This game, while not nearly as good as the first two out of the box, has had a very active modding community over the years tweaking the game to the point that I am confident in saying that it is as good as the others. All the various mods add features and tweak game balance in different ways so you may need to search for a fit before you enjoy. My only gripe is that are plenty of games here that are cheaper that are good and don't require outside tweaking.
