Total War: Rome II – Emperor Edition still allows gamers to just choose the Grand Campaign, select a faction and simply try to reach the objectives or even conquer the entire world, creating their own narratives of success, betrayal and rivalry in the process. There are still some weird behaviors here and there and the game needs a solid system to run on, but Total War: Rome II – Emperor Edition is a solid release. The Creative Assembly says that this is the definitive edition of the strategy experience, and after trying out the new campaign and the newly added factions, I have to say that fans will be happy with most of the changes that have been introduced and that newcomers who are looking to get into the series will find that this is the best possible entry point.
Coming back to Total War: Rome II using the Emperor Edition is like meeting an old friend again after a few months, finding that he lost some weight and then waiting patiently to see how his worldview has changed.
