don't pretend like we didn't see Rome 2 halfway downloaded.
Yeah that's all the playtime he could stomach
I got sent in a few rome 2 disasters. I will have a look at them.
@@LegendofTotalWardo you recommend Rome 2 over older games if a person only played Warhammer before?
@@shmekelfreckles8157 You'll be more familiar with Rome 2 if you played Warhammer only. Anything pre-Rome 2 has a different overworld in terms of settlement building and army control. It's easier to learn it though than trying to learn the new mechanics introduced by Rome 2 that applies to Warhammer.
@a.trance6997 nah, nothing too hard in rome1 to understand. People who play warhammer have some brain, so mechanics of rome1 would not be difficult to learn. But yeah, management issues are no joke, and interface not so friendly((
"I dont like fighting in forests in Rome 1" is literally the most historical statement I've heard a WRE player say
Legend where are my legions?
lol nice@@MrTurnBased
Varus, give me back my legions!
476 is the typical date for the fall of the west. 1453 is when the east fell.
Historical Total war is back and thriving🔥🔥🔥
We eating good🔥
Is it though? Or is it just that people prefer to play games that were relatively well maintained in the round to the more modern and fissile implementations?
@@robinstacpoole2667 Older TW titles are objectively superior. The newer ones lost features, got streamlined and CA made a big deal of the effects of weather in Pharaoh as if they never did that before.
It always was thriving in the background all these years
@@robinstacpoole2667 Rome I and Medieval II are just fantastic games
"It is pleasant, when the sea is high and the winds are dashing the waves about, to watch from the shores the struggles of another." - Lucretius
Almost hilarious how this quote from the first battle loading screen quite literally describes what we are all doing here in the first place xD
Just a minor thing, but 453 isn't the year the WRE died; it's the year Attila died. There was actually a subsequent period from 457-461 where the emperor Majorian came to power and fought so hard that he damn near brought the entire empire back from the dead. It was only after he was murdered by Ricimer that the empire went into its final death spiral, and limped along for another 15 years before finally being put out of its misery.
I think he got this and Byzantine ones dates mixed. 1453 is the year for the fall of Constantinople.
I'm as much a Majorian fan as every other Rome fanboy but people need to stop pretending he almost revived the empire. In fact, I think we need to altogether re-think the date at which the western empire fell because it was LONG before 476. I'm not sure that it even still existed by the time Majorian "became emperor" and went on his rampage.
Majorian wasn't even really an emperor, he was Ricimer's plaything, and Ricimer tortured him for days and had him executed the moment he no longer needed him for anything. Majorian restored lands which used to be a part of the western empire but those conquests disintegrated as soon as he died. Majorian used mercenaries for his army because Rome no longer had any legions. When Majorian was murdered the legions didn't choose the next emperor because there were no legions, the senate didn't choose him because the senate didn't dare to go against Ricimer. Ricimer - a foreigner with absolutely zero loyalty to Rome or its empire - chose the next emperor. All that was left of the western empire was Italy, and Ricimer was its king in all but name. HE had an army. HE called the shots.
The last time the western empire actually had legions to enforce its borders was some time during the reign of Honorius, but even then the emperor was relying on a half-Vandal strongman to do Rome's fighting for it. I think it fell at some point during Honorius' reign, or possibly a little later during the reign of Valentinian III. Not in 476.
@@Aethelhaldmost historians say the fall of North Africa to the vandals is when the situation became much harder to reverse. So that would’ve been under Valentinian III
@@AethelhaldI would argue that the Empire didn't even fall, it just transformed. Many European countries today still retain Roman institutions, customs, religion and languages that come from Latin. The Roman Empire still lives on in a different form.
Yep, just an another side note. In my opinion the Western Roman Empire actually survived until the Gothic War (535-554). Despite the fact that the central government collapsed and Odoacer proclaimed himself the king of Italia, Roman institutions and economy continued to function. After him there were some further 're-Romanization' during the Ostrogothic rule. Once again Romans were also serving in the military and in the high echelons of the government for some extent. The Ostrogothic Kingdom spent huge resources to repair aqueducts and other important facilities. Especially this was the case during the reign of Theoderic the Great, who was de facto more of a Western Roman Emperor than the King of the Goths. And then the great Gothic war destroyed the Roman institutions and basically devastated Rome and Italia itself...
Holy hell, I respect the submitter's determination at least. Long before that point is when I'd usually call it quits and start over. 😂
Thanks 😂
For those interested, traditional date of Western Rome's death is when Romulus Augustulus was deposed in 476
I wonder what was with warring barbarian tribes taking up Roman names.
@@WarPigstheHun The history of Europe for over a thousand years was everyone and their dog claiming to be the true claimant to the title of successor/continuance of the western Romans.
@@JB-xl2jc good point.
This game has been one of my favorites for most of my life. For some reason it has always felt extremely chill and enjoyable to play. It was my first experience with total war and games in general so that is probably part of the reason why.
yeah bro, this game is astonishing for its time. And it's so playable even today! And you can add mods to put the game in different perspectives and stuff. Amazing.
I’ve been playing Medieval 2 recently and man I love so much about it. Don’t get me wrong it’s ridiculously clunky and unintuitive at times but the systems work so well together. I especially love how it’s completely normal to have 8-15 units in an army and the garrison/recruiting mechanics
Or when a couple of reinforcement units get ambushed
All they need to do is modernize those old systems and they would do well
I'm fucking loving the latest wave of historical videos. Cheers Legend from Serbia!
To batice! 😁😁😁
I’m loving the RTW and M2TW disaster saves you’ve been posting lately. In my opinion that’s your best content, so keep it up!
I thought 453 was the latest players number count on pharaoh.😅
Absolutely loving the RTW content atm. Keep it up Legend!
This OST is pure nostalgia
@1:44
No, you're thinking of (1)453, which is when the Eastern Empire fell.
yes, you're right i got mixed up
pleasure seeing you here
@@redcrown5154 Haha! No way! Not again!
keep up the based work fren :)@@CKyIe
Would love to see more Disaster-saving videos about the older games.
When we finally invent time travel, We will send legend back to save Rome.
Legend will need to watch out for Ricimer
@@lopedeaguirre1 Majorian tried, was doing well but got backstabbed...
Same for Julian the Apostate. Another great Emperor, betrayed by his own men. He was likely killed by a soldier payed by one of his political rivals.
Great to see so much rome 1 and med 2 on the channel recently, i love it
I am looking at these numbers. What is a surprise is that off-peak game videos (Rome II and Medieval) are now gathering more views than TWWHIII video reviews. Should not be that surprised as Legend is always at the top of his game at judging what will get the most attention, but a bit of a disappointment that '3 has come to this
Wow, a Total War thumbnail with "utter collapse" in it and it wasn't about the state of Creative Assembly! :o
Any reason you don't click ahead of where the units routing into the city are going? The pathfinding should work fine then and your units will do combat as they pass through the routing unit
Units won't kill nearly as much units when you tell them to run through them as they do when you give them an attack command, even if that attack command is on a unit behind the unit you want to run down. It's just a game engine thing.
Hi, do you prefer RTS camera or TW camera in RTW? Also have you ever tried to change FOV in preferences file from 75 to 90, it makes the eagle eye cam slightly more zoomed out.
watching these Rome 1 and medieval 2 disasters has made me realise something. I hate building slots as a mechanic, do not care for it. Let me build what I want, what I can afford. It has been that way for so long I'd basically forgotten but it adds nothing.
Im loving the Rome Total war vids! especially barbarian invasion a often underlooked dlc
I just want the older TW games remade in modern engines, with better UI and controls.
It’ll never happen
Ahahahah 453 ad: The collapse of creative assembly
0:00 "TOTAL WAR GAMES I DON'T PLAY"
*Has Attila installed and is currently downloading Rome 2*
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
Save files
Honestly if they fixed the AI and pathfinding in Rome 1 BI, and brought the improvements of BI to Rome base game like religion and swimming etc, it'd probably be the best Total War game ever. The modding scheme from Medieval 2 with more files being externally accessible (specially the settlement xlm one) would be really nice too...
453 AD, best year of my life 🥲
goth?
476 though
It fell in 476...
You've had a long life.
Rome: total war is so nostalgic for me, especially barbarian invasion.
Favorite childhood game and all-time favourite game.
I love these older historical total wars!
Nice to see some good old total war when everything wasnt as toxic as it is right now
The worst thing about saving a disaster campaign video, is when Legend decides, it is saved......so many enemies left to crush.
Just used the strategy used to lift the siege here to destroy an enemy Pontic army of 3200 with essentially just a general, 3 units of mercenary hoplites, a unit of Cretan archers and 2 velites. Just baited enemy units in, killed their missile cavalry from inside the settlement with the archers, killed some more of it with velites because the AI is too dumb to charge with missile cavalry and would rather exchange missile fire, and then the enemy general got himself killed by a tower shortly after having a staring match with my general. Once the cavalry was dead, my general was free to kill their peltasts and archers with impunity. Once they were thinned out enough, just charged with my general and hoplites and the exhausted enemy melee infantry broke on contact.
Holy crap that music, theres my daily dose of nostalgia.
I love the way you talk about things, not exactly sure why? hmm, I think it's because you seem engaged and I think I can hear how you put thoughts and importance into what you say.
Very happy to see "saving your disaster "again
I had no idea that other factions could become your protectorate and I had 1000s of hours back in the day as it was the only game I had on pc growing up. Weirdest diplomacy interaction I had was the rebles asking for a ceasfire.
Legend literally just roleplaying as Flavius Aetius now, PERFECT
>TOTAL WAR GAMES I DON'T PLAY
>ATTILA is installed
Wat mean?
I don t play Attila.
I play 1212 or.ancient empires 😅
Would be funny if it was actually a Medieval II disaster campaign somehow.
Really glad to see ME2 content legend, thanks for streaming my favorite faction yesterday. God bless man.
I really love the late antiquity wish I could send you a Attila savefile once I am fecked as I currently play as the francs
Makes me want to play WRE in Barbarian Invasion myself... until I see the pathing issues. It's really unfortunate that the remastered didn't remaster the things that actually need remastering: in terms of visuals Rome looks fine as it is.
41:20
I have literally never seen that in 15 years of playing this game.
So, does anyone know how to get my barbarian Invasion save out? When I load Rome 1's files, it only has my base game saves.
I'm asking because I may have a disaster, but I might not. I just gotta try a few things. It's also not too different from this disaster. Huns at Constanople's walls as ERE
This was awesome. Thanks for playing some og Rome!
Funny thing about the Alemani and their archers their chosen archers do not actually get long range but their regular ones do along with having better missile attack stat. Personally the Alemani is my favourite faction in BI because they get some of the best units in every catagory except horse archers. For melee infantry they get chosen axemen who just blend every other melee unit in a 1v1 fight, for archers they have the hunters which as I stated fufill the criteria of long range foot archers so not having/going up against horse archers is absolutely not a problem for them, for cavalry they get the Burgundian lancers which barring general's bodyguard are in the top 3 best cavalry units in the game for their decent armour, high charge and still having fast movement, and lastly for absolutely insane shenanigans there are the lombard berserkers which if used right can rout your opponent's entire army.
Woohoo! Legend is playing Historical!!
Awesome vid legends I think you would really enjoy the map randomizer for Rome total war u can get some crazy maps plus the starts for some factions can get wild.
is there any way for me to get classic rome? not that remastered garbage but the proper old rome and barbarian invasion?
ill have to check my parents house for my old boxes, but id just like to be able to purchase it online somewhere
"Barbarian Invasion" is a LOT easier than "Attila" in terms of keeping the WRE alive. Just defend the bridges, you can destroy every invasion pretty easily. But in Attila, it's not just the bar-bars, the empire is constantly revolting, taxes dry up, and you can't maintain your legions. End of game, man, end of game.
when the thumbnail showed "utter collapse" i thought it was a video about recent CA.
Thank you for providing some fine Rome cheese today Legend.
Why aren’t you playing the remaster? I know you probably have something on the channel explaining, but how come?
the save file is for the original. you have to ask the person that sent it in
1:00 in your babarian invasion playthrough, you said that paigan is better than christian buildings, because sol invictus gives public order due to law and therefore reduces corruption.
27:35 There's only really two factions in Total War: the player, and the AI. I have no hesitation in attacking the AI, regardless of diplomacy. It's all AI, which 'faction' it belongs to doesn't matter!
This campaign is at deaths door huh? I can only say one thing "Ruin has come to our family..."
Remember people, don't get Stannis Baratheoned
Man, I played so much RTW back in the day, but I never got into BI. It was always RTW classic. Kind of feels bad to never have crushed BI now but it just gets so tiresome to deal with RTW's pathfinding battle after battle.
I haven't planed Rome 1 for at least 5 years, so my mechanics are a little rusty. Does anyone know why Legend is grouping and ungrouping units? I get that it changes the order of the unit cards, but why not just use groups? Is there an advantage to not grouping your units?
The main reason why control groups can be annoying is that they become locked control groups, and unlike in newer TW games there isn't an option to unlock them. It's mostly a personal preference thing though, as LoTW likes to be able to spread his units as wide or as narrow as he thinks the situation and terrain dictate and control groups in Rome 1 don't give that sort of freedom, since whatever width the control group is at when you created it is what it will stay, unless you undo the control group and redo it at the new width.
How to your rome 1 working well on ur pc? Mine is jolty af
I like that Legend is mixing it up lately. Thanks!
all i want to know if how i get this to run and not crash constantly
i've missed historical saving your disaster, they're my favourites
Love these vids!! Are they doing okay enough for you to continue them though? Thanks to some of your tactics, I think I'll start a very hard campaign :)
I think its best to have actual disasters though, I know some people do it intentionally.
The king is back! Now we just need the black prince melkor.
I like to imagine this was the same save file as your last West Rome disaster, and he just seriously trashed all the progress you made to give you an even worse disaster
Legend, how did you get Rome to run smoothly on a modern system?
Chariot Ballistas are what war wagons should be in Warhammer 2.
Man those mounted ballistas would be very enjoyable in Attila
I know this is a bit irrelevant, but does anyone know how to get rid of the campaign lag in rome total war? I tried downloading that ded8ll filw or whatever but it doesn't seem to work
Markus Wolfheart and his wagons to the rescue!
I want to just stay in bed and watch the legendoftotalwar videos but my parents said i must go out and socialize with my family 😭
He is in a tough spot, even after you've pulled him back from the brink.
This way Legend can farm another disaster out of this campaign.
Love the throwback legend!
im not sure how you are with history but would be nice to get an overview of the factions in rome and medevil total war
This Giga Chad of a man... The only person who is not only worthy to be called so but literally MUST be considered THE Legend of Total War
The Plumbata of the Comitatenses would have had the arc and range to hit those cav
why dont u do modded total wars like third age?
so much better than warhammer, glad to see legend on top form
i freaking love you, thanks for returning to real TW games
This is what's currently going on in CA
some of the walls look deadly in rome 1. rome 2 some of the walls are barely bigger than our buildings.
Hi legend, long time fan of your historical tw content, cheers for not posting warhammer aye, i recently got med 2 again
Yes, thanks for the video
An hour long video from Legend "cheers".
Why not people send disaster of the remaster version? What's wrong with it?
I haven't played it but I know many dislike it's ui
Banger
Starfield in favorits... Legend, you need a doctor... come back to the light side...
I put games that i play frequently in my favourites so they're easy to find. I dont think starfield will remain there for much longer.
@@LegendofTotalWar i'm very happy to read it 😃 now i can calm, knowing that you are healthy 😇
Almani units have some really good stats, such as golden band. I used to play them in multiplayer but lost all the time because I sucked
How about trying the original Total War Rome? I mean the original original :P The first one, the classic: Centurion: Defender of Rome :D
Defeat in detail
Damn been a while since I seen a Steam Library with so few games.
1000 years later best part of all humanity.1453!!!!
Can you share the disaster saves please?
Is this the return of the horse sandwich?
you should make an exception for darthmod campaigns imo
I know you don’t do mods, but you should definitely do a lord of the rings mod play through in medieval 2
