I think this is a problem with a lot of sequels in general, in that they try to cram in as many new features as possible to the point that it becomes distracting from what made the original game fun. It's so easy to spend all of your gameplay time building up your cities and constructing new buildings, instead of actually conquering your enemies. Examples include bombarding you with notifications at the beginning of each turn that you had to actually dismiss, instead of just showing a "news feed" in the bottom corner that you can look at but don't have to interact with, and the city construction part that just becomes a huge time sink. ![]() In the sequels, they did improve some stuff like the magic system (I barely use magic in #1 because there's seldom enough mana) and making archers much easier to use, but most of the new features were just a distraction from the main gameplay. The first game was focused more on exploration and conquest with relatively minor city construction. I haven't played AoW 2 yet, but from what I gather it's basically identical to AoW:SM. I prefer the simplicity of the first Age of Wonders to, for example, AoW: Shadow Magic. ![]()
