It wasn't stated before if he would or wouldn't be playable, butwe pretty much have confirmation now. Dong Zhuo trailer


EDIT: From the video description

Dong Zhuo will appear as playable once you defeat his army in battle or reach the rank of Emperor in a campaign.

Looks like it's an old-style TW unlock.

Ok cool. I was worried they were going to try and sell Dong "So bad that his grave spit him out" Zhuo and Lu "LU BU" Bu as DLC

[umiman]

I just preordered, because I'm a slut for Total War.

Also Fanatical was selling it at 18% off. Surprisingly it came with a key for it already, so it's already registered to my Steam account.

Honestly? I can't remember at this moment what it was that gave me that impression before but from the look of other things that they're bringing back for this game, I feel like this game dev team is being headed by somebody or bodies who're fans of older TW games, and I like that.

[Tack]

Oldschool unlocks? That's amazing.

[Teneb]

Seems to be just the one, but yeah.

Going by the vids shown so far the tactical AI seems worse then before, and there's now a delay to May 23rd.

Total War: Three Kingdoms is out now and opinions seem to be overall very positive. It seems the launch of Three Kingdoms has been a lot smoother than some of the Total War games in the past and people are enjoying the game.

Myself, I'm still riding the Warhammer train here so I haven't put as much attention on Three Kingdoms nor have I bought it. I do like the visuals for Three Kingdoms, apparently there's different lighting between Romance and Records mode with Romance looking more bright and colourful and Records being duller and slightly saturated.

About the only major thing I've seen people mention is the southern part of the map being a bit empty of factions which I suppose is something that'll fill up with DLC.

[Zangi]

RotK usually is fairly empty in the South, where Shi Xie and his family rapidly expands unmolested since his only neighbor is Sun Jian who is busy with Liu Biao or something, depending on scenario.

Nanman to the southwest and more outlaws probably.

Game is so damn good.

[ZebioLizard2]

I am genuinely so glad that the delay worked out in the games favor.

How much time willl turns take to load without SSD and with 4 GB of memory? Somewhat interested in trying this thing out.

I’m finding the UI to be equal parts gorgeous and a little difficult to navigate. My first city managed to fill up entirely with agricultural buildings which give awesome bonuses to recruitment... except then I have no slots for conscription buildings.

Turn times are too fast. I don't have time to do chores any more. It's mostly because they're so few factions.
