What goes wrong
However, when I tried to play it again in 2026 Jan - I just can't launch the game.
This game is absurdly overpriced for what it is.
Every battle feels the same, so you end up feeling like you do not progress at all and play the same scenario over and over again.
Stuff is quote on quote "free" but once you try to get the free stuff it then costs money. Such a boring money grab game. Optimized terribly, and just overall wants to get all your money.
The game is way too easy there is no reason to fight any of the battles manually. Not a rewarding strategy experience in my opinion,
What goes well
Very good game!
Insane strategy game and loads of thinkin aswell as planning, attacking, great characters and i highly reccomend this game!!!!
Brilliant game that keeps giving more with tons of play time and replayability!
Fantastic game that the devs have done a great job continuing to develop and support.
Overall, Total War: Warhammer III blends the strategic depth of the series with a universe that’s bold, imaginative, and constantly surprising.

I spent way too many hours on this game. I just bought the vanilla--didn't buy any DLC. No need--just playing a single campaign takes weeks, and I was all played out after playing just one faction.
TW Warhammer 3 is fine game for SP but in MP with friends if you have them is great: Coordinate with friends Wait in lobby for all to be ready Start lobby, a friend wants to join Leave session and...
I got into Total War: Warhammer III quite by chance. Even though I love tactical, turn-based, and strategy games, I was initially very hesitant to try this one.
