Also, even though they said that each goblin was unique, I couldn't tell any of them apart except for maybe clothing colors.
There might be hundreds of goblins
around you, but what counts to your hardware is the humbers in your viewing area. Everything outside of your viewing area is simply code that your PC does not have to render until is comes into your view. Also the draw distance in Total War games is about 15-20 times that of that test, at least. Look at the background of the test. Were there any moving set pieces? Anything else to help gum up the works?
I don't think thats a valid comparison.
