I am pretty much new to the RTS genre (played some CnC back in the day, not much else) but I've been played AOE3 for the past few weeks and have to say I absolutely love it.
Here are my questions:
1)Currently and in the relatively near future, where does this game stand amoung others in the genre? as far as general popularity and the such...
2) what other heavy combat war games are out there right now and worth investing into? what others are coming out in the near future? Dawn of War WA looks good but I don't know if it's too late to get into that franchise...(not 100 percent sure of the lifespan for games in the RTS genre)
3) what of the games we're talking about here will (or does) have the best looking battles and largest "scale" of warfare (explosions, huge armies, etc)...
Thanks again for reading guys, and for any answers. I'm just trying to get a general feel for the market now and in the future...
