IMO Warhammer Fantasy >>> Age of Sigmar, so I am glad that Creative Assembly kept at it.
Oh, I absolutely agree that AoS feels mostly like an attempt to re-invent a setting that was considered less popular and failing to do so. It's too bad that the WHF MMO (Age of Reckoning) flopped, because it wasn't half bad. Wasn't EA handling it, though...? Figures, then, I suppose.
My problem is not with WHF, it's with CA's games kind of dropping in quality and/or depth since Shogun 2 (which was my personal favourite in the series along with Rome 1). Sega quality control really showed how incompetent it was when Rome 2 came out as an utter disaster. They've been better than that since then, but I personally bounced off every game of theirs that came out after that. Sega's DLC ethics also leave much to be desired.
