Critic Reviews for Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia
The wait for a new historical Total War game is finally over! Sort of.
A brilliant early game and bold experiments almost make up for the AI niggles and the boring march to the final battle.
The first Total War Saga game tries a lot of new things, succeeding at about half of them. 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 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. But there are too many blemishes for me to place it alongside some of its truly great peers like Attila and Warhammer.
Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia makes a hearty meal out of pig-sticking, pillaging, and politics.
For Total War fans this is likely a must-have title, but to anyone else Thrones of Britannia is a confusing mess that simply isn't welcoming to series newcomers.
Thrones of Britannia is a nice new view of the Total War franchise and the changes made by Creative Assembly seems to be the future for it.

Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia has flaws, but it condenses properly the Total War formula in a more accessible way and, before all else, carves the optimum path for the forthcoming spin-offs.

An understandable attempt to create a more accessible Total War experience, but it's been streamlined so much it offers only a small taste of the series' full potential.
