I can accept that because games need to be fun and making everything in the game strictly historical accurate do no help to the effort making a game fun. I don't think all historical total war games are all historical accurate. 'The game is not historical accurate' is definitely not the reason for transforming it into a fantasy game. Like I said before, they can help illustrating the cultural features of the age of Mycenae. And all myth units in current 'A Total War Saga: Troy', like harpies, sirens, cyclops and minotaur, are human beings. Too powerful for generals in real ancient Greek, maybe, but they still act as human beings instead of mythical creatures. Their performance in the game are close to what they can do in the battlefield in Iliad where there is no room for monsters. Heros are much stronger than normal units with multiple entities, but they are still human using powerful but not magical abilities. I hope the players who like and support the historical titles can unite together to pay attention to Troy, so that it can make a better and more worthy reference for the future historical titles.Д«ut if you are really going to remake this game as a solid fantasy game, neither historical nor Homeric, then I get nothing to say but feel gravely disappointed. If Troy is 'experimental', then CA is currently trying to introduce the Euhemerism approach to future historical subjects, which means that the current state of development of Troy is likely to influence the development of future historical titles. I believe that this is one of the reasons why Troy is so attractive. However Euhemerism approach can not only cope with this problem, but also enrich the corresponding content, increase the sense of immersion and reduce the difficulty of understanding. So there will be a shortage of information when trying to make them into a game. The current design of Troy is based on 'Euhemerism', after all, for the Trojan War or other long-ago events, historical facts are more in the form of legends and myths passed down. However, how could a ruined game keep its players from leaving?

They may buy it because of their demands for true monster units being fulfilled. I don't think some players have considered the influence of just adding new monsters into current game. True monsters may distort the original designing of the battle, making some original units and playstyle meanlingless, which result in a boring game experience. The game's battle has a self-consistent mechanic with infantries, chariots and cavalries, where flanking tactics and other cold weapon tactics in the Bronze Age plays a great role in it, leaving no space for true monsters such as flying units, giant fierce beasts or magic. The game is not only historical but also based on Homer's Iliad where no monsters appeared in the battlefield, which means that a true monster on the battlefield of the Trojan War would obliterate the epic feeling of this game.ДЄdding monsters to current game present a potential threaten to the original gameplay. A myth unit that consists of human beings can help illustrating the cultural features of the age of Mycenae, but a true monster goes wildly against the 'truth behind the myth' approach( ), and completely destroy the historical aesthetic of this game since there was definitely no even a little possibilty of the exsistance of monsters in real ancient greek. First of all, that would be quite awkward if some myth units are actually human but some not. Some fantasy players who have not play Troy before suggest that adding true monsters into current game would be great. And I don't want to see if one of the modes be nearly ignored just like what happened in TW3K. I think it will be better to create more new content and fix bugs as soon as possible than messing up both modes. As we know that development resources(time, developer and so on) are always limited: new content is important, bugs need to be fixed and stats need to be balanced. I don't think things would be that simple. Some players suggested adding a brand-new mode to this game so that both fans of historical titile and fantasy titles will enjoy the game. CA Sofia, please keep on the 'truth behind the myth' approach. I have see some opinions from fantasy fans about adding true monsters into Troy. 2K A Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia.844 A Total War Saga: Fall of the Samurai.
