REVIEW SUMMARY:

Gameplay: 7/10
(Basically a less vibrant Warhammer 2 experience with more map-types)

Graphics: 3/10
(Everything looks grainy on ultra settings, but can be "helped" with FXAA settings)

Performance: 1/10
(The game will crash, bugs will happen and everything looks ugly on ultra with bad fps on top of that)

Story: 5/10
(It´s not that interresting, but its not bad either)

REASONING:

The really bad:
- Abysmal graphics and performance. It´s just sloppy work, to not have polished the game before release. Graphics at ultra
high settings looks grainy and blurry, at high settings it looks like Medieval 2 total war on low settings.
- Unit rosters have too few unit options to make it interresting. Slanesh is a good example of a really boring unit roster.
There are 2 or 3 interresting units in the whole roster, whereas Warhammer 1 had like 7 interresting units in the dwarves
roster etc.
- New menu setup for no reason what so ever. It´s not as good as Warhammer 2 and its confusing.
- Bugs everywhere, units will get stuck, performance drops will happen for no appearent reason.
- The game will and can crash on you

The good:
- More interresting battle maps with bridges, camps and better sieges. Everything else gameplay-wise is the same as
Warhammer 2, which is also kind of a good thing.

How to salvage the game if you can´t refund it:
- To lower performance issues, force launch the game with directX 11, by writing "-force - dx11" in the steam options
- Use FXAA settings for anti-aliasing, FAA will make everything blurry.
- For now nation choices that are interresting is probably only the Ogres, Kislev and Grand Cathay, every other nation lacks
interresting unit choices.
- RIP

My plans concerning the games future:
I refunded the game, I could not stand it. Even after learning how i could fix it, it just seemed much less sandbox-like and much less polished and interresting than Warhammer 2. If the game gets anywhere near as good as Warhammer 2 in the future, with more interresting unit types for Chaos and performance improvements, including sharper graphics. I will rebuy the game and have fun. Right now though, it´s not worth neither my money nor my time, i´m seriously dissapointed and if this trend continues i won´t buy any new SEGA games. We gotta vote with our money, and when companies think they can just release unifinished games like that, they need to be taught that this is a bad idea. I´d recommend refunding if you have allready bought it. Don´t play it if you have it, but don´t like it. It will teach SEGA that players are unhappy, as playtime drops.
