Related to *juice*. The Orz like *sauce*, which they seem to acquire through killing: "After the *dancing*, Orz think you will make good *special sauce*. Maybe even for other Orz *party*." It would seem this is likely to be something sinister. The Orz apparently wish those who take part in *parties* to enjoy the *sauce*, as in the above quote, or in their parting words from random encounters: "Do not forget to *enjoy the sauce*."

Loved Empire. Shogun was meh; but Rome 2 looks like a return to form. This is gonna chew up some serious game time!

I can be a sucker for CEs and that's easily the best one I've seen.

Can't really be bothered for some reason. Must be getting old.
The top three games I was keen for this year were Rome 2, GTA V & europa IV.

Do not buy at the moment,the game is a complete shambles.CA have alot of work to do.

Id say wait 6 months after a deluge of patches have been released.

I can't say I've encountered too many problems. There's a few bugs, the biggest one being diplomatic options disappearing. I've seen a few AI issues, but mostly on the campaign map. One province declared war on me while I was off at war against another province. It then raised more troops than it could handle and starved itself into oblivion, without actually attacking me.

This is as fucked up as the Simcity 5 launch!

If they're not gonna test this shit before selling it, just call it an alpha and stop the marketing propaganda. So disillusioned with supposed AAA game releases right now.....

Wow. Just wow. It took an Australian to take this elephant down


Sane Critique, Why Rome 2 Failed
Bad Game Takedowns are what Australian accents were made for. That and criminals

I honestly didnt mean to. I was watching the excellent YouTube videos about Ancient Rome and the Punic Wars


Extra History 01 - The Punic Wars
They are supported by Creative Assembly and one of the related videos was this one so I decided to watch it. I mean, they helped support this amazing history series so the game cant be that bad, can it?


Oh yes. Yes it can be that bad. So horrible. So very horrible.
