The aesthetics and art direction of TROY are the biggest positives of the game. I’m aware that multiplayer will be added nearly three months after, but this only begs the question of why the game wasn’t delayed to avoid such a criticism, as well as work on polishing several of the other issues with the game and adding even more content. This is the first Total War game to launch without multiplayer for either battles or campaign, which is an egregious and inexcusable major feature strip for the launch of a Total War game.
The first of many major issues with TROY arises with its modes, specifically the lack of any kind of multiplayer at launch. On a basic level, the campaign works as intended and will provide potentially hundreds of hours of content to play through. The campaign mode is the centerpiece of any single player mode in the Total War franchise and this time the game is set during the mythical Homeric Trojan War (roughly 13-12th centuries BCE) where players choose from a roster of eight heroes split evenly amongst the Achaean and Trojan Alliances. Custom battles allow players to choose from a variety of factions, compose their armies with a set amount of funds, and fight battles without any campaign strategic context on any map of their choosing. There are two main modes available at launch: custom battles and campaign. At its core, TROY continues this well-established formula as it provides a large variety of options to the player for approaching the development and expansion of their empire or faction. When two hostile armies meet on the campaign map, players will transition to the real-time element of the game, where they deploy troops from their armies onto colorful and varied maps and do battle.

The Total War series and its spinoff Saga series, which TROY is a part of, are 4X strategy games with a turn-based campaign strategic layer where players focus on diplomacy, territorial conquest, resource management, research, and city development. With this installment, Creative Assembly reaffirms that it’s truly a AAA strategy game developer and business with all the good and the bad that that entails.
A TOTAL WAR SAGA TROY FACTIONS UPDATE
This update adds five additional factions to the list, because a list of ten leaves out several factions that need to be included.A Total War Saga: TROY is a standard Total War experience with a solid core formula and gameplay loop, though its stagnant and minimal innovation squanders its potential.
Other factions have to deal with stronger factions from the start (like one of the Roman factions) but have strong units early on that allow them to halt the advance of Rome's legions or Egypt's chariots. Many factions are not that strong in the early part of a game, but have a remote starting position that gives them time to build a strong empire and army. Starting position in this game is important.
