One of the largest dissapointments in gaming history
The graphics werent amazing though they were pretty good for the time but the game itself played so fluidly.
Needless to say icouldnt wait for EE2.
I bought the game and started playing and from the word go i was dissapointed.
The music was the first thing i noticed. In comparrison to the catchy and relevant tunes from the 1st one this was just a bunch of random notes chucked together.
The Graphics although supposedly improved were in my opinion not much better if better at all and didnt really suit the game.
Then there was the gameplay. The main selling point of the 1st one.
Rather than a slow paced strategy game where you ad to fight for resources and think about your every move, we had a resource rich enviroment with absolutly no strategy required.
The game was like the toned down arcade version of the 1st and i cant think of a single nice thing to say about it.
To summerise
Bad graphics
Boring sound
You age up too quickly
Resources become pointless very quickly
No strategy
The game is not really much fun at all
