Super excited about this game. It looks beautiful. Naval battles are back. It takes part at the beginning of the Peloponnesian War. You're a Lacedemonian mercenary, who can fight for various city-states in massive city on city battles. Drops October 5.

I still haven't yet played Origins (which I want to do).  I guess it'll be on sale soon.

all the games are identical, they stopped pretending to progress the storyline and just lay over additional settings and times on the same game.

But it's pretty, and kind of grind fun.

This is a good game.  

I'm not minmaxing armor and weapons, which is probably making things more difficult.  I tend to just go with what I think looks the coolest at the moment.  Spears are the shit, although there don't seem to be shields (for the player), which is kind of a bummer.

Can I just pick up this game and go, or is some backstory knowledge required or beneficial?  I played the first 2 a long time ago in my younger years, but pretty much quit gaming when I had kids.  Now I've been playing more single player games.  I've given up on online gaming because I suck and don't have the time or energy to get better.

You can. The only one of these I really played before this one was Origins, which is actually set in a later time period. There's some sort of modern day storyline that goes along with it, so there might be more background there that tires in with the other games, but TBH I was finding that part to be annoying filler keeping me away from the good parts and wasn't paying much attention to it.
