It really isn't. Mechanically for what Total War fans want Total War to be, it is in fact the best game in the franchise. Every other game since has been broken, cursed by shady developer decisions or so niche and unmoddable like Shogun 2 that it's never going to be as successful. Or they're gimmicky slop designed for streamers to make stupid challenge videos like every single Warhammer game.
