The editors didn't like
AI cannot seem to handle the new systems within the game
Diplomacy is still a little stupid and is particularly worse in the case of the Yellow Turbans where you can only open ties with fellow Turbans (which technically you're the leader of)
The nature of the narrative can often pigeon-hole you into military conflicts
Tutorial feels like an overwhelming crash course in the game's systems
Lots of units
But many are fairly similar
Diplomacy can be a tiny bit overwhelming at times
Real-time battle AI still needs improvement
High PC hardware requirements
AI is still a little stupid and easy to manage
Particularly in diplomacy
The espionage system isn't very well explained in at least how to get it started
Slight technical issues in prolonged game sessions
Amount of aspects to manage can be too much for some

Abstract: It all began when Mao Ting died, and bequeathed to me all his lands as he had no heirs. He also bequeathed to me a border with Cao Cao, the brightest strategic mind in Ancient China. I was playing as Liu Bei, Ancient China's nicest totalitarian warlord. M...
Improvements to the Total War formula, Campaign mode builds a compelling and individual story, Graphical performance has improved,
Lack of unit variety,
Reviewed on PCTotal War: There Kingdoms is more than just a good Total War game. It's variety in play, riveting campaign mode and improved performance move it up to one of the best games in the RTS genre. It takes almost no steps back from other games i...
Great setting, Transparent progression system, Fantastical elements add a lot to the campaign
Historical "Records" mode feels half-baked, It's just not as varied as the fantasy games, Battles all feel samey
For Total War fans, there's lots here to enjoy. It's the best historical Total War game since Shogun 2, and one of the finest this series has seen thus far. However, for those drawn in by the bombast and spectacle of Total War: Warhammer, this game can fe...
Abstract: Let me just say this: I am an absolute sucker for a big idea. A grand philosophy, or some big unifying theory of everything, that seeps under the skin and wraps around the bones of a game to tie it all together. Everything refers back to something else an...
Changes on the battlefield don't make for a Total War experience to match historical and Warhammer entrants, but there's still a deeply involving strategic layer in Three Kingdoms that sits well with its licence...
Abstract: This latest continent-sized strategy game from UK studio The Creative Assembly blends the hard graft of empire management with some pleasantly raucous personality politics. Taking its inspiration from Luo Guanzhong's historical novel The Romance of the Th...

Abstract: With this in mind, we've compiled a rundown of the most exciting games that are set to launch in the next twelve months. This is a PC only list, so if it's not coming out on the old Big Rectangle, you definitely won't see it on this list. We've also focus...

Abstract: It’s 2019! The year of Blade Runner, The Running Man, and other running-related dystopias. Here at bit-tech, though, we don’t like to talk about running, unless it refers to running the latest games...
Abstract: Total War: Three Kingdoms is the latest instalment in Creative Assembly's epic turn-based series of strategy games. It's also the first major return to a historic setting since Total War Attila released in 2015 (if you exclude the light dose of Thrones of...

Total War: Three Kingdoms should serve as the example for all games of its breed going forward. The campaign design is brilliant, full of character, and tells a cohesive, historical-feeling story with satisfying act breaks and unexpected turns of fortune...
