After looking into the game a little more, I ended up d/ling the beta and trying the game out.
It's not bad, though my concerns are mostly the lack of an auction house (which they are working on) and I still want to see how their content purchase packaging turns out.
The game itself though isn't bad at all. It's basically Age of Empires I redone in the Age of Mythology Style (albeit minus mythical creatures and obvious god powers); only this time it's a much more deep game thanks to it being customizable.
I would still like to see them work on the Capital cities some more; such as allowing players to play with the terrain of the map their city is on.
Even so, as long as Gas powered Games doesn't get bored and give up on AoEO like they did with Demigod, There could be promise in this title.
