City View and Family Trees
Anyone else remember city view from the original Rome:Total War, or the family tree in Medieval II:Total War? I remember both of them being instrumental towards the immersion and attachment I had to those games and to the campaigns I played within them, seeing my cities expand as I built them and tracing my family line back through the ages made the game feel like a story, an adventure with it's own unique history, of which you were it's owner and creator. By contrast, the games since Medieval II: Total War have felt stale by comparison, even while many have expanded upon the series in meaningful and expansive ways, the feel of the games has been lacking, and so I hoped that in this game that was to be the spiritual successor to Rome, the first game within the total war series that I played and of which I still have strong nostalgic memories to this day, that such features might return. Does anyone else feel the same?
