IKR.. Games like Shogun 2 Total War and Rome Total War at release were amazing.. But then you have Rome 2.. Which not only was a disaster, but the devs lied their asses off in the promotion of the game pre-release with graphics not matching up to what they claimed, or things like AI being awful even though they said they were putting tons of resources into "taking it to the next level".. Not saying Warhammmer will be bad, but people are seriously need to be leery of this game until people get their hands on the actual product in a uncontrolled setting..

Well to be fair the AI of Rome 2 was far more advanced than the AI in previous games, which is to say the back end is far more advanced. The problem is it launched unfinished and it took a bit under a year to get working to a reasonable level.
Creative Assembly has had a lot of quality concerns. Empire Total War was very buggy, Shogun 2 had a lot of problems, Rome 2 was a disaster, and Attila was meh. Creative Assembly has also juggled some pretty poor DLC and microtransaction practices that have compromised their games in the past. They didn't start off on a good foot with Warhammer but they've been trying to save face ever since.
We'll see, but I do not see this game hitting AAA here.
@Wasdie: CA has been streaming alot of tw lately including a few others on youtube and it doesn't look anywhere near as buggy. I'm sure there are bugs but it doesn't look like its anywhere as bad compared to past games. The fact they let other PPl stream the game early is a sign there confident.

They did delay this one for some extra polish and they've been using this engine since Rome 2. I expect Warhammer to be a lot less buggy but I'll remain a bit skeptical.
That's why I refuse to take those self proclaimed professional reviewers seriously anymore, cause these guys are just simple gamers like us. A professional reviewer can fanboy for a game or a platform just as much as any other gamer, it is no secret that ign and gamespot endorses console gaming more than pc gaming. But the same can be said about smaller reviewers such as angry joe, Mack and Totalbiscuit who mostly prefer pc gaming over console gaming. I still watch those types of reviews from time to time just for the sake of entertainment. Totalbiscuit, Angry Joe and Jim Inquisition are my favourites.

@thepclovingguy: GS rated rome 2 a 8 and that was by far the most disastrous launch in history in tw
And they gave Attila a 7, which is one of the better TW games and had smooth launch. Lol critics.
@sSubZerOo: youtuber have already stream the game. Its nowhere as bad compare to Rome 2. It looks much more polish than atilla or rome 2 post launched
... Yet again not in a CONTROLLED SETTING.. And for the later part, what? Rome 2 Total War looked AMAZING pre-release with all the bullshit Creative Assembly was pitching.. Bordering on the kind of bullshit we saw with Gearbox on Alien Colonial Marines.. Seriously you fool are merely promoting the bullshit preorder culture that allow for shit like Rome 2 and Alien Colonial Marines happen.. Wait for the game to actually release in which we can see a finished product in a uncontrolled setting before you go tooting your horn..

They were not controlled setting they were playing on the campaign map for over a hour on these streams not some pre made battle. This channel has uploaded almost every single stream where they were playing the actual campaign. There absolutely no way were they in controlled setting. Big channel like Yogacast had a stream of them playing the game as well and they said it fine. How about you actually do some research instead talking as if you seen the game.

I have watched every single stream of the game so obviously I know what I seen. Nobody is saying it going be straight out amazing but every youtuber that has stream the game said the game runs finet. The popular total war gamer have already stream the game and made mention how much they enjoyed it. Maybe if you bother to watch some of the streams out there you would actually know.
