BASED OP

I'm really so excited to see Darren eventually bleed out all his money and be forced on the street like the little cunt he is. What an idiot. He just blew up all his bridges.

ROLL YA DOGS

>the pointlessly tall

he stuck to his morally right principles
a good guy

>She actually gave me a very nice goodbye message while she was at gamescom during my last week. She's one of the good ones in my books.
Did they fuck?

But user, there's a mod for it :^)

>The campaign is...shit, it's just shit

Nothing you said is related to TW aside from Darren. You're just a legitimately terrible human being

tfw no qt dreadlord gf

>no reload animations for the majority of units

Remove this one. Most of them have reload animations. A lot of them better animated than most total war reload animations.

that mod is such shit
>literally every map is some crossroads

fuck off, grace

GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

roll for the great jew plan

>most

You mean crossbows?

What do you gain from lying on the internet?

Gave her the D(arren)

well that's how small villages usually are user

>Most of them have reload animations.
???

Have you never played with any guns/ arty?

Last I checked artillery units from the Empire and Dwarfs dont, unless they added those recently?

>implying diplomacy will ever, ever be good

wew lad

>Forts in Empire total war


Don't trigger me. I remember losing a whole stack inside a fort because clicking on a fort caused the game to crash on release. So if you stationed your army in a fort you lost it forever.


Please have forts in warhammer CA

>spend the past few months pointing out flaws in warhammer

truly /ourguy/
Also funny how said shills seem to be magically absent, why hasn't the thread not been buried under the weight of "muh resources" posters? They did get btfo by darren in like the first 10 mins of his vid though lol.

Handgunners down either. They also just fire through each other, no rank or kneeling fire.

*muffled sins of the father in the distance*

Those aren't really most units though. Still, it is pretty weird that they don't have reload animations when fucking ungor raiders and crossbowmen have really well done reload animations.

Rollering

>not the perfect golden goose people shill it as and could be better

When have people been saying it was? Unless you've been browsing shill central Reddit

32:30 for what is wrong with this community

Needs a Darren edit

>flaws in warhammer
just like in every other total war?
warhammer is far from perfect, but so is every other total war game (sadly)

PERFECT TOTAL WAR GAME WHEN?? going by darren probably never ;_;

>you now know that Darren did all of those videos secretly hating every second of it

>now

kek

oo I didn't know he did other let's plays

He likes the battles but finds the sieges and campaign shit

And he's right

What was that about Warcraft Total War being on the table in the last thread? Source?

mite b cool if they could just go with an alternate timeline starting from just after frozen throne

...

I still enjoy WH1. I will enjoy WH2. I also enjoy some of the previous historicals. And all your implication arrows can't change that.

>battle AI is acceptable
>siege and campaign AI is fucking stupid

gee

implication arrow

>tfw javelins

>the men are wavering

...

Am I the only person in the world who actually likes not having these full on settlement battles?
It actually lets you have honest field battles instead of only cheesy siege/settlement battles.

#
>And he called the campaign map shit, specifically because it's undeniably simplified. Game is like a 6 or 7 for him.
I actually agree with all of this and this is coming from a 'drone'. With our act mods the vanilla campaign is just bleh. I especially don't like how their are now negative effects for most buildings. It's really just build the good thing and that's it.

Like I can't play the campaign with out some type of mod. It's impossible.

I enjoyed the Bretonnian campaign 2bh

Warhammers campaign is shit, but it has the best battles in the series.

this tbqh, still hoping for the next historical title to go on where Attila left off

I would rather see more Total War games from 80s-90s book or D&D universes instead of an already franchized universe.

maybe Dragonlance? Wheel of Time? Hell, even Dune would be cool.

Same. Honestly Darren was pretty fair, to be honest. A 6/7, for the base game with no DLC, is a just judgment. It's personally an 8 for me, but that's because I really like Warhammer.

Shogun 2 is still the best Total War, Shittila be damned.

shame they're so short

Settlement battles can get really tiring compared to field battles, but I still really want them to be a thing.


Medieval 2 sieges can fuck off though

>Like I can't play the campaign with out some type of mod. It's impossible.

Most total wars 2bh

> remember one chickk quit CA job

I wonder how much guys at CA hate Darren

Who gave her the dildo? Was Darren?

>Having armies with just 600 men is just stupid, it's total war for fuck's sake

Literally what people have been saying here, Darren truly is /ourguy/

>Those aren't really most units though
In turns of no. of units, yes that is most units.

That's 13 units right there, which is more than the amount of ranged units who do have reload animations (not counting wood elves who obviously all share the same animations)

Thanks user I'm seeing the doctor about my laugh now

for fuck sake I missed all the action
I browse this fucking general with it's shitty repetitive maymays every day with the dabbing goblins and accruing elf domination copy pasta but when something fresh happens I'm fapping for the first time in weeks

PLEASE tell me there's a video I can watch, or someone give me a timestamp for the vod

>Darren is in this thread RIGHT NOW

>not most units
>0 artillery units reloading
>0 gunpowder units reloading
>archers and crossbowmen reloading constitutes most

Except on certain hugboxes that's pretty much what people have been saying. I do think that having actual objectives like in WH2 is a step forward in fixing that though.

Once upon a time a 7 was a pretty good score for things. When reviewing actually made sense and wasn't just praising things for clicks. I'm indifferent on Attila, as a game the period leaves me beyond cold.

The part where he destroys sieges because they are supposed to be a mainstay of the game is gold

Why are bridge battles crossed?

No us 'shills' are just people who thought it would be better to learn how to mod than anything else, heck some guy has been working for like 6 months to get advanced AI working

>fucking cabbages
>its lettuce

dumb dog poster

>archers and crossbowmen reloading constitutes most
I mean yeah. Only empire and Dwarfs have gunpowder units, most ranged stuff in warhammer is bows or xbows.

Added to TWW1 with a mod and coming in TWW2, I guess.

>People talk about STUFF that happened related to their interests
Wow user, you might be on to something here.

>Wheel of Time total war
>Use the Nynaeve LL
>She just stands there tugging her braid for half the battle

see Archers don't even reload, they don't reach for their quiver to take another arrow, they just shoot, don't confuse the act of shooting a bow with reloading.

/videos/170491449

>It's nothing to do with them or their quality of work okay I did just pick apart an animation but I feel like if they had more time they could fix that and the time constraint is the budget constraint
Total war warhammer 2 delayed for a month like warhammer 1 when?

28m31s in the video. Bonus 50m46s for one of his rants on sieges

Pretty sure they have been confirmed for WH2

They need a year to make a true AAA game.

>sieges because they are supposed to be a mainstay of the game

wot

Don't know but definitely not him he still poor

So should I be awakening tribes now since the Foundation update? How does this change things?

archers reach into the void

>Warhammer sieges are shit
>They are supposed to be a mainstay of the game
>So he doubles down on them

What's so difficult

Its not really necessary unless you want to unlock Sigvald now. You can just defeat their chief in battle and vasselize them

>Arthas will never have a redemption arc despite doing most of the evil shit he did while being mindfucked by a sword AND manipulated by evil mastermind
>But Sylvanas who did most of her shit out of pure spite, hatred, paranoïa and sheer madness will, also she is Warchief now, because Kosak REALLY want to fap to her.
End my suffering please

Yes. They are your vassals with a new loyal personality type IIRC

>>But Sylvanas who did most of her shit out of pure spite, hatred, paranoïa and sheer madness will, also she is Warchief now, because Kosak REALLY want to fap to her.
>caring about post-TFT/vanilla lore this much

I don't get the mainstay of the game part. I never thought Medieval 2 or shogun 2 sieges were the mainstay of those two games.

What the fuck am I looking at here exactly..
