They’re also adding a free historical mode as well to appease the historical fans. Just a single dlc based on mythological elements that a large portion of the fan base asked for.

Trust me, you won’t be left out of future content. I get it, you hate truth behind the myth approach, but the constant effort to disfranchise people that liked the original from future content is really sad. I know it's shocking for some, but people liked the original game mode, but their voices were drown in the sea of tears from pure history or pure fantasy fanclubs, because the game was not what the 'purists' imagined. I'm also not asking for new free content, but for a new content in DLC for all modes. So not sure how such statements are relevant. I also have the feeling that people who critized 'truth behind the myth' did not buy the game as well, just talked about it imensively when it was released to give it negative rep. Not saying you personally apply to this critique but this mode was heavily criticized by most of the historical fans and mythology fans because it really doesn’t do a good job of depicting either side (I highly doubt that there were 12 ft tall men wearing pigmy elephant skull helmets in the Trojan war with 20x the health and strength of a normal human, so it’s not grounded in reality at all).

Side note: I sort of feel like a lot of the people who claim to love the “truth behind the myth” mode are just the people who got it for free and now just want as much additional content as possible for their free version of the game. Most people who like the “truth behind the myth approach” and don’t want the mythical elements likely wouldn’t want completely made up poison wielding Hydra cultists in the TbM mode anyways because it is just a made up mythical unit being put into the supposedly “realistically grounded” mode of the base game. They were made up by CA to accompany the monsters you hunt in the dlc. I’m saying they don’t show up anywhere in the Iliad or other classic source material about Troy. Who knows what was in the lost fragments. It's a set of completely made up stories written in span of 700 years by Greek and later Roman authors, most of it it's actually lost and only fragments remain. What do you mean by historical? TROY is a STORY! there is nothing historical about it.

They were made up from scratch by CA for the Mythos dlc. They don’t exist in actual literature of the time and thus have no “truth behind the myth” equivalent. These “Hydra cultists” with poison were made up specifically to serve as units to go with the mythological monster. Hydra cultists can be just master poisoners etc.īut they have no historical cal basis. Who knows about the customes of Hades cultists. Why ghost? Many cultures paint bones / use white color to makethemself look like dead/ghost to scare their opponents. 2K A Total War Saga: Thrones of Britannia.846 A Total War Saga: Fall of the Samurai.
