Rise of Nations v. Civ 3

[Spec]

After playin Starcraft, no fast clicking games seems fun to me anymore. Strarcraft is still my favorite.

Meaning that I will Play Civ3 before I'd play RoN.

EE takes the cake over RoN. but you can't compare real-time strategy to turn-based. That being said, Civ3 is my favorite

Guess my sentiments are pretty clear.

RONs pretty cool... but then so is Civ3

RoN is quite a decent game. Though I can barely maintain interest in it for long. Its been months since I last played it, and I don't really see myself getting back into it any time soon. Maybe much later. I doubt I'll ever be permanently bored of it.

Civ III on the other hand, despite all its faults is a game I always come back to. I can be bored of it for a few months, but I always come back to it. Whether or not that means I'll one day be permanently bored of it, I can't really say, but the amount of time it takes for my boredom of Civ III to fizzle out is shorter than my boredom of RoN.


As for comparing the two, that would be unfair, seeing as how despite the similarities, they are completely different games. I'd rather compare RoN to Age of Mythology (in which case, AoM wins), and Civ III to SMAC (in which case, SMAC wins purely out of its depth and personality, both of which are lacking in Civ III).
