Mining. Aliens. Dwarves. Whats not to like. Rock and stone!

Good party game. Just like Mario Party, though a little on the bloody side (careful kids), but plenty of mini games. I kinda wish the boards were more varied in the chest placement, you can almost always tell where it will go. Playing with friends is ideal, the AI does okay, but nothing like playing with real people

Everything in this game tries to kill you, constantly and unceasingly. Punishment simulator, but there are bright spots. I enjoy the exploration and travel and building. I just wish it wasnt such a time sink to breed and tame. And that more dinosaurs fought each other rather than teaming up to kill me.

Also, giant boat killing fish can go to hell.

Popular game, but I hated it. I hated the art style and the game play. Its overly difficult to play with friends. Why cant I just group up with them and we kill monsters, and we are always in a group? We were constantly out of sync and had to wait to join groups. The game is very unintuitive.

I also hated the mix of spoken dialog and subtitles. The game to me has the level of crappy polish that just pulled me out of the game constantly. Maybe a game like this would pass as a great game 20 years ago, but I guess I just expected more, especially from such a popular title.

Great game, still play it many years after I bought it. A ton of replayability and is relentlessly difficult, even on the easier settings.

I just wish there was more type for the exploration aspect of the game, seems there is never enough time to stop and smell the roses.

I still find myself coming back to play this game on occassion, seems to stand the test of time.

Great turned based and real time strategy game. Easily my favorite of the Total War series. Its not without its issues, no game is, but nothing is insurmountable to ruin the game.

Great gameply, great time period, and great battles (naval warfare is awesome). Excellent game.
