An Eastern Roman campaign played to completion i.e. There are four main issues I have: poorly implemented mechanics, faction identity, the Huns and late game.įor the record I have played three main campaigns in Attila. I think Attila gives the image of a good game but it is fundamentally flawed.
I think those 300+ hours (admittedly a fair chunk of that is in Age of Charlemagne) I have spent on the game are a rather misleading reflection of the game’s worth. I have 300hrs of playtime on the fucker, so clearly I don’t hate it, but it did leave me a bit cold and I think there is a lot wrong with the game. I’ll save the retrospective on the series as a whole for another day and instead focus on the most recent of the historical series Total War: Attila. I like these games, in part for their own merits and in part because I have never seen a game that adequately offered an alternative to their grand strategy plus real times battles formula.
Over a decade I have enjoyed and complained about these games, even dipping my toes into online communities such as TWcentre and the Total War subreddit, even though normally I would avoid gamers like the fucking plague. The Total War series is the gaming franchise I have stuck with the longest.
