“If you liked or loved Total War: Rome; this remaster does do the game justice in every regard. Some people have had issues with unit path-finding, it hasn't bothered me much at all. This game does have workshop…”
“Great throwback game with updated graphics.”
“Great game, gameplay holds up incredibly well. I'm hoping Med3 forgoes the "Arcade" vibe that other recent TW games have”

“Great throwback game with updated graphics.”
“Pretty much the same game as the original, with updated graphics but downgraded UI. 1/10 Points.”
“Just came from Shogun2, the cavalry in Total War: Rome is so powerful and useful. But btw, the Phalanx is so powerful too. The graphics is good & modern, new UI is quite helpful, but AI is still silly somehow.”

“Awesome game, all the mods available make this game even better. A true classic of strategic warfare gaming.”
“The definitive way to play one of the best total war games ever produced, and a nostalgic trip back to my first ever total war experience. The graphical updates are pleasant without changing what I loved about the first…”

“If you liked the original back in the day this is awesome. You can decide which things they added to the game to keep in the menu. Game runs and looks better than my original copy.”
“Seems fine. Runs good now, and it got some neat quality of life stuff added. Even though the ui is a little strange, i see no reason to play the original anymore really.”

“Good update of the orginal Rome total war with balance, bug fixes and quality of life, however some of the orginal's charm has been lost, and the new graphics are inconsistent. Some textures are 2020, while others look…”

“Inferior to the original version in my opinion. UI is horrendous by comparison and the map has been updated to look very cartoony.”

“It's very pretty and the graphics have been improved a lot but the UI is a marmite kinda thing, the wiki doesn't work for some reason, "automanage" keeps working even when turned off, and the old flaw from the original…”
“Bought on sale, glad I did. There is bug which - upon investigation - seems to be a longstanding one, involving the mouse no longer working properly in game. Seems to take about 10 minutes to kick in at which point game…”
“Game crashes a lot, to the point it's not playable.”

“Rome 2 has 33 GB (or at least it's what Steam says) and this has 42 GB. The game is nostalgic, the music is great and reminds me of better days when I was young and couldn't even afford a game or a PC. The new changes…”

“Great Remaster, amazing recreation with bug fixes and better graphics! (It also runs faster!)”
— a player, Steam review · 134 hrs played“Bought it for nostalgic reasons obviously, but it's still a very addictive game. Totally forget the time when playing, and it's still a lot of fun. Although hoped they expanded some stuff, like the family trees and the city management system, but it's good enough to play 1 or 2…”
— a player, Steam review · 56 hrs played“you are sacrificing an extra 40GB space and a lot of thematic details as well and an advisor VA just to be able to run the game at a decent framerate and resolution, while also having the worst UI imaginable”
