Single Player?

[Shovah32]

If you would be playing primarily single player then i would say yes unless you would be using some of the things the ai cant handle(such as various high level magics and strong blesses). Many people at the start struggle with easy/normal and there are 4 difficulty levels above that(aswell as many strong nations and an option to set the ai to aggressive).
This game is worth getting no matter how you play but if your not sure check out the demo.

This game was one of the few that kept my interest past a month. There are so many things to deal with its actually a bit overwhelming to start, a bit of a learning curve. Once the initial confusion passes you'll realize the game is huge, varied and deep.

I've been playing for about 3 months now, and was just starting to get bored with Single player. Joined my first Multiplayer game a few weeks ago and it adds multiple new facets to an already huge game.

Worth the relatively high price, and then some.
