hi all,
i just bought AOE-III recently.
Before this i was playin Rise of Nations, but i must say, AOE-II- The Conquerors was the best among all these.
The AOE-III didn't appear much user friendly to me.
Anyone tried?

Actually, I've owned AOE-III for months... but I haven't even installed it because I'm so attached to AOE-II, and I'm afraid it might ruin my appetite.

I also am fond of the earlier versions; specially AOE-The Conquerors.
Its pace of play was very nicely balanced.
Later versions in this series like Age of Mythology and then Rise of Nations never looked that much balanced to me. And now this AOE-III; i tried to play it, but yeah, lost appetite just after my first bite
Still waiting for someone who played it well enough to suggest whether its worth time wasting on or not.
