That was probably nothing ... Part 2

Who I like Empire - had pre-ordered Total War and then in anticipation of the delivery man has hastened to meet to be disappointed just to übelst, for Shogun 2 will also be a real cause for celebration.

So much only time off the front, but the beginning.

Shogun 2 - Total War is a strategy game that takes place in medieval Japan. In good combination one must thereby make his units and other strategic decisions around instance, while one may himself coma decode the battles in real time.
Unlike previous titles in the Total War series (Empire, Medieval 2, Rome, etc) there are again some new features (apart from the venue).
Particularly noteworthy is the introduction of strategic resources such as is particularly good horses predestine besimmte provinces for a certain development.
Furthermore, we usually can not build any buildings, but choose from a specific range of buildings in the cities.
Unlike Empire there is not only a skill tree, but you must first his generals, spies etc convey himself and specialize.

So far so good, that would be all I would have a lot of fun to the game rating given and no longer to get him a 5 points well away from the computer. Unfortunately, it is not the ...

As already indicated has Shogun 2 as Empire, again a lot of quirks on. At least with having come very often crashes to the desktop, or the game gets stuck in the loading screen. Particularly annoying is when the game press again when the "End Turn" button abschmiert because this then the same also is the automatic storage of deleted ...

Edit: this error I was able to fix Fortunately by auspielen new display driver, still very fond crashes Shogun 2 but from if you want to save / quick save.

The load times in the game you can also just as shameless inscribedable (> 1 minute) before a fight and often even 20 seconds later, the charging time before even the intro the game starts, not to mention time.
And all this after the game is already several months on the market and was for Empire Total, which was so buggy that I could not even play it right through to the present day.

Oh yes, as opposed to Empire, which had generally unfinished, there are now again General speeches in Japanese. As the generals also give almost every time the same thing of itself, just click the whole then often quickly on, somehow pointless and no comparison to the wonderful (delicious Politsch incorrect) speeches in Medieval 2. Schade.
The cards on the place the real-time battles, were also further reduced so that the enemies even faster escape and remains less space for ausmanövieren. Slightly annoying, but I could still live with.

The permanent crashes and the long load times nervous, however powerful and completely ruin the game flow.

Conclusion: Medieval 2 also remains the last really good Total War.
