In fact, Age of Mythology is much more polished and gripping than any of their previous efforts.īut like I said, they didn't change too much of the series' core principles. And while Age of Mythology isn't a big enough departure to qualify them as a two-trick pony, the refinement and sophistication of the title should put to rest any fears that they've strayed too far from their established models.
But until now, Ensemble's been a one-trick pony. Their Age of Empires 3 series has long been one of my favorites, not just in the RTS genre, but for gaming in general.
