Unsurprisingly Total War: Rome II delivers the goods. The Creative Assembly have near-dominated the grand strategy genre for many years with only Paradox Interactive able to compete in terms of gameplay, and yet miles behind in terms of production values and audience. Total War: Rome II is every bit the modern strategy experience that fans of the franchise will be expecting and while there are many new ideas that core audiences will question, the overall outcome is one which is wholly positive. Total War: Rome II is one of the finest modern strategy videogames available to PC gamers today.
Total War: Rome II launched 10 years ago today, and remains a staple in the grand strategy genre in PC gaming.
From underrated Xbox One launch titles to absolute emperors of the strategy genre, history heads will love these games based around Ancient Rome.
Ryse was awesome, i have no idea why it wasnt recieved well and why we havnt seen another, Rome conquered so much, you could take the action anywhere, and it looked great when xbox one came out, now would be even better.

And while they can be incredibly fun to play, their historical accuracy is often pretty shaky. Don’t get me wrong, in recent years developers have started to work harder to get facts right, but we’re still far from reality. Today we will explore 4 big games that butchered the chapters of history they are based on."
EA tried to market Battlefield 1 as an epic WW1 period piece. It was really just a hybrid of stripped down Battlefield 4 and Star Wars Battlefront (2015) disguised as WW1 shooter.
So you you are telling me historically you cant jump off a ten story building into hay and live.
