OK 5 stars despite the title. It is an unigue and good game. However, I was told it replaces TH3 feelings- not IT DOES NOT. Still recommended.
As in the title- a timeless classic. The only thing that should be changed is the highest difficulty scalling (my personal opinion) and maybe penalty at higher difficulties. The reason is it plain and simple derives you from sim builder's fun= the best tactic is to keep majority cities low developed. Otherwise- a pinnacle of gaming.
What can I add . Not that much but... DISABLE question marks and use quest tracking only when you are lost. Seriously- do it- this alone will elevate TW3 from GOTY to once lifetime experience. Apart from that .......this game, this game is one of these you may, if you are lucky, play decennial. For me it's up right there with FF7 and, seriously, I never thought I will say sth like that. Sure, leveling could be better so could be the crafting. Fighting may be more varied when it comes to enemy skills and tactics (please note expansions are much better here) but.... The storytelling is easily second to none in gaming, each single character is deep, mature and just realistic. The immersion of the world (again when one turns off question marks and quest tracking) is unparalleled. The quest composition and moral choices OMG are hands down the best I have ever seen (TW1.. Red dead redemption and Persona come close but no cigar...). So many times I walked away from my rig to think what just happened or which choice I should pick and so many times it was like ....wow DID I really do that? Really? OMFg...... This is one of the games that define genre and will be remembered for years to come...
