consideration are the absolute top 5 in my opinion. There will be some surprises but overall I think you’ll agree!
Total War DLCs for obvious reasons can be quite hit or miss but the 5 I’ve chosen here I think are examples of how good and impactful a DLC campaign can be for the game. Troy Mythos finally gave the game some identity. Caesar in Gaul and Hannibal at the Gates are great replayable additions to Rome 2, Medieval Kingdoms expanded on an already incredible game, Age of Charlemagne essentially made Attila great again and Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai will always be the King of DLC campaigns.
Hope you enjoyed watching it and found it informative. If you did give it a like and drop any comments or questions below let me know if you agree with my list or if you have other top 5 videos you want to see.

    The fact that Medieval 2 total war with the kingdom's expansion, has not one campaign but freaking 4 (!) campaigns with their own settings and factions is just unrivalled gameplay value that CA still haven't done anything that can compare with. Warhammer total war 3 is just starting to go near that.

And you can't seriously compare the sales of a 2023 game like Warhammer 3 to a 2007 game like Medieval 2. Yes, Warhammer is selling big. Dope. But if you don't think a brand new Medieval 3 on modern engines would sell like free sex you're crazy.

    I would have added Rome Total War Barbarian Invasion to the list. It set a precedent for great DLCs. It added a new interesting world with completely different units and factions compared to vanilla RTW. The implementation of religion made for interesting scenarios like pushing the Western Roman Empire towards either Paganism or Christianity. I would only take down Hannibal at the Gates because I just never felt that it was as memorable as other DLCs I have played.

    Unpopular opinion here, but i actually like Wrath of Sparta. I probably have somewhere around 2-300 hours just put into that campaign alone. I mean yeah, hoplite battles are a grindfest and the unit variety is pitiful (can be fixed with unit mods though) but there is just something so satisfying about taking part in the struggle for greek supremacy meanwhile the persians carefully watch over you waiting to strike. The hegemony mechanic also stops you from swarming enemy capitals on turn 3 which forces you into a more dynamic playstyle which i really enjoy,

    Top 5 new campaign mods! Obviously there are a lot for the older titles, but maybe make two video for old and new titles (or even a top 5 for each game), as there are a lot of great mods set in unique start dates in Rome 2 and Attila especially, such as 634 Fire and Sword, The Last Persian, Age of Justinian, Age of Vikings, Greco-Persian Wars, Constantine, Cyrus the Great, etc. There are literally so many that I dare not list them all without typing too much.

    Kingdoms for Mediaeval 2 was a big deal back then, the hotseat campaign was something coming out of dreams back then... But favorite is the one is the AoC for Attila, especially with some mods that you can play the Byzantines. Also Hannibal at the Gates especially if you have time and an experience friend will to go against is probably the best Total War experience I had so far

    Good top, I agree with all except number 5, since I consider that all CA games after Attila are bad, but I understand the context of the video, personally I would have put the Rome I expansions at number 5. On the other hand, the others are indisputable, being for me the best ones of the Attila and Shogun 2, we must make an honorable mention to the Campaign of Belisarius in the Attila, which for me is very interesting, like the one of the Crisis of the 3rd century A.D of Rome II, since it is also one of the best periods that the game takes us to.

Really great timelines, not much effort put on them.
