It's offering players a choice that they didn't previously have with games like Rome 1.
So no, in my view it isn't bull and it isn't not right to give people the option to expand on an already huge game with some optional additional content for a fee. And even if you don't buy the DLC, you benefit from the upgraded factions as enemies or allies. They give you the chance to play the game from a different point of view, but aren't essential to the game.įinally Rome 1's (and other earlier Total War games) non-playable factions stayed non-playable (except for three in Medieval 1 added through the expansion Viking Invasion.) In contrast in Rome 2, CA went back to some of those non-playable factions and upgraded them to playable, with new units, internal politics and civil war, chapter objectives etc.
(I know some will argue Greece was a major power, but in the period the game is actually set Greece's glory days are long since past.) The DLC factions are optional. Internal politics, civil wars, missions, victory conditions, chapter objectives, unique units, tech trees etc.Īlso worth noting that Rome 2 without any paid DLC has all the major powers of the era. They act independently, and can even go out and conquer lands for themselves (unlike Rome 1's rebels, who sat in their homes waiting to die.)Īlso worth noting that playable factions in Rome 2 have a lot more going on than just a name and some shared units. Rome 2 in contrast has dozens and dozens of minor factions, all of which are not only potential invasion targets, but trade partners, allies, enemies, allies of your enemies, client states, satrapies etc. (32 including optional paid DLC.)Īs Delacourt '27 says, much of Rome 1's map is covered by an amorphous blob of "rebels" whose only purpose was to be conquered by the playables (and a handfull of named non-playables.) Rome 2 today has 14 with just the base game + Free DLC.
