Thank you for sharing this with us
BTW, RTW is a relatively old game so that's explains it

How can he hate it if he has never played it. EB is obviously much better than RTW, but RTW is still a fun game.

This is true to an extent, I loved rtw when I played it for the first time 1 year ago. Lasted 3 days then I found eb. And now I can't play it any more...


Damn eb, running rtw for me!

Quite true. EB is all about Running RTW with a heavily modified set of parameters.

What I meant was that RTW was a great game and I had fun while I played it, but without RTW, EB wouldn't be possible.

Or the little packets of sugar they (presumably, I've only been to Macdonalds once) give you.

man.. thats EASY to solve... Really

take him to your house and let him play EB for a couple of hours with like KH, or Aedui, or Backtria. One of the "Cool & Unique" factions of EB. As he plays tell to read the unit descriptions so he sees EB is THE REAL DEAL!

Then leave him for about 1-2hours. After that he will be begging his mom for $$ to get RTW... and even a new PC to run the thing the HIGHEST settings


IF that don't work... then F* him. There is no hope for him.

I would recomend Carthage, it is much the best faction to get started with. Or maybe the Ptolomaioi, but they don't have such a cool rooster.

I recently picked up a new RTW DVD for £5, at that price you'd have to be nuts to forsake the EB goodness, just for the pedantic excuse that you don't like RTW.

Heh, I found out about R:TW a couple of years ago, a friend of mine was playing it, I thought it was awesome because of the realism (!)

Year or two later, I finally bought it myself, and played it a lot. Then I found out about R:TR, which I thought to be teh b0mbz.

Couple of months later, I ran across the social life killer known as EB, and I've been addicted since.

I go on dates while EB is loading. And then have sex while the campaign is loading.

You just have to be innovative to fit the personal life in.

Have you ever tried having sex WHILE playing EB?

I met this lovely girl who happens to play RTW. Still need to convert her to the (un)holiness of Europa Barbarorum!

Well, does he hate only RTW or the whole Total War series or the ancient aera? If RTW is to old, he shall buy MTW2 and go for EB2.
