CA should give the mod community a map editor and other tools to take the game further and further. It was up to the mod community to add some depth to something as shallow as this. CA on the other hand adds some things to the game that people wanted 5 years later? They are not going to come back and revamp the entire thing and add more depth to the game. Too many game companies promise things and never deliver.look at the disaster of Paradox Imperator Rome game.what a mess-now Paradox is reworking all the core mechanics and rethinking the game.back to the drawing board.at least they listened to the players and are going to fix their game. Still not to the level it could or should have been. is there any? I only played this game after I had to mod the hell out of it to get to the level that I could enjoy it. The price is absurd-the game was not a finished product-on release it seemed it was alpha state-now fixed a few bugs, but does not have a well thought out mechanics- the ai on the campaign barely works and the battle ai is well. They are not so you you will need to use a faction unlocker mod to make them work. Sorry, but there's no "should have been part of the game originally" here, because that would have been a completely unrealistic level of content for the price.Īll the factions should be unlocked from the start. It's not like the DLC factions are the same as they were at launch, they've each had new content added which elevates them above the non-playable minor factions they were to begin with. I mean I know you play mostly with mods, but still. But it's also a huge game with tons and tons of content, and even without any DLC it's still a big game with a lot of content.Īlso you've been playing this long enough to see the factions being upgraded over time with their DLC content, which we've then all benefited from as they patched them into everyone's games.

You really expect them to include 36 playable factions (over three times what Rome 1 had, and over twice the high water mark of the series at 17 playable factions that Medieval 2 had) all for the price of the base game? Sure, if you buy everything at full price it's expensive.

Originally posted by BRAN MAC BORN:Well if you want to play certain factions then you have to get the dlc for them-BUT they all should have been part of the game originally. Long story short, the base game has plenty for you to be getting on with. If you see one you particularly like, or there's a faction you really want to play immediately (for example Sparta, Athens or Epirus, which you'll need the Greek States Culture Pack to play,) there's no harm picking it up too. Similar is true of Unit Packs (AI has the niche units, you only need the DLC to use them in your own armies,) and Campaign Packs (you only need buy the DLC if you want to play the campaign, or in Caesar in Gaul and Hannibal at the Gates cases, if you want to play the campaign or play the Grand Campaign factions they add.)Īll in all, there's plenty in the base game to enjoy and the DLC is completely optional. You still get to fight against the fully upgraded factions, with their complete DLC rosters even without the DLC. So you don't need to buy any of the Culture Packs unless you actually want to play as those factions. Basically that's hundreds of hours of gameplay just with the base game.Īlso all the Culture Pack DLC factions have been added to everyone's games in patches, for the AI to use in Grand Campaign and for multiplayer compatibility.

The base game alone has the Grand Campaign with 14 playable factions, covering all the major and some of the minor players of the era, as well as the Imperator Augustus campaign which has 10 playable factions and covers the war of the Second Triumvirate (Julius Caesar's heirs fighting to become the first Emperor of Rome.) Plus Historical Battles, Custom Battles, various Multiplayer etc. There is a discount (- 86%) on Fanatical should I take the DLC or only the Emperor Edition ? Are the Rome II DLC worth getting ?
