I love the look of them and the concept but the execution leaves me absolutely stumped once things get hectic. I love turn based stuff so I guess it's having the time to think that's the big difference but even in the early days I found them fun at start and then gradually build to just a messy feeling.
I do plan to give total warhammer a try at some point, love GW stuff, but I've a feeling it will get kicked to the curb after a few battles.

Put people on a map with the aim of shooting each other and I will be bored by it very quickly. Seeing as half the planet seems to quite like those games, this really limits my online MP options. You can't easily dip into them either. It's all or nothing. That they're mostly FPS doesn't help. But it's something to do with the format itself. I couldn't get on with Gears either. Or Splatoon.

I think the single player in no.2 (and DLC) is up there with Nintendo's most enjoyable solo 3D experiences, it's absolutely brilliant, but the meat and potatoes is supposedly the multiplayer...which I don't fancy at all. I love the game, but painting parts of the stage to win by percentage isn't for me. I have tried it, I just don't like it.
