MYTHBUSTERS
The work never stops when you’re trying to organize a holiday to Troy with a bunch of your Greek pals. I just want to smash some walls, but I’ve got soldiers freaking out about bad omens, centaurs that need fed, petulant deities setting fire to stuff like bored pyromaniac teens, and people pestering me endlessly about bronze they really don’t need. Get your own bronze, Achilles! A Total War Saga: Troy never lets up.
If you’ve read any of the Greek epics that serve as Troy’s inspiration, you’ll know that everyone’s horrible, especially the gods. Thanks to some divine meddling, this Orlando Bloom-looking asshole runs off with Helen, the Spartan queen, and takes her back to the titular city, plunging the Aegean into a brutal war. Troy still lets you fight whomever you want, but everyone is ultimately gearing up for this big brawl between east and west.
The eight factions have their own epic quests, but victory only being the most purposeful that I’ve ever played. While you’re getting ready for the big showdown, however, there are a whole lot of distractions.
