The game was developed for 5 years, it is clear why the publisher rebelled.
The thing is with Rome that it feels like at last moment they cuted stuff quickly and just threw in tons of enemies to stretch the gameplay so it feels like full chapter as others.
Okay, then lets blame them
This fat Rocket Roman is also missing from Rome
No wonder, that he has been removed
By the way, the beta version that I played began with 4 sectors of Rome.
So it seems Rome was planned like a pretty big location
You have a beta version of the game?
I hope its still out there, I wanna play it too and I hope its the beta PC version
