With the Way CA operates these days, let me lay out a little of what you should expect with Rome 2.
Rock Paper Scissors mechanics.
Unit Progression without side grades.
Lorica Segmenta wearing holywood Romans.
DLC up the arse. (Though they might go the path of having 90% of the units as DLC instead of Shoguns 90% of the factions being DLC)
Shallow, Rushed campaign mode. (Seriously Shogun 2 was horrible about this, you can't just sit down and take a break to prepare your faction for the next war, nope it has this way of trying to push you to be fighting and expanding constantly, I hated it so much)
Oh and the worse of it all.
Little if any ability to actually mod anything (In fact I think they said this in one of the articles already)
Oh sure you'll see the balance mods and maybe slight graphics changes but you will never see the amazing mods that made RTW an amazing game.
I bought Shogun 2 awhile back for like five bucks ages ago and still think I was ripped off and secured me in my position of not giving CA another cent, I will definitely not buy this game.
