Go for Chrono Trigger first man, it has that classic RPG feel, and it's one of my personal favourites.

Hehe same here! I've been playing AOE since I was nine years-old. Such a good game. I totally agree that the nostalgia associated with the older games.

The newer versions are cool, but limited IMO. I do prefer the ancient style.

Age of Empires was also a big part of my childhood and one of the earliest things my dad and I ever really bonded over. He tried to teach me strategy like having a healthy economy as well as a formidable army, but I was more interested in putting in the cheat that give you the pink lowrider that shot rockets. Regardless of our differences, the game still holds a very special place in my heart.

I definitely agree with the general consensus on AoE3, the move into a more modern setting just didn't work as well, especially when I don't think they did a good enough job focusing on the Roman era in the Rise of Rome expansion.

I've been playing AoE since I was 7... truly an amazing game that I still enjoy playing from time to time.

Almost everyone I know hates AoE3.

I actually still have big lan parties (ha, party) with friends occasionally with AoE and AoE2. Weirdly enough never Age of Mythology although I think that was a great game.

I wish they would come out with a slow RTS like those games again, just so a new generation can get hooked on its complex nature without having to learn at the absurdly fast RTS speeds like starcraft.

fun fact, civilization is not an RTS, it is a turn-based strategy. But they do have similarities.
