Rise of Nations is more like a sequel to AoK than AoE 3 was, it's not as good as either of the first two but it's decent and definitely feels more like an Age of Empires game than the third one...

I'm not expecting too much from a new Age of Empires game, my hopes for a new traditional-style rts game rests on Cossacks 3 at the moment.

My biggest problem with Rise of the Nations was that it had a faster pace than AoE, and it also made it a bit more difficult.

But I agree that it was better than Mythology and 3.

My biggest problem was the damn attrition, where your units constantly took damage whilst in enemy borders. I think it's the Russians in that game that had a big bonus to it, was ridiculous how much damage it dealt, really hated that feature.
