After 8 years and 6 months Angryjoe finally made another total war review! Patience is truly a vertue.
Its been that loong ?? !!Jesus how time passes fast
Damn i remember his Rant about the Naval systems in Rome 2 like it was yesterday
To be honest total war is like 10 plus years late on make a fantasy TW. Thanks to king Arthur RPG I got that fix
Irony that he reviewed the worst game in the series :P
@@88oscuro the best* IE is a blast.
As a voice actor who was lucky enough to voice parts of the Nurgle faction, it's great to hear everyone rates the acting in these games - they're ridiculous fun!
That’s awesome man if you don’t mind me asking what parts did you voice?
@@Blake-py2ce Hope it was "Toxfarter the Destroyer of Worlds". The Nurgle faction has almost as good randomly generated names as the Slaanesh one.
@@Blake-py2ce a lot of the Nurgle Faction + some Orcs. In TWH2 I was Lokhir Fellheart.
How does it feel to get a payday by scammers?
@@NaturallyRPVoiceover You are a legend. Fellheart was and still is my favorite DE lord. You lending your voice contributed to hours upon hours of fun as the Kraken Lord of Karond Kar. Thank you so much.
Back in 2016, Joe was unable to review the first Warhammer. A year later, he couldn't review Warhammer II. Now five years later... he finally does it. Well done.
Fill us n00bz in on the who/what/when/where/why of the "unable to", if you don't mind.
Yeah, why?
@@CharlesVanNoland I think that was become there were too many triple A games to review. So by the time he had to review the game it was usually 1 month already.
He probably gave a bad review for 1 & 2 so……
His how to play Warhammer 2 got me started and into the games and he seemed to love it in that video.
The fact that kislev is recommended for new players is crazy, I play on very hard on every total war game and I got SLAPPED playing kislev, forcing me to drop to normal, the amount of portals that spawn near kislev I just kept getting spread and over run by constant stacks, and plagues
If you take out the rats in the West, and the Vampire counts in the south nobody really bothers you. Eventually the ogre in the south west will start beating up the Empire though around turn 85. You can use agents to close portals it costs 1500 gold. The game does let you do a portal close fight in forced march.
If you still have problems I recommend doing slaneesh's realm first.
If you don't want to hold an area you took you can give it to the nearby ai via diplomacy. If you click balance offer to they offer you a decent amount of gold.
There are 3 items she can offer you usually at the last portal that are just broken.
A weapon that will double the damage your lord does. Just has crazy stats.
A crown that gives +25 public order permanently to everything you own. "not that useful for kislev cause you should be building temples anyways".
An ancillary that gives you 100 army exp per turn, 200% exp gain on the equipped lord, and 20% movement bonus. This last one is the most common, and if you get it in first portal you will have a level 50 lord by the time the enemy gets to level 20.
@@JohnFreedman0 On normal difficulty maybe nobody bothers you. But thats not how a VH/legenday Kislev campaign goes. The Kislev start isnt that hard. You can conquer eastern oblast, praag and hellpit and confed the two minor Kislev factions relatively easily before the first rift opens. But thats when the shit hits the fan: after the first rifts open, you will be discovered by chaos undivided, khorne and nurgle and you will be faced with a never ending chaostide.
BRO this fucking bowelsteep!
Kislev has very strong roster if you know how to play on hardest difficulties.
@@captstainstain In case of being in legendary Kislev is one of the easier choices in my opinion. Mostly cause the ai gets melee cheat boosts, and every unit they have is ranged.
Lots of hero kiting cheese may be required.
Give this man a medal. Finally completed his Total War Warhammer review after his failures with the first two. And he’s going right on to Horizon AND Elden Ring. Madman.
@Fish Boy you do it
@Fish Boy I'd hate to do it.
@Fish Boy Try playing Elden Ring. 100 bucks says there won't be Angry Review of that.
It’s literally his job
Guys its not a job. Playing video games is not that challenging.
Correction: At 22:32 it was milkandcookiesTW's video. It was a minor mistake, no doubt, but he is my favourite total war youtuber and i want his work to be recognised. Great video either way AJ.
How was it a minor mistake? The name he put on screen is in no way similar to milkandcookiesTW 😆 you're just being nice though
Yeah, I’m sorry but I have never watch that other youtube channel, but yeah milkandcookies voice is really distinctive
At least he linked the right channel in the description...
Im glad to see I wasnt the only one that noticed that.
Indypride (milkandcookiestotalwar) makes incredible content. Please fix it Joe he deserves it!
I think if we had just a "storyless" mode option where we can just play a standard campaign without the chaos rifts stuff then the story campaign wouldn't have been as frustrating
@@debrickashaw9387 A few weeks? That's optimistic.
agreed. it's an afternoon's work at most and should be added while we wait for the combined map
@@debrickashaw9387 it will take months
That already exists in the other two games, storyless mode is coming
@@debrickashaw9387
Yeah but this is all of them at the same time. This is gonna take months.
Joe's Total War: Rome 2 review was my introduction to this channel and I haven't looked back since. This felt like coming full circle. :D
BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD,SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE,MILK FOR THE KHORNE FLAKES
Top tier comment and I don’t even play warhammer
Great comment, made me laugh thank you
Ah, tis an old, classic meme.
"NOW I CAN PLAY TOGETHER WITH MY FRIENDS, RIGHT?!........................"
@@RizzyTizzyLando It is godly in fact it is so grimdark/so dark and very humanity theme hehe can't wait. I always thought they light theme just like Warcraft turn out nope can't wait despite being first and oldest+ 4 chaos with Sla< youngest of all.
A few years ago he would be taking a massive dump all over how insanely greedy these devs are. They nerfed the Dwarves, now they're releasing "Chaos Dwarves" a SINGLE FACTION for $30 f'ing dollars dude... half the price of a full, FEATURE COMPLETE game... this fan base is CRAZY.
It's been shit since Rome II
It hasn’t gone better. It’s clearly a money maker to nickel and dime.
Late response but do you mean after rome 2? Cause since Rome 2 means you think Rome 2 is shit as well and that's probably there best game along with medieval
The man and the glorious legend does it again with his crew!!!
Always love the reviews!!!
Also the laidback ones too that feel like a podcast.
A tip for everyone who wants to fight more field battles. Use the ambush stance more often and use smaller armies or single lords in order to lay traps and lure out enemy armies. :)
Every time Joe puts out angry review, I feel like a little kid getting presents for christmas.
Hahaha true
Based
@Facepalm Full O' Napalm Why?
cringe
@Facepalm Full O' Napalm Care to elaborate?
Coming from a TW player who has been waiting for an AJ WH1/2 review: A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
"Warhammer multiplayer is so fun!" - great! Hopefully this review gets more people playing MP, the mp community is dedicated but small compared to other RTS titles and anything to help get more players into it is much appreciated!
So far, I've had a ton of connectivity issues, but when it works it's great. Also, sadly, a lot of the games are all private/password protected, so if you do get into a game, best hope there's not a dropped connection.
eh the fun of this games is to play at your own pace and slowly take over the map not loosing to some dude min-maxing the game online... many of the veteran players of RTS games ignore MP.
@@alekpo2000 If you prefer to play it that way then by all means! More power to you :) It is however a boon to the franchise that we have more options to suit everyone’s preferences beyond the single player sandbox. Casual skirmish battles, sprawling 8-player campaigns, you name it. You don’t have to play against the min-maxers, you can play with your own mates against the AI at your own pace.
OJ’s “HOOOOLD!” At 23:40 Fucking killed me 😂 an army of the most grotesque and macabre creatures is literally descending upon Joes army murdering his men in the worst ways possible and OJ just yells out “Hold!”
this is hilarious 🤣🤣
To be fair that's pretty lore friendly for Kislev lmao
Love your videos Joe! But honestly, how can you give this an 8/10? It's basically a DLC of TW WH2 which was an DLC of TW WH1, I thought you of all would punish this game due to charging full price for basically nothing new, besides some factions and campaign. But that could've been covered in a DLC.
Glad Joe is having fun this time. People ignore that if Joe is always mad, his lifespan shortens. . . . we dont want that do we.
Damn man are you a wise man perhaps? Cause this comment seems like a future quote lol
LOL since when is this dude apart of the great shilling operation for CA. This game is atrocious and the drop in players only emphasizes that.
22:40 is milkandcookiesTW btw. great total war channel with high skill level cinematic multiplayer battles and such.
How did they even scew that up? did they even try to do this seriusly? Seems a lot not to me...
Poor Indypride not getting the recognition he deserves… probably the best total war TH-camr out there
You can tell from this review Angry Joe is super passionate about Warhammer, vast difference than when he's reviewing something he doesn't care that much about. One of his best reviews recently, 'GREAT JOB'!
Yeah except he doesn't really talk about any of the huge problems the game has, like the campaign design is awful, the AI is easy to abuse on legendary because it's so stupid, a fact that's been a big problem for like 5 total wars it's like the same AI problems keep showing up game after game and it takes them years to fix it..
But that's not surprising. Joe is really non-critical of games he likes.
@@BoydTheMilkmanX kinda bias
Wish you guys could play and enjoy these games for as long as you’d like but we appreciate the hard work.
Great review! Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that making campaign mechanics a race completely contadicts the story and opening cinematics. Its so silly going to the chaos realms to get a soul of a demon prince and finding Greasus with a horde of ogres just chilling in the swamps of Nurgle.
Not a 8/10
As much as Im excited for mortal empires to be Implemented; the game mode is essentially holding this game back from evolving to it’s full potential by making previous games factions playable for its “new installments” do not settle for this.
Hell I would give it a 9 right now if there was a turn of demon realms option.
@@dark_winter8238 lmao, man. guess CA™️ WH future is dull if we giving out 9’s. What a waste of opportunity of an awesome franchise.
I think it's a 6/10 but I can see 7, no shot it's an 8 rn, I think it has potential to be an 8-9 but in the launch state it's missing a few points.
Warhammer 3 sucks. They need to ditch the whole realms of chaos mechanic. There is absolutely no incentive to aggressively expand across the map because doing so only leave you open to invasion by the countless rifts that keep opening up across the map. What's the point in even having a campaign map when you have to keep sending your armies into the rift to collect souls. All I want to do is conquer the map but I can't because CA designed the game so you have to take part in the race for souls. No souls, no victory. I don't want to collect souls I just want to conquer lands, manage cities and annihilate my enemies. The game doesn't let me do that instead it forces me to engage in long drawn out missions inside the chaos realm. I don't care about the chaos realm I just want to conquer the damn map. This game is trash!
"success of three kingdoms" you mean the one they abandoned due to poor player retention?
Still the best selling total war to date when it came out :P
@@deadlyydude5522 followed by the worst selling dlc in franchise history, killing the game.
@@AThousandSons1 oh I agree, the dlc and live service model for 3k was garbage. But it’s still one of the most profitable total war games ever
After delaying the game for 6 months and they still can't release with the Mortal Empires Campaign. When WH2 released they were actually apologetic that ME didn't release with the game, and it came out a month after release. Here we are 1 month after the release of WH3 and the Devs just made a post saying ME is nowhere in sight. All this with CA completely ignoring the feedback from the TH-camrs who had early access and pointed out multiple times that the Chaos Realm campaign was hot garbage. Which is why WH3 concurrent players has had the sharpest decline in the first 2 days of launch since Thrones of Brittania. 90% of the people who bought WH3 are no longer playing it. NINETY PERCENT. Let that sink in. But Joe gives it an 8/10. I don't know how much CA paid him for this review but just like the game, it's Hot Garbage.
Here's you're real rating for WH3 - 5/10.
Save your money until it's playable.
Joe should not be reviewing this game. He does not have the hours into the trilogy to justify him reviewing WH3. That is my issue with this angry review. I have something like 3200 hours between all 3 games, with just over 200 hours in WH3, and 2200 hours in WH2. I skimmed through some of their livestreams when they were playing WH3, and you can see that they lack the deep understanding of the warhammer trilogy to truly understand why WH3 is bad on release. Joe's perspective shines with releases that don't require hundreds of hours to play to truly be in a position to give a critical review.
Lol calm down boy
22:35 This is milkandcookiesTW not Warmaster Moloch!
LOL
Yeah his voice is very distinct.
in Multipalyer or AI matches you can also select the faction banner and color. that is very new for TW warhammer. we never had this without any NPC faction unlocker mods. just press the arrow buttons next to the banners and you can change your faction color and banner to one of your liking
A really welcome feature for me personally. I always wanted to be able to select faction colours, and now I can.
Glad to see this! Finally holding CA to some much needed AJ accountability!
I need a distraction! Thank you!
Accountability? With a badass Seal and 8/10? 😅
@@baronsengir187 Yeah, it was sure lacking compared to the criticism of the rest of the Total War community.
Angry Joe’s face when his friends leave the battlefield braveheart style was hilarious and epic!
Depending on your faction you’ll either hate the campaign or love it, and props to CA for an actual mini tutorial. You want my honest opinion? Wait for Mortal Empires, the game has lots of bugs and balancing issues that SERIOUSLY need to be ironed out. Invading the realms of chaos *ESPECIALLY* Tzeentch’s realm was beyond a clusterfuck, the whole mechanic sucks and leaves you with horrible debuffs on your faction leader. Immortal Empires will be where it’s at, I’d rather do the Vortex in WH2 AGAIN, than even touch another campaign in WH3… Some factions are just not fun to play, where others like Khorne are an absolute blast.
Good thing there is a mod that completely mods out the chaos realms completely and rhe game is amazing for ut
Yep. Nurgle (At least for me sucked). Considering Nurgle heavily depends on his plagues to weaken enemies, but you can't do that for quest battles/survival battles.
Survival battles also need something like "Spend 500 supplies to refill all ammo". Going in with heavily ranged based armies hurts. Even a lot of the settlement battles hurt ranged base armies, cause the settlement blocks a huge chunk of projectiles.
100% agreed, I can't stand campaign anymore, only if friends in mp get involved. Waiting for Mortal empires.
@@Fractured676 you can refill ammo in survival battles for supplies
@@josephrichmond4148 As far as I'm aware, the only way to do this is to recall the entire unit, which costs a significant amount of supplies, especially if they are a higher tier unit.
I mean specifically, just give me a large AoE that refills all the units in that area's ammo. Specifically out of combat.
Man, that Braveheart scene with Alex and OJ abandoning you really hit me in the feels
I miss crazy and skit intros like these from Joe! So good!😂🔥
Great use of Braveheart scene lmao
joe how could you give it an 8/10 this game is a buggy mess. Disappointed man. you should have ripped them a new a-hole
How much is SEGA paying you to shill for Warhammer 3?
more than g fuel for sure
You've really fallen far Joe. This game is utter trash and the modern TW series is a stripped down arcadey dumpster fire.
Super happy to finally see a warhammer review on the AJS I can't wait for immortal empires I just hope we can sail from the left side of the map and appear on the right side so there's more interesting interactions of factions
I have seen the chaos wastes. I've collected skulls for the skull throne and sent souls screaming into hell. I've read forbidden knowledge and warped fates. I've unleashed some of the worst plagues ever seen. I've lost myself in the pleasures of unspeakable excess. But that thing at 14:40... That scares the hell out of me.
22:32
you cite warmaster moloch but this is def milkandcookiesTW
I feel a reverse Uno skit coming :
"Hey Joe ! You wanna play a Zomby game ?!
-Hey, you wanna play zombies in a total war game ?!
-Huuuuuuuuuuuh...
-Too bad ! get over here !"
Yeah, I don't know why the game recommends Kislev and the Daemon Prince as the first campaigns. I would say that Ogre Kingdom, Cathay, or Khorne are much better for a first playthrough. And you should definitely start your first campaign on normal difficulty, even if you're a Total War veteran. The early game economy is weaker in general and things can get very tough at the beginning. I find it more fun to start at normal and then raise the difficulty higher later on as I get my economy up and running.
Very hard Daemon Prince first playthrough here. Won it. Eeze
Agreed. Kislev is such a bizarre recommended first pick. Not easy at all imo lol
I wouldn't say Cathay is a good first time playthrough simply because the many, many mechanics can be overwhelming. Good first play through for people who have played Total War Warhammer 1 and/or 2. Not for new players.
@@roxstar5088 Cathay is fine for beginners, if you go with the dragon dude for the 1st one. Dragon lady is a bit tougher because of the “Great Wall of Cathay” mechanic and constant defending against chaos incursions
I'm surprised you actually reviewed this game in this insane game release window.
TWW 3 is my most anticipated game in probably...5 or so years. The game has issues and some pretty annoying bugs, but overall I'm loving it. The demon factions are so ridiculous and thematic. I gotta commend CA on the art as well, everything looks so damn cool. Like the demon realms are insane
Wait, this just released? I've been so absorbed by Elden Ring that I haven't paid attention to anything else
@@Walamonga1313 yes, they released about the same time. Like a week apart.
Your credit at 22:33 is for the wrong person. That is milkandcookiesTW, not Warmaster Moloch.
Man, good to see you had a good time with a game for a change. In recent times it's anger and disappointment more often than not, so it must have been refreshing for the the hole AJS crew to work on this game. Good for you guys.
I might be wrong but wasn't that "milkandcookies totalwar" instead of warmaster moloch during the immortal empires video insert?
Thought the same thing!
Always with good energy, Joe, keep it work.
I guess you didn’t play much warhammer 2. Otherwise you will think this is a awful launch.
awful, maybe, though most certainly a major disappointment
I mean, the vortex campaign sucked in game 2 as well, and had tons of technical issues, this one isn’t much worse
MILK FOR THE CORNFLAKES!!!!
22:35 wait... What? Warmaster Moloch? That's MilkandcookiesTW 😂
Holy shit, AJ actually managed to review one of the Warhammer Total Wars for once and not leave it as a mention in a yearly review
Okay, idk if anyone has mentioned it yet but at around 22:40 the voice that is being played is not of Warmaster Moloch's but milkandcookiesTW or IndyPride's xD.
18:00 Ogre Santa on mobility scooter
19:45 Nurgling Voltron
20:00 Chaos Sarlaac pit? Or is that the Ogre Maw?
The maw is a volcano thing I think so
WH3 has tons and tons of problems. Broken pathfinding, ranged units running around when given attack order, units forgetting their orders, lords freezing when fighting each other, bugged supply lines mass and charge not calculating properly so chariots are useless etc. All of those things work in 2. So yeah, everything is fun with friends, but WH3 need lots of work to be a good game.
agreed. fundamentals that work in the previous game have been broken, hopefully it doesn't take them long to fix the issues
Some attacks don't even work [Zhao Ming and Ming Yao's dragon forms's attacks constantly miss], sometimes units just ignore collision and move through each other for a while till the game remembers that this shouldn't happen, the game's optimization is just off, etc.
A lot of problems that were mostly fixed in WH2 are now appearing in WH3.
And why is that? Because CA's main team started to make WH3 after WH2 while DLC/patch team was fixing most of the issues in WH2 for 3-4 years.
@@Asdsassin Which is really stupid. Why the heck does CA not learn? Same with the campaign, people had the same complaints about the Vortex campaign!
@@termitreter6545 At least Vortex campaign is more tolerable that you don't need to do campaign objectives if you don't want to: you can straight up conquer the world and ignore the vortex. The WH3 campaign with rifts opening every province and spreading corruption and the race against other factions to get souls in chaos realms doesn't reward you doing so. And going in chaos realms is pretty much of a pain to do when you can get negative traits and can be pain to navigate except for AI.
Demonettes are cute af.
This review has waaay too much clips from promo material and not much gameplay clips from Joe.
Take your time Joe. Your informative reviews have saved me a lot of money over the years.
Word
For some games yes. Others are just biased garbage
I love seeing Joe rage at shifty games but I love to see him happy and having fun even more.
I’m excited to see ur opinion! I personally love the game and I’m excited for what’s to come especially with chaos dwarves pretty much confirmed!
Don’t forget Araby nippon khuresh the dogs of war!
@@YeraBlizzadHarry God I hope so!
@@LordVader1094 honestly they’re all but confirmed at this point
@@deadlyydude5522 no they aren’t. They have said no plans for nippon and araby
@@YeraBlizzadHarry that’d be so sick 😈😈
Very excited for Immortal Empires. That's where the real game is going to be. Although I hope they make it accessible for everyone with older factions unlocked for owners for the previous titles.
After seeing the DF review of this game, I have mad respect for the animators
Who’s DF?
@@hollow_dbd Digital Foundry
Whats a DF review?
@@KizaruB thanks
@@Drax514 digital foundry. You should honestly watch their reviews before you buy ANY game, because they test performance and graphics extensively
Really waiting for a Total War 40k. That will definitely get my attention. Although, Dawn of War 4 DONE PROPERLY would be more than welcomed as well. Glad this game is great, need all the good Warhammer games we can get. Cheers
a 40K TW would be essentially 50% Battlefleet Gothic Armada II. Which is nice. Void battles!
buy total war warhammer 3
If they find a way to fit 40K into the Total War formula one day I'll die happy.
It's possible as range is still meta. But honestly I think they do well to experiment with a WWI total war first to nail down ranged mechanics and campaign logistics that work and are fun without needing to do entirely separate models and animations for every faction.
I feel Joe with how the chaos rifts ruin the pacing. Cant wait for the Immortal empires since that true sandbox I feel is the true game experience. I was really disappointed with when after first patch the desktop hard crashes returned, it made my life miserable enough in TWH2.
This game is almost a step back from Warhammer 2. A 8/10? Come on. If a game this broken didn't have a Warhammer license it would be redundant.
I grant that The Nurglings are nicely animated
Yeah there's quite a bit of blind Warhammer love in that score, as well as a lot of downplayed game issues in the video.
I am tired how game devs dont want to finish the games now days just to sell DLCS later... This feels more like expansion than actual new instalment in the franchise !
Has Joe and the crew ever had a busier couple of months? I find it admirable that he found time for Total War when the monetary decision would have been to get out a Horizon or Elden Ring review as soon as possible to capitalize on all the hype. You can tell he still passionate about the craft even after over a decade on TH-cam.
cause total warhammer 3 is more fun,period. With HZ and ER you have being playing these kinds of games since 2015 and it's getting stale
Those games still deserve their respect they're good games and at least they're complete games unlike a couple games I can think of
Honestly idgaf about hype with his channel. He could release a Super Smash Broa on N64 review and I'd still click asap
@@MGrey-qb5xz Haha that's funny, you don't know how often I'm hearing that people are ditching Warhammer 3 in its current state for Elden Ring whilst CA fixes shit on the Reddit.
@@Baba-yv6ml haha that's actually funny seeing how elden ring is doing only average everywhere except usa seeing as how you people are fan of more of the same thing like it be fast food
Seeing Joe losing it is fun and all, but I almost forgot how heartwarming is seeing Joe enjoying and loving a game for its incredible content and everything it offers....thanks CA, this game is A+
Lol what.
The game is terrible.
Buggy
Ugly
AI doesn’t work properly
Guard mode is Broken
Pathfinding is broken
Calvary charges are broken
Mass is broken
Game has placeholders and artwork from a phone game instead of unique race art like WH2

@@neildeeley4177 "game has placeholders and artwork from a phone game instead of unique race art like WH2"
Source?
Love the Warhammer total war series, thanks for this review Joe!
Honestly, I have watched a lot of your videos about Warhammer. I was stoked for this to be my first Warhammer experience. But the game is so buggy and broken for me that it was impossible to play the game. I had a 50/50 chance that the game was going to crash whenever I was in a loading screen.
That Braveheart clip. LMAO
Wtf? Milkandcookies video and some warmaster name on it WTF? WHAT THE ACTAL F......
Intro was such a throwback to classic
I never thought I'd hear Joe Vargas say *T H I C C B O I S* but I'm glad I was here for it.
What I like the most about Joe and his crew is that they all genuinely get on with each other and feed into each other's strengths and quirks, and they have been doing this for years and years. No ego trips or petty stuff with them. Just a few guys with shared interests supporting each other.
What happened to that Delrith guy that was with them? He just vanished.
@@bricktop. He made Joe Angry and now his face is on the back of milk cartons near me
@@bricktop. Started doing his own thing.
@@bricktop. rumores he got caught diddling
if u own the blood dlc in WH1 u dont need to buy them again... any dlc u own in 1 and 2 u don't need to buy them again in WH3
Neat
Please god no chaos rifts in immortal empires
Something that I wish the game would make more apparent to you is that the chaos gates can be closed by a hero, unattached from the army, for a price, instead of fighting the battle.
I found this out after having to run two armies as kislev trying to simultaneously defend my borders and close gates to cut off corruption. If I had known I would've kept a hero in every territory and my main army would've had a lot more time to consistently remove the chaos realm debuffs, while my second army couldve prioritized the constant northern raids. I also probably would've won the race with the church as the ice court that way since the ice court let's you pump out high level heros.
The diplomacy system really saved me that run because I prioritized stabilizing and allying the dwarves and empire to the south. As a dwarf main I was surprised how well kislev benefits from a couple trollhammer units in its roster.
Surprised Joe didn't mention that Ogre Kingdoms being pre-order/Day one DLC
If only there was an update review on this..
Why would he need an update review?
Especially now
we finally got one. i've been playing these games ALOT since tww1, and i love them deeply. i'm not even a massive warhammer fan, but its just such a cool world, and its great to play with fantasy units.
i agree with alot of joe's points, i get so tired of those settlement battles as they are just a swarming of some points... and i cannot manage to do the objective while trying to take on all the people attacking me early game, so i usually end up skipping a couple which just leads to annoying busywork later in the campaign, or just a striaght up loss without a reload.
I am depressed at the state of the game.
you still have to buy the full TW1, TW2, and all the extra DLC, to play all races......sorry but i need to pay the rent first
You don't have to have all the races to play against those races.
And compared to the tabletop version of Warhammer, Total War is 100x cheaper.
Yes it is still expensive, however considering the scope of the game, thats the price.
@@UltimatePowa that is the price of CA GREED....the whole game is a re-skin of TW2...and TW2 was a reskin of TW1,
This is incorrect, you only have to buy the base TW1 and TW2, whoever that said you need to buy all the DLC is lying
@@cyllananassan9159 then don’t play the game
something went wrong here Joe, if the game is good, why the huge drop in the player base?
This was a long time coming and a great milestone for Joe.
Not only did he miss the reviews for warhammer 1 and 2 but this is also the first total war review since rome 2 which was one of the best reviews he did in that era of the angryjoeshow.
CA didn't pay him enough to review them.
22:33 Hey Joe this isn't warmaster moloch, this is milkandcookiesTW's video on the immortal empires map.
I'd do anything for a creative assembly Warhammer 40k game
Imagine the battle scenes in that game. I hope they do once all the Warhammer dlc finishes for this trilogy
imagine total war x horus heresy
There are a ton of hints in total war warhammer 3 that 40k total war is next
@@deadlyydude5522 no no no don't don't give me hope
@@carefulgorgi5309 hehe. I doubt we’ll see it within 5 years though
Came here after encountering my first chaos rift and handheld through some crappy narrative campaign. Uninstalled the game and redownloading TWW2.
As a new player I was fairly hyped after the prologue. I was having fun, doing my stuff, preparing and advancing in my pace.
starting the campaign I was quite shocked after 20-30 rounds, that this is not the way, the game wants me to play now.
this rift mechanic, forcing me to rush, without notice and without being prepared destroyed my hype and I stopped playing.
Yeah. The right mechanic is horrible. Game ends in 150 turns and your ability to actually do anything and expand is severely arrested by it. I beat the game in the 3rd day of release as KHORNE on legendary...had 2 armies...2 provinces...usually could only afford one army despite the insane amount of sacking and burning I was doing in Kislev after teleporting then with an unstoppable army that could solo 4 stacks... The auto resolve was also really painful and the game forced me to fight battles I was overwhelmingly strong in. Felt like a big waste of time.
The game is hot garbage at the moment.
TW2 is so much better currently.
If you compare this to delriths review, the entertainment value is sooo much better - I'd rather wait a few weeks to a month for your reviews because they are entertaining and funny, there's ton of other places to know if a game is good or not right away, your reviews are pure entertainment and I love it! Keep those reviews coming out no matter how long it might take!
I think the campaign is OK. It would be better if they limited the amount of demon souls to one per chaos realm. And there after you would have to fight other factions to get all of them. Reminds me of the the avengers series and the infinity stones. Just a thought.
Everyone can disable the chaos rift campaign mechanic. Meaning you just play the map painter conquest game you wanted to. It's like 3 steps to do. Download a pack file editor, change one setting, edit one number that marks the turn the rifts start. Either delay the start event or disable it completely. There's a simple guide on reddit, just look for how to disable chaos rifts.
I actually didn't know this ty
Should just be an option but cool it can be disabled,I think his problem was more of the ai being able to cross the maelstroms so its becomes super speed based and race like especially on hard difficulties.
who here doesnt give a rats ass about total war but just loves watching angry reviews
I hope they add customizable Lords for every faction. That would be dope.
Honestly, completely agree with this. Everything's great, except for the campaign. It would be much better, I think, if it wasn't restricted to your LL.
Totally agree with Joe on timers in RTS games, one of things I didn't like about Xcom 2, it was still a good game though.
Xcom2 is absolute classic, usually I like take time, thats why I dont reallyu like these TW games, but Xcom timers never bothered me, you just have to deal with it, its the constant tension. Xcom is absolute classic.
I played TW warhammer 2 mortal empires, and I can see the brilliance of it, but its just not for me. I dont know, my taste is very slow burn strategies, like Civ on marathon speed or Stellaris on 3x tech cost. I can play Stellaris for 8 hour intervals and never go to war in that span, just micro manage stuff, where TW you just load and you already in a war, thats crazy.
That said, weirdly, I can recommend TW to more people, even tho I myself do not like it that much, compared to Stellaris. Stellaris is just my kind of game, but its not for the masses like TW.
Also, man these games are demanding, my PC isnt terrible, but it doesnt run TW very well, its the most demanding strategy game I know, I wonder how much that anti pirate thing tanks the performance?
XCOM IS awesome.
I actually think that made Xcom really good, there’s a few missions were you don’t have a timer but the ones were you do add a lot of pressure and you need to take action or you’ll fail, it leads to great moments.
@@00pugsly48 yes I agree. Xcom is about tension and its genius in that regard. We still get missions like raiding where you can be as slow as you want.
@@00pugsly48 right the mission every now and then I understand, I was talking more about the Avatar Project counter. It makes me personally feel like I have to rush when I just want to take it at my own pace.
So the reason for lack of blood is a shortage in Red Pixels, they had used up their allocation in the menu's and backdrops. it wasn't possible to get more because not only other games in the same release window had acquired them, its was also released during the Valentines period where they are in high demand for all the rose and heart emojis used during this period.
We need LOTR Total war
Honestly did not even watch the whole thing, just jumped to the end. Badass seal of approval and 8/10? Come on. The game right now is a huge step down from WH2. Tower defense battles, shit unit pathfinding, broken balance, a crap narrative campaign with not only weak storytelling but also wonky mechanics. And a very limited faction pool.
Perhaps it will get deserve a good score once Immortal Empire hits. But in its current state? Laughable.
Excelent review! sums up what i feel about the game.
