Total War: Pharaoh reviewed by Leana Hafer on PC.
"The new Total War looks incredible, with diverse and interesting battles complemented by an uncommonly deep and rich campaign layer. The focus is firmly on Egypt, and the experiences available outside that region don't really match up in terms of content or quality to what is on offer to the civilizations of the Nile. But Creative Assembly Sophia has refined every part of its take on this franchise since Troy, and the results are just shy of glorious."

It comes from the success of Warhammer but it really does not work for historical titles imo. Troy was probably the only one where it sort of worked and even then it was not great. And even in Warhammer you still had the proper factions.

WH3 is so much more of a game since it build off of 1 and 2. Pharaoh is just another TW game setting, and arguably less interesting. It was a poor business decision imo, as many people aren't into historical as much. Plus, if they are they have so many other games that cover that already.

People obviously want medieval 3 for example. Yeah, medieval 2 does exist, but it’s extremely dated. Just because they already have a game set in that period doesn’t mean they can’t revisit it.

@@ifstar3 Some have played it and said it was a reskined Troy but more expensive and yes they should try to make a product the consumers will buy or else people won’t waste money on what they don’t want.

This is a saga, not a full historical total war. it’s a 5.5 and more people are playing medieval 2 than pharaoh on launch. (Because some people still play on disc so steam analytics won’t reflect this)
