The RTS genre will never be mainstream unless you change it until it's 'no longer the kind of RTS that I want to play,' says Crate Entertainment CEO (www.pcgamer.com)

I didn't realize that it sold so well! That's good to hear it is successful. I'm not over the moon with the game, but I did get 30 hours or so out of it, and don't think it's bad at all. My biggest annoyance was that it felt too similar to AOE 2, which I saw as the superior game at launch. Still, that's a bit of bias from an old gamer, lol. I think it's fun!

The game had a really rough launch, I'm not surprised you got that impression if you played it back then.

I'd give it another shot, everything from gameplay to graphics has been overhauled since.
