Total War: Warhammer III a good starting point for a strategy beginner? (kbin.social)

Hey PCGaming folks! I don't know what happened this year, maybe reaching my mid-thirties finally unlocked the "dad game" part of my brain, and I started to all of a sudden get super into tactics games, after only having a passing interest in them my entire life.

Tactics games have been fun, but I want to sort of branch out and play some strategy games. 4X games like Civ have gone right over my head, but a friend said that Total War: Warhammer III would be up my alley.

I have had a look at it, and it does look pretty cool. But is this a good starting place for someone who is completely new to the strategy genre? Outside of the original Red Alert that I played when I was like 8 and just liked watching tanks going BOOM, I am basically a strategy baby and need some guidance!

I agree that total war is very much a complex game, but man XCOM2 is very challenging for a beginner and even moderate strategy gamer.

I think that total war: Rome 2 is a little less complicated that warhammer and easier to digest. Also, a good real time strategy game that is not too feature complex but deep on strategy is the new age of empires
