Yes I had to make the first hint hard because 25 was Medieval Total War. Keeping them close together is a mistake but I like them fairly equally, despite many differences. 2nd hint would be too easy if I mention Rome so eastern nations it was. Unfortunately the other Total War games did not make the cut.

Not a fan of the more recent Total War games then? Any particular reason?

It is mostly a downward trend, but not necessarily dislike them.

Medieval Total War 2- Best of the newer ones, but also the oldest. Loved the expansion with the Teutonic Knights. Not top 50 but a worthy game.

Empire- Complete disaster, too much focus on ships and graphics. Little balancing or ai.

Napoleon- Didn't buy but was pretty low on content with just Napoleon era.

Total War Shogun 2:  Heard was pretty good, but I didn't buy. Lots of DLC problems imo.

Rome Total War 2: I bought at launch, huge mistake. Had a ton of problems at launch and I tried playing it and even then it was boring. As a huge fan of Sparta, I tried hard to like this game and just play as Sparta. But it just wasn't satisfying. Also has DLC problems.

After that I gave up, however I prefer historical so Total Warhammer is meh despite me liking both franchises.  They also do some pretty unique things which I appreciate, but still meh.

As a side note they also made Spartan: Total Warrior for consoles which I enjoyed immensely. It has some warriors esque and God of War feel to it but a very unique game.
