    Thanks Andy! I would love to play the 1212 AD Attila Mod but when I play in 4k the interface and writing is so small and playing in 2k or 1080p looks too blurry. Does anyone have any insight or a fix for the interface/UI size or the ideal way to play it?

    • @AndysTake
      @AndysTake 17 часов назад

      My pleasure! And I know, the fact that CA has yet to implement UI scaling in any TW between Empire-Attila (except Rome 2) is atrocious to say the least! It virtually makes Empire, Napoleon, Shogun 2 and Attila almost unplayable in the next few years, and I'm currently "suffering from success" since as you say, they do not scale with 4K monitors at all...

    I have over 150 hours into Field of Glory Kingdoms as the Byzantine Empire, and I have survived. Barely. Numerous civil wars, rebellions, and coups prove that even on the easiest levels this is indeed a challenging game. At least for the Eastern Romans that is. I have found it very entertaining and challenging. Thanks for your reviews!

They make the best historical introduction to TW titles and/or Manor Lords, Medieval Dynasty, etc. Keep up with the great work

    "Looks so much better" Cap cap cap you fricken lie dude we have eyes it's a bloody eyesore OG Rome looks so much better-- this one looks terrible in almost every aspect. The colors are way too saturated, the textures are absolute dogwater (the textures of buildings legit look better in og rome) The whole screen just looks like they submerged the camera in Vaseline. The new campaign map is such Sid Meiers knock off garbage. They do the bare minimum, make almost everything look worse compared to the original with the sole exception of unit models and textures-- with NO NEW animations, no new AI, no new nothing for the better I'd be willing to bet, and asking $30 on Steam-- 2 years later I'll add-- the temerity!!! CA can literally do no right! All they are capable of doing now is grifting. Genuinely surprised they didn't cut out original factions to try and sell back to the player as DLC. I spit on their entire studio. Like legit compare this new cash grab POS to the ABSOLUTELY PERFECT AND MASTERFUL TOTAL CONVERSION EUROPA BARBORUM MOD made by CA 10 years ago, FOR FREE, a true labor of love-- that added A TON OF FACTIONS, A TON OF UNITS, A NEW GOVERNMENT SYSTEM AND EVENTS, HISTORICAL CLIFF NOTES, IMPROVED TEXTURES AND VISUALS. Get the original Rome for cheap and install EB and you can get literally a thousand hours of entertainment out of it.

Same layout , same controls, same mehanics just different skins. They should follow the steps of Dominations. They made high quality not pay2win mobile strategy game. (The game is from the devs of Rise of nations, which was also PC game) .

The battle maps also actually look so beautiful whereas warhammer 3 has maps that are sometimes straight up awful to look at.

    On Shogun 2 the AI waited over 10 turns to ambush me, I was moving my Daimyo with a few elites to another stack so about 1k (I play with everything on ultra) and the AI ambushed me with 14k Ashigaru units, mostly spears😱 I thought it was the end of my Daimyo, forgot to save so it was too late to go back further without losing momentum. First thing I did was move around the map a bit, that forced the enemy to follow and get tired, after that I was able to better analyze the terrain I found a spot where they bottlenecked for a little bit and I kept attacking them there to lower morale, then I would have to swing around multiple times, tiring the enemy. Finally once I saw that their morale was shocked, I dismounted some units at the bottleneck I found and swong the others to hit behind them and poof, those Ashigaru didn't stand a chance, I routed archers first then the spears, I dismounted some of the units because of the spears to hold a line while I took the rest to smash into their back line. I bought Shogun 2 in 2009, it was my first Steam game, I keep playing because more than what kind of units or how many units, tactics matters the most, that's what I want CA, that depth, so I defeated an army of 14k Ashigaru in an open field with only 1k elite units with tactics and it took a long time over an hour, why can't I get this from some of the other TW games, I'm looking at you WH and 3K.
