    You have had 6 years to make the third game better then the second game. It isnt. All demon factions arent fleshed out enough and cathay and kislev are woke disney garbage. Total Woke Hammer should be the name of this game.

    TW: Warhammer II is one of my all time favorite computer games, so of course I bought this and, honestly, I don't get how this company could screw up so badly.

    This feels and plays like a middling mod for WH2. You get new map, units and factions, and that's pretty much where benefits end and problems begin. Performance is much worse than W:TW2 despite the map being smaller than ME.

The "tweaks" or "features" added are mostly failures - UI changes for worse, realm of chaos is clunky, new setlement-type battles with building stuff on the map are annoying.

    I give it a 4 because it still has the W:TW2 engine at heart, but honestly if you are new to the series - buy W:TW2 and skip this.    … Expand

    A decent game under the massive flaws and bugs it has brought along. Battles feel bland without the dreaded Blood DLC and the factions seem a lot more sparse on release than Total War: Warhammer 2's.

    The campaign is easily the worst out of the 3 in the series. CA seems too arrogant when it comes to listening to the community. Most of the problems in the first 2 games are still present and even made worse (gates, vassals, cowardly campaign map ai etc.)

    I'm not quite sure what they were thinking with the changes they made because almost all the changes are for the worse compared to WH2.

    The new settlement towers and barricades? Pure cancer. The towers in particular are utterly unbalanced and make every battle a slog. I say every battle rather than just "siege battles" because the AI absolutely refuse to fight you on the open field unless they outnumber you hugely. I've had three open field battles in 6 hours of play. Big, fun set-piece battles are meant to be the centrepiece of this game and this one fails at it's most fundamental level.

    The new mechanic where rifts into chaos randomly appear in your territories every turn? One of the most annoying mechanics they could have devised. Not only is there no way to prevent this but they take your provinces from 0 to 100 corruption in three turns, discourge enemy agents into your lands and often enemy armies. This means that the only viable tactic is to turtle and spam end turn since, if you expand, you cannot protect your provinces properly.

    The game economy is broken. This makes having more than one army nearly impossible (especially due to the necessary turtling) and good luck saving enough money to get decent settlements unless you farm Slaanesh's rewards.

    Does it have good AI? LOLNO, all AI factions at war will make a beeline for the player no matter how stupid it is to do so. This has always been an issue but it's so much worse in WH3. The AI also outright and blatantly cheats in respect of the main quest (you can watch it do so in front of your eyes) but, even worse, if they collect all the souls before you that is an instant game over and there is no option to buy more time by defeating them in battle.

    The UI? Far inferior to the WH2 one.

    Optimisation? It runs like a legless paraplegic on a floor made of needles. Look forward to constant graphical glitches and stuttering.

    Bugs? Quite a few game breaking ones but you'll only find out after having wasted several hours on a campaign.

    I am going to have to ditch the game until the big combined map comes out or until there is mod support to get rid of the many, many issues because the gameplay is actively anti-fun at present and that is coming from someone who actually quite liked the Vortex campaign in WH2 (which a lot of people complained about).

    Very sadly, this is the first TW game that I simply cannot recommend. Hopefully they'll fix some of this in patches but I suspect that much of it is unfixable because it represents inexplicable design decisions which would need to be redesigned from the ground up. Regardless, I'll keep an open mind and I hope that I can change this review to a positive at a later date.    … Expand

    Awful experience compared to TTW2. After more than year it feels like a beta or the Early Access. The game developers are definitely not the same who designed the brilliant tomb kings and vampire coast. While playing the same faction in TWW3, you can get more broken mechanics and much more boring gameplay as it was.

    Start this off by saying this is my first Warhammer game but have enjoyed other total war games, most recently Troy. There are some good qualities about the game but I have two major gripes that really need some work.

There are some good qualities about the game but I have two major gripes that really need some work.

    1. The rifts opening up in your territory is infuriating and honestly pretty stupid. The “corruption” they cause is just as bad so I feel like I’m spending more time babysitting the rift spawns than actually playing the game. I have to amass a bunch of tiny crap armies to ensure my land won’t get absolutely eaten by armies coming through the rift or corruption causing rebellion and I never want to play these fights because they do not pose a real threat and if you make any advancements in your territory you will be encountering a ton of these fights.

    2. This is honestly the worst one, I missed the first rift event on my play through not thinking it was that big of a deal, never missed one after, and this put me behind and I lost. I really have no idea how I could have came back, and I really didn’t think that just missing one event would be so catastrophic that it would ruin the entire run. I had no idea who had claimed the souls before me so it was impossible for me to attack that nation and to ensure they couldn’t win. It would have been great to know or have an option to prevent them from just outright winning but sadly that isn’t an option so I ended up wasting a good 12 hours worth of play time.

    Some other minor issues I had was the game crashes all the time. I also felt like my units were consisted of a bunch of morons that I had to constantly babysit so they didn’t just stand there and get murdered. It felt like the AI knew when my archers were in skirmish mode and would run at them until they turned around (they were behind a line of infantry mind you) and they would then stop and let their archers fire on me and I wouldn’t be firing back. Not the biggest issue most of the time but often I’d get stuck toying with my cavalry and had forgotten to take them off skirmish so my front line would get hit 2-3 times before I caught on. Also on some higher difficulties it feels as though, no matter the infantry, my units just lose in hand to hand combat. It felt undeserved in many cases as I’d have two superior units fighting one and they would just lose making it feel like an artificial challenge because the devs can’t create a smart enough AI to actually challenge the user!

    On the other hand the game is not all bad and I’m sure with a couple of balancing patches it will be better just kind of disappointing at release    … Expand

    The Realms of Chaos campaign is tedious and unrewarding. The plot is very low-effort and uncompelling and its mechanics just aren't fun.

    The unit pathing has been re-worked and is more awful, yet more integral than ever. If one member of a unit gets caught on something/someone the rest of the unit can't advance or take orders and continually goes back for the lost unit.

    I was stoked when I found out that multiplayer can have up to 8 people and the turns are simultaneous, but every multiplayer game I've played has inevitably crashed right after large battles. Now add the fact that the RoC campaign is generally not very fun and contains a lot of unrewarding busywork and even the 8-player multi-campaign isn't that appealing.

    Sieges are now worse than ever. All they had to do was add Three Kingdoms style sieges, instead WH3 has an RTS tower defence game on top of labyrinthian settlement maps- did I mention that the pathing is now horrible? Yeah, the end result of the changes to WH sieges is that now they take longer, are more tedious and more clumpy. You're expected to keep an eye on resources that you (as the defender) generate and also building towers and barricades *in real time,* which apparently only takes about 60 seconds per construction. Where are we getting these resources from? We're *under siege*. Why wait until the enemy is attacking to put up your defenses? Everything about it makes it the least TW thing Ca has ever done, more micromanagement with significantly less immersion. It's a shameful display.

    There's plenty of improvements, too: Quality of life stuff like being able to save hero builds, use quickdeal diplomacy and set a budget for your towns to automanage themselves. (Although the RoC campaign has so many BS hoops to jump through my budget has generally been strained in every game, so haven't had a chance to use this budget feature.) Also just the factions themselves; lots of cool models, aesthetics, voice acting, all good stuff. It's just completely outweighed by all the bad stuff.

    Been playing TW for 20 years and this is the first one to bore me out of playing it within the first couple days. Also it's filled to the brim with bugs. And Immortal Empires will likely be fun, even though it's been a month and that's still not out yet. Just been a few patches that fixed stuff and tweaked/balanced *nothing.*

    TLDR: Bad campaign, bad sieges and bad story. Cool content though?    … Expand

Which is the only game mode I play. You can't play any of the armies from the previous games. The campaigns themselves are boring its hard to get more than a couple armies going, the whole time your playing chaos whack a moll. Chaos just spawns over and over in the same spots. Who thought this would be fun it's just really annoying and makes every playthrough feel the same.each chaos faction has very few units.this game kinda sucks… Expand

    The AI is still cheating like crazy.

    Total War AI has always been cheating. I had hopes that Creative Assembly would stop being lazy and

    a) modernize the Engine (10 Bit, HDR, proper multi core optimization, DX12 features, proper Surround Sound etc)
    b) give us naval battles
    c) properly code the AI
    d) especially fix pathfinding, since that has always been a major problem

    but in the end all we got is a TW WH II reskin with a new map and a couple minor mechanics (some are just reskins from WH II DLC variants) that tanked the FPS in half. It's a bit of a shame that CA wasn't able to deliver anything of meaning after 5 years of working on this game. The groundwork is old, the AI is still programmed bad, we have no naval battles and the pathfinding and collision system is still broken, also the armor system.

    Warhammer III deserves better. CA has the money to deliver better. So the question is: Why didn't they?

    Rift mechanic was fun when I first played a campaign, instantly when I started the second, it bothered me. It's no fun for replay. There should be a button to disable to campaign/rift mechanic, so we can just enjoy some campaign gameplay.

    And the performance... Warhammer III runs like crap. My 3090 can barely achieve 30-35 FPS, where WH II gave me 55-65 FPS. It's probably the old engine. It's still 8bit, no proper multicore optimization, no DX12 features that could give the GPU some headroom. That happens when you try and cramp in features into an old engine that wasn't made for it. CA went lazy and didn't want to properly update their engine, and here you have the result.

    Why don't we have a timeline for bug fixes and new features (IE)?

    This game has issues. Not only performance and in-game bugs, but also design choices (after max 2 campaigns, Rifts are just no fun anymore). The game actively punishes you if you dare expand, not to mention that Daemon of Chaos and Kislev are officially labelled as "newbie friendly", even though they are everything butt (getting swarmed by full stacks after a couple rounds from all directions is not newbie friendly). These are serious problems. The game has been released more than two weeks ago, "influencers" were able to play the game weeks before that. Meaning Creative Assembly had more than a month now to realize the issues at hand and make a timeline.

    Where is that timeline?

    Where is the list of issues that CA has managed to assemble? Share it with us, so we can complete that list.

    When can we expect to play the Immortals Empire campaign? There's no problem in saying: "We are focusing on addressing bugs and performance, IE is still two months out, maybe more", what is a problem is NOT talking about it.

    Warhammer III could be so much more.

I would bet money that CA's management is who's to blame here and it was a miracle it had a delayed release, because I don't want to think about what it would've looked like if it was released earlier.

    CA needs to listen to the playerbases' feedback and change the game accordingly or else this will just devolve into definitely the bottom of the barrel amongst their other releases alone, and there's Atilla and Rome 2 to compete with. And what's with their focus on multiplayer gameplay and feedback? Why aren't changes to units separate between multiplayer and and campaign?

    Although the Immortal Empires format, which will combine all three games into one large map, was not yet available at the time of review, the world itself is large even in the individual parts. Its treatment and variety of climatic zones and chaotic crevasses deserve high praise, and the freedom of creative license has been used to the fullest by the authors at Creative Assembly in this regard as well.
