Yeah I agree. Age of Empires is one of my favourite gaming franchises, but I've never really been able to get into RTS games outside of it, although I've tried. I had a bit of fun with Warcraft 3, but it never really clicked with me properly, and others I've tried I didn't really even enjoy.

Well that's not quite true. I also loved Battle for Middle Earth 2. But I've never played it online at all, and obviously it's completely unavailable in any legal form today, so it's hard to really count it.

But still yeah, absolutely love the Age games. The DEs have been handled so brilliantly, and I am enormously excited for Age of Mythology: Retold, since AoM was my favourite part of the franchise.
