What it lacks in the depth of its sister total war games it makes up for in endless replay-ability. Ultimately all gripes boil down to "Damn I want this game to be EVEN BETTER." Theres drama every time a DLC is released because of how hungry people are for this or that thing which should show you how unhealthy of an obsession this game can suck you into. Fun to play despite siege battles, the occasional funky mechanic and neutered horde mechanics but I still keep playing it. Original game goes on sale regularly (75% at time of writing) so does this game (66% currently) and honestly, ~45 dollars is worth every penny.
