Oyunun potansiyeli var ama çok eskimiş. Bir remake gelse mükemmel olur bence.

The second best Total War game after Rome Total War and second best RTS game in my opinion. Everything worked, battles and politics, all made sense, and it captured the magic of medieval times. 10/10

Basically Rome: Total War but yet, somehow better in every way. If you even remotely like medieval history, or history in general, this is a must-play.

Hands down one of the best of its kind. With huge replayability, you’ve got one of the most fun gameplays you will find anywhere coupled with the most epic and beautifully composed music in the genre. Who doesn’t like a good medieval setting, anyway? This game hasn’t been matched in almost 20 years and it doesn’t look like it will anytime soon.

One of the best in the history of the game. While many games are being renewed, see: Diablo II, this game also urgently needs to be re-released with new features. The buyer is already ready. I'm sure it will reach serious sales with just a few innovations.

Favorite game of all time i come back to it at least once a year, perfect mix of strategy, country running, and army commanding. The on the field battles never get old and still holds up to new total wars. Have never found a game like it or a game i enjoyed enough to return to it year after year for the last 17 years.

While it was a good game for the year it was released, it is now too dated to be played anymore. This series either needs a new game or a remake of the second game.

Very good game, fun to play with a lot of different approaches, diplomacy, agents, war... Also good tactical considerations on battles but may have more settlements management

Probably the best total war game I've ever played. AI is good and resists at higher levels. The system and strategy in the game also look great.

The best Total War game. Period. While the battles are not as balanced as Shogun 2, everything else is great. The standout for me are the politics and religion, which are reasonably deep (by Total War standards). I also love the Crusader Kings aspect of the game, where building the family tree becomes really important.

Battles are fun but sometimes it’s a bit hard to control your soldier as they seem to do what they want.

The best game that I've played in the series. There is just something about it that works better then any game I've played. Cons: the units have some really bad pathfinding (especially in cities/castles), the AI can be very special and sometimes makes choices that leave me dumbfounded, Graphics are out dated for current games, but this game came out in 2006 so that's not an issue for me. Pros: Cities and castles build up naturally and in a way that makes sense, the battles are massive and the sense of scale of watching thousands in massive battle lines while knights fight on the wings is awe inspiring, the campaign is a great experience when dealing with the pope and his many asks. If you want to command a medieval army, this is the game for you.

Rome 2, but medieval and everything's highly improved. Absolute banger ****. It was just perfect, and still playable in 2022, which says for itself.

This is the kinf of massive rts games in my opinion. A gem for its age. The medieval theme was very suitable for a game of the total war series. Soundtrack is really memorable.

Самая любимая, самая народная, самая лучшая часть Total War которая играбельна по сей день даже в ванильном варианте. Creative Assembly умножили и улучшили все самые лучшие механики серии и довели действительно до совершенства. Невероятное количество действительно качественных модов которые сделаны для данной игры как подтверждение всемирной любви к игре.

In 2021 I am writing reviews for the best games that I ever played. This is one of them, and I played it a lot.

Как по мне сражения были интереснее в Total War: Rome. Опять в начале доступно только несколько фракций. Заключать союзы нет смысла, все равно даже если на вас нападут ваш союзник ничего делать не будет! ИИ плохо командует войсками у него всегда огромные потери. Как по мне Total War: Rome был лучше!

Basically a legend. Hundred of hours of game play, mediocre diversity, mediocre graphics for its time.

Excellent game, perfect for fans of strategies. I have to be honest, I **** at leading my troops so the AI wrecked me mercilessly. The auto-fight results in wins based more on numbers than quality, plus removes the whole fun of being commander.

I still play this in 2020, its a shame that its code locked to so little provinces and factions, it really restricts the modding community, mods are the only reason why i still play this

It was well made game. Graphics were much better than alexander in same year. Gameplay were worse than rome total war and fun was also. It was little bit slow but still can get a shot, it is also most moddable one in it's series so think about playing it today. You can enjoy from it more than others with mods. Graphics:10/10 Sounds: 10/10 Gameplay: 9/10 Fun: 9/10

Very diversified factions, very good battles, excellent campaig. The only thing that prevents this from being the best game I ever played is the diplomacy (it's a bit lacking)

Ainda melhor do que "Rome Total War", este se passa no final da Idade Média com lindos gráficos de 2006, trilha sonora espetacular e DLC que nos trazem Cruzadas, Inglaterra na Dark Ages e a conquista da América. Merecia, sem dúvidas, uma continuação.

in name of allah this game still fun. best history war game to date. other total wars try t obeat that but non achive this level. the lord of the rings or game of thrones mods of this game better than offical games. muslims in this game first time in west presented actual value and realstlcy. its universal game.

Brilliant game that has stood the test of time. For me, it will always be the ultimate member of the Total War franchise. Huge range of units, many playable factions and really open to tactical freedom. Have also only just (2019!) played the Brittania DLC and really enjoying it. A break from the chaos with a smaller pool of factions involved. Only negative remains as always - a totally flawed alliance system. It relies on gifts and tributes, but will still be impossible to maintain an alliance, the AI are coded to backstab!

Любимая стратегия детства,единственное что меня всегда вымораживало в этой игре - недопиленая система дипломатии.Папа отлучает либо тебя,либо твоего противника 50/50 лотерея, при условии того,что Папа не был рожден на свет в одной из двух стран участниц. Перед нападением тебе обязательно предложат:заплати 250 или будет война,если на терпилычах выплачиваешь-она будет,если на аскетычах зажимаешь-её не будет).Ооочень странная дипломатия.Это пожалуй её единственный минус.В остальном,по моему скромному субъективному мнению это игра имеет лучшую систему РТС боев из всех военно-направленных стратегий.

Best total war game out of the old ones. Just perfect grand strategy with incredible mods like Third Age. I am sure everyone fan of strategies know M2TW so there is no reason to write more here :D.

Still a great experience even after 12 years from release. Games mechanics works just fine, graphics is not bad even nowadays, great soundtrack but AI could be a little bit clever. For me the best game from the Total War serie and still a piece that you should try.

Probably my favourite game, definitely on my top 5. Bought it back in 2006 and eleven years later and I'm still playing it. Mods like Stainless Steel also inject longevity into the title. This is a true strategy game where careful planning and timing will almost always trump brute-force and tank-rush tactics. In my opinion the Total War serious went in a downward spiral after TW:M2, but what a peak it is.

Simply a masterpiece, never has a game since perfectly represented medieval combat, strategy and sheer size. Over 1000s of units on the screen at once, with little-to-no impact on your PC. A legendary AI that uses tactics and everything the game has to offer, and if that doesn't take your fancy, the modding community surely has something that can entertain you. Pros: - Epic (siege & regular) battles with 1000+ units. - In-depth tactics that anybody could learn and utilise. - More advanced tactics and strategies for veterans of M2TW. - A large world map with many settlements to conquer or hold. Cons: - At battles with 1500+ units, the game becomes choppy when played at x6 and x2 speed.

An all-time PC game classic. This game is epic in scope, seamless in execution and breathtaking in detail. While Historical accuracy is not a big concern in this game, as a graduate in Medieval history I still enjoy it. The strategy map gives you a massive array of options, challenges and tools to conquer the world. Your rivals act in a fairly sensible manner, attacking each other and you in equal measure. Every playthrough will be subtly different. However I have one minor criticism - diplomacy. This is an incredibly illogical and buggy system. Betrayal of alliances is virtually guaranteed regardless of what is done in the game. Some factions will act provocatively, i.e. by placing large armies by settlements but you will be regarded as 'treacherous' for responding. This is a minor bug though. All-in-all I've played it for 1,000 hours (according to Steam) and I'm looking forward to the next game.

One of the best games in history. It's a shame things happened the way they did. The rest of the games in the series besides Rome Total War are absolute disappointments.

This will remain my favorite game of the series until Medieval3 comes along(hopefully of same quality). If you liked the new games you should definitely try this one, if you didn't than more so you need to try this proper TW.

Great strategy game for its time. It is still a good game to this day, but it has clearly aged. The management of your cities for example can be incredibly painful when you have a lot of cities.

Build pretty cities and stare at them amazed on the strategic map. Then realize the single player campaign is garbage because CA can't write AI to save their lives. You can win any siege with 1-3 units of any kind and ballista/cannon towers. Move unit outside of walls. Enemy will charge in. Walk back inside castle. Enemy slowly retreats while getting hit by tower fire. Rinse and repeat. Uninstall game in anger. Shogun Total War (1) was better.

Medieval II Total war. En mi opinión uno de los mejores de la saga, Los gráficos son muy buenos en especial para un juego de 2006 (e jugado juegos de estrategia de 2015 con peores gráficos). el sonido un clásico de la Edad media muy interesante y muy bueno se lucieron con los sonidos y la BSO es sublime . En este juego demostró una vez mas quien mandaba en la categoría de juegos de estrategia .

This is one of my favorite Total War games if not my favorite. The game has a lot of good things such as the family tree, diplomacy, combat, the economic system etc., but there are a few problems that keeps this game from being a 10. For example: sometimes can be just downright stupid or brain dead, the AI will declare war on you for no reason even if you are allied, and some of the quests that the game gives you are questionable. Although these problems aren't so prevalent to the point of it being God awful.

Best total war in the series. Great fun! The best time, fine graphics (though they might be a little bit outdated nowadays --> MODS are the answer) absolutely fantastic gameplay, great music. Oh did I mention the mods?! Free to download a huge Third Age lord of the rings mod which basically is a game of its own. Besides that many many great mods, like Stainless Steel. Absolutely worth giving a try!

Probably my favorite of the entire series. Especially with all the modding that's been done. My only issue is some of the AI is garbage, and there's some unavoidable bugs. I also wish they would have left out the muskets and guns.
