      CA has made an absolute mess of the series with these games. The issues are numerous but they got worse as they created power creep with DLC factions. I swear to whatever god you pray to, CA either has almost none or actually no QA department when it comes to DLC factions. Or they're grossly underpaid and not given nearly enough time to test all the factions. And since the game is so disgustingly driven by statistics, it's extremely easy to create broken units in this series of games. It's dog shit, to be frank. 99% of the units have the same behavior and the only distinguishing feature is their statistics which are so easily manipulated, these are just bad strategy games that don't blend RPG and strategy well. It's far more RPG than anything.

      Thats true but all you need to do really is play on lower difficulty. This game is design lazy, AI is programed lazy and difficulty is basicly just cheats. You can turn of all battle cheats to damage and leadership and set game on hard or very hard anyway. To enjoy this game you play on easy or normal if you are begginer or hard very hard if you played much and want more chaalange. Never legendary. If you dont want any cheats you dont play above normal. (Before that option to turn of battle cheats I've never played on hard.) It not helps with everything whats wrong with this game but can allow you to have fun experiment with unusual or lore accurate armies.

      TW:W3 simply isn't fun, the Realm of Chaos is a massive chore with portals so annoying they were modded out on release day, the "Siege rework" is a pathetic joke, that in most cases made the battles worse, they're just as uninteresting, but now they take longer, cause more attrition and the layouts and pathfinding are worse (GrEAt SucCeSS).
      Factions mechanics also are mostly boring to play and completely infuriating to deal with (I curse your units and they die, I steal your units, I steal your city, .... What do you mean "no counter-play").
      This game has devolved to a predatory DLC simulator, flinging increasing amounts of bullshit at the player whose main """fun""" is to "keep up" with the trash, by spamming single entities and cheesing the AI to get through the unfun parts of the game (about 60% of the play-through) just to abandon the campaign after 100 turns because the AI is still retarded and won't prove a challenge anymore. As a long time fan of both Warhammer and Total War, I really couldn't imagine a worse game.
      Whats the point of playing lore-accurate balanced armies? They'll just get ambushed on attack by Skaven and entirely wiped because your archers and artillery can't attack. Or your entirely front-line will get single-handedly killed by one hero after you wiped the floor with his army. Lore-accurate simply doesn't work, because TW:W is not lore accurate.
