Badly paced
Rome is a good-adjacent game, of the sort that fills the time but leaves few memories. And boy does it fill the time: clunky mecanics that take over the story aspects for half the game in dreaded, repetitive conquest maps. If you're here for CRPG content and storylines and narratives, you'll be as frustrated as I was slogging through these parts trying to reach the next story content. It picks up (kind of) in the third part of the game, which introduces a dose of tongue-in-cheek humorous references that at least brighten the repetitive mecanics. It also helps that by then you should have hoarded enough RSS not to need to micromanage your armies. You can just steamroll the enemies and rush it. Ironically, where the game shines is the last part. Where things finally feel urgent and dense and like the stakes do matter, as do your choices. If you have time to spare and the money, try it, I guess. But I can't say it scratched any itch I had. If anything, it sent me back to the previous franchise iteration which I then played twice, in a row, so there's that.
Hilft dir das weiter?
