Rome II is still unplayable in sieges and by the looks of things nothing's going to change in later patches. for crying out loud, in its current form IT'S PLAYABLE. Sometimes I wonder whether I'm the only one who actually enjoys Empire. While both are Warscape, they're different as hell. That's an interesting comparison you have there lad. ETW is a buggy mess, but it's such a nice buggy mess, there are so many things to play around with, it is one of the best TW for role-playing, imo. The three government systems, ministers and elections provided for a great way of depicting "internal politics", much better than Rome II one. Having a revolution and turning into a Republic by turn 3, gaining the everlasting hatred of every European monarch, just to kick their butt was great. Definitely ETW, after all, the TW game that allows me to take a 6th rate frigate, call it Surprise and with it (and a crapton of micro) take a Spanish Galleon with twice our men and twice our guns in an epic one on one duel, has already made my day.Įmpire really has the fun and immersion factor on his side, despite all the bugs it can still provide for awesome experiences.I like both of them, both have things I enjoy or find interesting.More of the things that ETW introduced actually worked and were fun, while very few of Rome II novelties work or are fun, so I'd lean towards ETW.Rome II, of course, but I think ETW has better aesthetic, and everything comes together to create immersion.ETW was the first game on the new engine, it was the first game focused on non melee combat and gunpowder, it was a bold move, Rome II had to be the sequel/remake of the most beloved and iconic game in the series, Rome II had the biggest shoes to fill, and it has proven to have small feet, too small.I think Rome II AI is better and more sophisticated, but it's bugged in a more debilitating manner, at the end of the day ETW vanilla AI is the only TW AI that ever managed to bankrupt me and Rome II AI is the only one who has ever managed to build itself into starvation.I cannot speak of the release, as I did not experience ETW's one, nor the hype before it.

Right now I prefer ETW, believe it or not, but with vanilla ETW in its current state I have had loads of fun (226 hours, all in vanilla), granted, I only got it when it was completely patched, I didn't have a PC capable to run it when it came out. New features such as naval battle, theatres, revolutions, etc., really add to the gameplay, contrary to Rome 2.īoth, but maybe XVIIth to XIXth centuries slightly more because I've spent a lot of time to search and read documents to prepare mod, and now I've a better knowledge of this era than Rome 2 one.Įmpire. Wich game had better implemented new features?Įmpire, despite its flaws.particularly when focusing marketing on such feature)Įmpire.

Rome 2 (5 years after Empire, it was the least that CA can do.

Wich had bigger shoes to fill? (Rome 2 being the sequel for rome, Empire being the first full gun focused total war).

Right now, I prefer Empire AI in campaign, but it's because it had been possible to tweak parameters and "optimize" its behaviours. Empire AI didn't have to handle siege equipments, one of the Rome 2's AI great flaws for example. However line infantry in NTW is too weak for me to really enjoy the battles.I prefer Empire interface, but Rome 2 is not that bad, its interface is more simple, the idea was good but not the result, Rome 2 UI being sometime confusing.Īgain, difficult to tell. I do like how riflemen were very different from regular light infantry instead of riflemen just being light infantry with longer range. All your infantry are glorified milita in battle your best troops fight the exact same way as your milita. No point in liberating anyone either because it is much worth it to keep the region for tax money.įor battles they do look nicer in NTW but they are some problems. The new diplomacy features are pointless because the lines are already drawn, and the new options when conquring a city are pretty pointless aswell, plundering cities is never worth it because the money you get is one time only so you can't invest in your armies and odds are your gonna use alot of it to fix up the region. NTW did add alot of new features but alot of them are pointless. Navies are also rather pointless in the campagin. But the tech tree is pretty much worthless, there is less factions and the main campagin is either you fighting napoleon or being him. Napoleon looks better, runs better, has alot less glitches. More factions, a much better tech tree, more factions and they all play differently in the campagin, bigger campagin map, and overall better battle mechanics (NTW looks ALOT nicer though).
