Total War: Attila - Initial Thoughts

[edyzmedieval]

I'm mildly excited about the upcoming game.

Probably because it evokes some memories of Napoleon:TW, which in my opinion was a very good TW game. But memories aside, I'm mildly excited because of three things:

• Eastern Roman Empire VS Sassanids (Barbarian Invasion was a ton of fun because of that - let's hope Attila has that)
• Rome II is now an enjoyable game - which roughly will translate to Attila
• Fighting off the Hunnic invasion as the Romans - a proper challenge

Most likely, Attila will be an evolution of Rome 2, and that in itself is a good thing because after 15 or so patches the "initial" game evolved to a good level. Not sure if I will pre-order it, I'm still waiting out to hear some more details about it, but initial signs are looking pretty positive. I wasn't that excited about Rome 2, an opinion which now changed due to the game (I'm enjoying it), but Attila is a bit different.

Thoughts?
