On the other hand, they didn't have Fallout New Vegas and had to contend with the REAL Caesar's legions, so I say we still win.

Julius Cæsar lived during the Iron Age.

Both sound pretty metal.

Fun fact: Julius Caesar wasn't the only Caesar by a long shot.

Additional fun fact: It was super late here when my brain farted that out 😄

But they also don't have starfield

Eh, Starfield isn't actually that bad. It isn't very good either, though, just mediocre.

Which would have been totally fine for an indie or a niche game from a major developer.

5 or 6/10 is worth playing for sure. It's just not worth paying AAA money or "this is going to be the best thing ever" style hype..
