Yes
Chase King
no, just buy Rome TW and play with mods
Oliver Scott
which mod would you recommend?
Michael Brooks
don't listen to him, don't fall for nostalgia meme
Dylan Evans
With mods it's nice. Vanilla is garbage, don't listen to the shills who say it was fixed.
Josiah Robinson
rome2 does literally everything better than rome 1 tho.
Jose Torres
It's good. I loved it. You can check reviews if you want. With mods it's even better.
Lucas James
just get atilla tbqh, unless you really want that specific period
Colton Hill
...
Adam Jones
It was fixed
William Foster
If you really like the period, go for it
But if you want gameplay, grab Atilla instead

Attila is a better game than Rome 2 in just about every way
though apparently some people (plebs) dislike the setting
Cooper Rogers
I already own Rome though. So I'd like to spice it up with some mods instead of buying the shitty new one that everyone hates.
Luis Walker
europa barbarorum would be nice i guess
Brandon Scott
All historical CA TW games are varying degrees of unplayable as vanilla and specially near lunch. Then they get icreasingly better as time goes along and CA attmpts patching and the modders have time to fix, improve and add stuff.
Tl;dr worth with mods - same for both r1 and r2
Lincoln Gray
But the setting is shit!
Elijah Rivera
is this mod pack good one?

the game is absolutely fine now with the patches and mods
Thomas Powell
No don't waste your money
Dropped it after 6 hours and I have hundreds of hours in Rome 1/shogun 2/warhammer
Attila is meant to be pretty good though
David Murphy
The game is mechanically broken. I. E. Shields don't block arrows, they just have a chance to maybe work even in defensive stances.
Last time I played there was no guard mode either so all battles became big blobs and the capture zones were stupid
Josiah Bennett
>Shields don't block arrows, they just have a chance to maybe work
thats how it worked IRL too you fucking moron. Arrows had high chance to penetrate or go by their shields and hit leg or arm etc
Colton Harris
>last time I played
There's your problem. The game is good now. Try it.
Julian Nguyen
Bought at a heavy discount a year ago an played a few hours. Dropped it and haven't looked back. Not only is the game itself dogshit, Rome is extremely boring and unappealing as a setting. Shogun 2 and even Napoleon are leagues ahead of that turd of a game.
Justin Williams
Not in defensive positions like tetsudo or whatever it's called. Worked much better in previous games.
So there is guard mode and no capture zones? I may redownload and try it if that's the case. I need guard mode in armies, it's essential for blocking routes
Lincoln Edwards
Now it is great.
It has some god-tier mods available.
Luke Rivera
arrows can still penetrate the shields, there was many cases when shield holders hurt their hand or arm when blocking arrows with shield
Thomas Ortiz

Grayson Davis

like what?

Since no one is talking about the mods i'll spoonfeed:
steamcommunity.com
Radious is a meme mod, makes the game extremely arcadey and i absolutely hate it, very unrealistic but if that's what you want you can use this
steamcommunity.com
Divide et Impera is basically the most polishing you can do with the turd that is rome 2. It's a fantastic game with global auxiliary system (not exclusive to rome), much harder economy management, reform systems(roman reforms, and other countries all have reforms automatically) and the new version i think has a population system.
Easton Bailey
reccomended mods for Attila?
Ethan King
Fall of the Eagles updates the unit appearences to be much more historically accurate and slows down the battles a bit
Adam Turner
does it also apply to Charlemagne?
Aaron Price
It's really not that good in my opinion. It's very slow paced and I feel like the city management is nowhere near as interesting or nuanced as previous games.
I do really like the politics system which is interesting, but I got a lot more mileage out of Rome, Shogun 2, and even Napoleon, than I did out of Rome 2. YMMV.
David Peterson
There's a seperate version for it called Knights of the Oriflamme
