Absolutely incredible game both extremely fun and completely entrancing in terms of time. If you want to kill time, this is the game to do it in.

The only negatives I can give to the game are these;

- Visually its beautiful but it lacks the grit that warhammer should bring, yes the effects are cool and you can still have armies covered in eachothers blood and such but there is a bit too much colour to the world something that the first warhammer total war game did very nicely.

- The lack of a day/night cycle. Now this one is contentious but I actually really love the mod that provides the day and night cycle and it would be a great oppertunity for the devs to bring some grim dark beauty to the night even mechanics for things from the lore. I realise there is no way to really calculate time like that in the game but it would be a wonderful "optional" thing that would add a lot of atmosphere and immersion to the game frankly. Especially night time battles.

- Corruption. This ones interesting, corruption and how it was visually before seemed darker and not only that but the way it was removed in my opinion was better as well. It gave me a much more important reason to built captains and so fourth to push back against it. So I do wish they would go back to the first games manner of dispelling it just with a bit more efficiency. I understand the reasons for them changing it but I honestly preferred it as it was.

- City visual conversions & region trading. So there are mods for this but its not entirely without bugs and this is something that irks me because you should be able to see a visual change in the cities when conquered (though there is some arguement as to why they shouldn't) this will make it easier for people to keep track of their cities but also just make it generally more immersive say someone wants to reclaim the entire world from the "stone dwelling" men and rebuild the woods well you cant do that by conquering cities and living in stone homes as wood elves thats dumb.

City trading as well is something that irks me you should be able to trade regions/cities with allies in order to help them survive on harder difficulties and give them more options but also for immersive purposes too if you're trying to create your own story in the campaign while following the games own narrative sort of a head cannon. I realise there would be balance issues but it would be so good to have this.

Finally 1 more;

MORE ENVIROMENTAL SOUNDS FOR REGIONS, the map feels too quiet there is almost no ambience at least in my opinion.


But thats it, aside from those things I adore this game, its absolutely wonderful.
