Or, in fewer words, Thrones of Britannia is not one of the greatest Total Wars ever, but it’s still good. The overall tapestry reads as more than competent, and I could watch hardened huskarls with their massive axes crash into a Saxon shield wall all day.

It improves on a few areas historical Total War games have struggled with, but at the same time falls back into some bad, old habits that other games in the series were able to rise above. The first Total War Saga game tries a lot of new things, succeeding at about half of them. But to achieve that, it has to forego some of the integral parts of the Total War series, such as city planning or specific building customization.

The general consensus is that Thrones of Britannia is an exciting game that experiments a lot and tries new things. That’s why they’re cheaper too ($39.99 instead of $59.99). For the record, Total War Saga games are supposed to be shorter than the normal entries. Going through some of the most popular user reviews, most unhappy gamers accuse Thrones of Britannia of not having as much depth as previous Total War entries. Steam users are, as usual, much more challenging.
