This added more depth and complexity to the game’s economical and diplomacy systems. However, the biggest changes to the core Total War formula unique to A Total War Saga Troy was dividing one financial in-game currency (gold) into several different resources like food, bronze, gold, stone, wood, and more. In actuality, not only was A Total War Saga Troy optimized and smooth, Creative Assembly did a lot of work in re-introducing the best of what came before and refining them even further including the improved diplomacy system and legendary heroes from Total War Three Kingdoms, as well as fantasy elements with Greek gods providing buffs and benefits to the addition of mythical creatures as playable units à la Total War Warhammer. This was a bummer because the game was surprisingly stable and almost bug-free at launch, something that would have been unthinkable for the company that launched Total War Rome 2 in such a broken state back in 2013. It ultimately didn’t work as well as it should have, feeling like the game compromised on too much. It felt like the developers wanted to try and hit the middle ground between history and fantasy. The biggest problem with A Total War Saga Troy at launch was how half-baked the concept felt. Well, I’m here to answer both that question and whether or not historical Total War fans should even bother with this game.

If you’re one of the seven million players who redeemed the game for free on the Epic Games Store but have since dropped the game, I’m sure you’re wondering whether the game is even worth returning to even with all the expansion and new content. Now, about a year later, I’m returning to A Total War Saga Troy with not only the game’s new full-on fantasy Mythos expansion but also after a year’s worth of updates and patches. I would also like to clarify that I played A Total War Saga Troy when it launched on Epic Games Store last year, but it didn’t take long before I went to the older Total War titles. I’m explaining all this first so that you, the reader, will have an idea of my background as a Total War player before delving into this review. To this day, my favourite Total War games are Total War Rome 2 and Total War Attila. As such, I was never a fan of the fantasy elements introduced in the Total War Warhammer games or even the over-the-top legendary heroes featured in Total War Three Kingdoms. I’ve admittedly always been a fan mostly because I’m a huge history buff, especially when it comes to matters of war and conflict. I have hundreds or possibly thousands of hours across many Total War games, so trust me when I say I’m no newbie to Creative Assembly’s Total War franchise (you can even check my Steam profile for validation).
