We know Creative Assembly will release the Total War: Warhammer III equivalent of Mortal Empires for those who want the traditional style. I imagine that there will be three players invigorated by this impetus for every player that may feel rushed. It genuinely adds a new layer to the series. Is it necessarily a bad thing? I'm not entirely sure. Total War: Warhammer III could feel rushed for those who enjoy the slower pace and the grander strategy of a traditional Total War. More have recently brought a story-elements, but choices rarely felt as critical as here. Of course, you can also use one or two of these to build up the home front, hoping that you can catch up later on, but that isn't always guaranteed. You feel like you should be acting you definitely should be. There is a level of impetus put on these moments. From what are essentially lulls to moments of increasingly fervent action as sides compete for a specific goal. While it doesn't suit my style, I can't deny that it does reflect the changing nature of war. That other factions were gathering souls like they were ready for a trip to Lordran didn't suit my style so much. The giant wall, the turtling, spice road, and more all suit my slower pace style. My main game was with the Grand Cathay, much like my preview. You still have your usual Total War grand strategy in between these roarings, but maybe due to the map's layout, which is vast, you can feel a little hemmed in depending on your faction. Collect all four, fight Be'lakor for control of Ursun and do what you want with him, should you succeed. The roar creates rifts you pop in and fight for a soul or a chaos god.

As you progress through the regular campaign, Ursun - the bear god - will roar out in agony. The race you had in the previous Warhammer title feels almost amplified here, as you race against all other factions to capture souls from the four Chaos gods. I would argue that the only one more focused is the Alexander campaign from Rome. I would argue that Total War: Warhammer III has the most directed campaign of any Total War game to date.
