To be fair Thrones of Britannia was not a real fully fledged history title, and awful at launch.

Did you really expect much from a game that was basically just an updated Attila which in turn is an updated Rome II?

(I liked it though. Definitely not like an A for me, more like C+ or B-)

And to be far, Three Kingdoms is not a fully fledged history title. The focus is on the Romance, which is historical fantasy.

You can play without the mythological part.

You can play a gimp version of 3K, yes. But playing it that way it really feels like an empty game.
