Well, that's true. I remember games in AoK lasting like 2 hours. And it was more unbalanced than AoE III. Ever seen 10 Mamelukes attack a Teutonic Knight at the same time and only take about 25% of its hitpoints? Or a bunch of Huskarls take down a castle?
Of course that... games in AoE III *are* shorter, really. Either you win fast, or die fast. Hmm... It *is* possible to reach a new age in like one minute and a half. :/
And The Titans was great... one of the worse things they did to AoE III was imitate the campaign style of AoM. Not making historical campaigns, that is.
Sheesh... now that I think about it... AoE III isn't *that* great. ¬_¬
There's nowhere I can't reach.
