Very solid game.

I’m new to Total War and I understand the hate this game got because of all the bugs upon its release, but let me tell you, this game is very solid and you’ll immerse yourself in it. So far, I have Shogun II which is an amazing game as well but I like this period more, and Medieval II which is also amazing. The graphics are very good although some people might complain about them for some reason, and the battles run extremely smooth. I’ve been playing now for about a good two weeks and I’ve experienced no crashes or bugs whatsoever. Everything is running perfect. The diplomacy, trade, construction systems, etc, all work flawlessly and I really have nothing bad to say about this game. Maybe some loading screens take a bit long but you just gotta be patient and that’s it. I’m running it on a very high performance late 2015 4GHz iMac so maybe that’s why I’m experiencing no problems whatsoever but maybe turning down the graphics a little will allow for smooth gameplay on an older computer. Good luck and I think this game is definitely worth the money, if you’ve never played a TW there’s no game like them and this is a solid one with a very interesting period.
