amen to that!!!
you know, i was thinking, if it wasnt for RTR(various versions), i just wouldnt be interested in rome, yeah, played vanilla once, got bored, played some mods. wait a minute, WTF!!!, i always thought mods were there for when youve totaly exhausted a game, when theres no other avenue left in a game, then you mod it, right? i played umpteen campaigns in mtw before i used a mod, yet with rome, i played 1 campaign as juili, then had to play with rtr
if that doesnt say something about the gameplay of rome, then i dont know what does. since 1.2, ive played half a campaign & then gave up, yet i know that rtr 6 will get me right back into it, strange, you fork out 30 quid for a game, & its some guys in a bedroom at their pc somewhere that make the game playable(for me)
