Is RTW Worth Buying?

RTW isnt a bad game theres just floors like many bugs.

I say for £20 though get it. It can keep you entertained for a good month or 2.

Is RTR worth buying? Despite all the above -- yes, absolutely. Best PC game I've ever played, bar none. I'm still having fun with vanilla 1.2 after 3 months and if I ever slow down with that, there's Rome Total Realism waiting....

Without a doubt yes! Sure there are some bugs but it's really good and the mods are good and after Blue Lotus and Europa Barbarorum come out the game will be about 50 times better.

due to the save/load "issue", if you can afford to spend consistent 1-2 hour sessions and commit to playing consecutive turns without ever saving and loading, it might still be worth it for about 25 USD. otherwise, wait and see if the expansion fixes the bugs.

Wait for the expansion because it's the third patch.

AI sucks bad...the graphics are cool and the game idea is nice.

Don`t buy it! You might get dependant! At least I am.

It`s definately worth your money, I would strongly recommend you to buy it.

The load/save game bug is bad, but don`t let it ruin your game experience, RTW is a great game after all.

If you're unsure - wait for the Expansion.

With mods, it's playable - but even sometimes with them it's rather tiresome because you can't mod out some of the hardcoded problems....
