TW Games Unplayable
I have over 1000 hours in this franchise as it is my favorite, however, we need to talk about the optimization issues regarding the legacy titles starting from Shogun 2 up to ToB. In the last decade CA delivered games that are not supported by the modern hardware, and they seem reluctant to update their engine to 64-bit which is criminal by the way. The fact that they have only a single dedicated developer (ToB guy) just shows the way they treat these historical games. My PC specs are RTX 5070Ti with 16GB VRAM and yet I am unable to get 30-40 FPS during campaigns in Rome 2 and Attila. In Shogun 2, even though the campaign is optimized the battle stutters when I zoom in. The only games that are much more optimized in comparison to these games are Troy and Pharaoh but those games are not as addictive as the others. In my opinion CA has already outstayed its welcome and it is time as players we raise this issue so that they start putting more developers to handle optimization issues, otherwise I do not see a reason to come back to play a TW game that looks garbage with a performance that is even worse.
