Also, you have to laugh at the irony of seeing the tech trees so "Zen minimalistic" yet the game can give you beautiful minimalist graphics for the low / medium graphics.

AI sucks, you can charge against an unit and the unit will not react. And if you want to move an unit out of the combat, it will not obey.

And the "Realm Divided" could be fun if it was an actual battle royale, not 1 vs all, despite you don't even own half of Japan, and you still have to fix the cities because you must waste time to not feel how boring the game really is.

Another fun thing is, Sh2 in low graphics it's like Sh1, yet people consider Sh2 the "perfect game" just because it looks good.

Shogun 2 >the perfect TW game because all city battle maps are the same The quality standards this days are sooo low. Imagine if urban combat were great and fun to play, like in CoH, but adapted to the technology of the era the game is based on.

>it's boring, the diplomacy sucks (Ikko-Ikki now are friends with everyone EVEN THE SHOGUNATE, despite being schizo-zealots) they usually aren't, but you have 14 provinces and a direct threat to the survival of the Shogunate, because of your power >religion doesn't matter at all (it's just % idolatry; no gods, no roleplay, no gods' favors, etc.) You want an arcadey mechanic, where you can summon a buddhist army out of nowhere after filling up a "belief" bar or something? There are actual events, which are religious in nature. Also monks can convert other character, incite rebellions, convert and help with your research. >morale sucks (samurai's honor where?) It actually simulates real warfare, which is based on morale and not completely wiping out an enemy unit in a straight-up fight. >combat is boring and tedious because micromanagement, plus units don't obey or are bugged in sieges You don't need to micromanage units desu, at least not much. There are only one or two siege maps, which are bugged, when it comes to large unit sizes and units not obeying and it's usually fixed by giving them an order with a different formation, where you aren't trying to get them perfectly into a tight space.

The problem with Realm Divide is that it is trying to simulate two entirely separate events. First is the fall of the Ashikaga Shogunate, when Oda Nobunaga bumrushed the capital like he was speedrunning real life. This aggro'd many other daimiyo against Nobunaga. But the 'real' realm divide happened much later, under Tokugawa, when a power struggle led to the Battle of Sekigahara and Tokugawa's ultimate victory. By conflating the first with the second, you end up with a situation where you've grown to large (like Nobunaga) so everyone is against you (like Tokugawa).

Shogun 2 has 2 selling points: 1. The battles which are the best in the franchise. Fall of the Samurai has the best gunpowder battles in the entire franchise too. 2. Cav can dismount and fight on foot. This is probably the lost technology that I wish for the most to come back because horses don't do shit against castle walls.

Protip: those "good" TW games are just the ones that had decent launches that weren't bugged to fuck. So people remember them as being "good". Hence why Attila is remembered as being a "good" TW game even though it's a reskin of Rome 2 which is a "bad" TW game because it had a horrendous launch. Though not as bad a launch as Empire, another "bad" TW game.

Real reason it’s good is because a small arr rook da same roster allows the AI to actually play the game.

You need to install mods to bring new units and sometimes it doesn't even change the game, because it's too simple, even the map sucks. Once you install mods like "Total FotS Series" which is a really ambitious mod the game still sucks, the ai still sucks and nothing really change because it's still too arcade but with more uniforms. The last hope, for me, is grand tactician napoleonic wars

Wasn't Shimazu katana samurai spam the optimal composition of the army in Shogun 2?

The art design is the best. UI unfortunately not scaleable, can't play in 4k.. The AI is as shit as any other TW, requires Darth Mod. Doomstacks spawning out of nothing make the game feel cheesy and strategy worthless. I wish they would finally make use of bleeding edge "AI" to replace cheating. The warscape engine sucks. Archers no longer gain range bonus from elevations. WTF were they thinking? Still enjoy the game with the help of some custom modding.

And as in R2, the persecutions suck, and your units still don't obey the direction you have give them.
