Guys have you seen this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXkWfEIALxM It seems rather long, not watched it nor in fact played Rome II but I don't know it might be interesting.
I was never going to get Rome II anyway, I liked Shogun II (what little I've played) but CA's model seems to be moving more towards a sort of closed software platform + expensive DLC rather than mod friendly, so that put me off. Mods have always been the life blood of the series.
I preferred Rome:TW with the EB mod, it just...felt better but I'd get really annoyed at some of the descriptions. "Virgil's Aeneid was the first great work of Roman literature" come on that's just lazy. It looked pretty though and I liked the factioning.
All moot though, I've not played for years and I'm not good a games.
