I enjoy the game, my only real issues are the grit/afternoon lighting and filter, army limitations making it so I cant have my usual small roving patrols, and the squalor system which I hope to rebalance for myself in a mod in the future. I don't like that every army has to have a general even if it's just a single unit. Some things REALLY should not cause squalor such as the higher tier farms.
Graphics are pretty darn good, I just want to get rid of the gritty filter and the afternoon only lighting. I crave mid-day fights and morning battles.
The maps don't vary all that much in a region but I can deal with that just fine.
The AI for me has been acceptable but they're really annoying and half the time threaten me for money while asking for treaties.
It's pretty darn fun to play other than that. It is a pretty buggy launch for many so unless your PC is a good one it sounds like you'd be better off waiting a month or two for the bugfix patches to roll out.
it actually seems to be the other way around, the people with problems seems to be in the high end with pc's (myself includet), while im seeing people with 2-3+ year old rigs running it fine (fps wise)
from everything i read sofar on the forums, it would seem that the more recent pc you have, the higher risk of it not working
.....which is sad, to say the least
oh and to answer the OP, no, the game in its current state, is not worth getting.
even if you dodge the bullet with fps issues, the game itself is majorly screwede

Not this guy again, we've heard you, go on the total war forums for this nonsense, if the game doesn't work for you it is no reason to constantly bash on it on a forum (this one) that has quite a few people with few problems running it (myself included).
That's my 2 cents

so the game not working, is nonsense?, how interresting, please tell me more
the guy asked a question, and i told him the facts , deal with it
the bashing, as you call it, is completly justifed, and im already on the forums, where my tech support request, got buried under the other million threads crying out for a proper fix on this poorly codet game
i'll keep doing what im doing, so others won't have to waste money on this product
