Hard pass for me on this one. 

I generally hate it when people whinge that, "This [game X] is just a reskin [of game Y]!".  In this case, however, it actually feels like that's the case here.  I already own Troy; I'm good. 



And of course, that's setting aside all the reasons I've become disenchanted with CA and Total War in the last few years.  I could rant, but Gus and 'geek have already covered the main points.  >:(

I can only assume their research and numbers show there’s not enough money in a new empire and a new medieval

On the other hand they keep wheeling out piss poor imitations like Troy and Egypt so they must see there’s money in historical ones

I'm holding-out for, Neanderthal Total War where the Rock-Throwers battle-it-out with the Stick-Throwers over the carcass of a dead Mastodon. With the Shit-Tossing Apes DLC soon to follow.  :bigthumb:

You had me at shit tossing apes.

It is inconceivable that CA do not know about yet burning desire of the TW community for a new Medieval or Empire game. Inconceivable.

So perhaps one of their studios besides CA Sofia is working on that? Maybe?

Ive read somewhere that the main historical team is still working on something

If this was undercovergeek assembly i can totally see why theyd go for the money, we all would, and if thats in fantasy then so be it

But im sure theres wads of cash in M3 and all the dirty DLC they can milk us for

What kind of credentials do I need to apply for a position at Undercover Geek Assembly?

Me too. Do you need to be more, 'Undercover' or, 'Geek' to get a position? Or equal parts both? Do you have Dental?
