I played a full campaign in Rome Remastered and I don't think I can go back to normal. It was pretty amazing. I've grown to dislike the space god view of the battles. I tried the new Pharaoh and the camera went so high up that I had trouble comprehending distances, and it also took me right out of the entire game. I made a camera mod that put the camera down to around tree height. I removed all banners and excess markers etc. from the battles, and now it's almost the way I like it. The missing general camera can sort of be simulated by the unit camera though it's not the same, and the missing AI command for friendly units cannot be fixed, so for me that was the end of that game I think.

In my Remastered campaign, in cases where I would have to attack from different directions, I would give command to the units themselves and hope for the best. That was incredible, because it took away the upper hand we have as humans against the AI. If I had to chase people down after a battle I would also make the AI automate that. I played as Pontos, and I think my campaign ended when I conquered Rome. I was playing on normal difficulty and it became relatively simple to finish. It was the most fun I have had in a TW game since I first played Rome and Medieval II.
