Ok, the statement that graphics don't make any difference whatsoever is going way too far. Say rather, that the level of graphics necessary for quality depends on the genre of a game. For example, Elder Scrolls demands a higher graphical quality than Pokemon. Why? Because the goals and art direction of the two games are totally different and each must have graphics tailored to their purpose. If Skyrim came out with Morrowind graphics, I (along with 99% of all Elder Scroll fans, both old and new) would be furious. And the reason is because the goal of Elder Scrolls has been total immersion since day one and significant graphical improvements from one game to the next has been a major part of their pursuit of that goal since the earliest Elder Scrolls games. Now, I think that this level of graphics is acceptable for the art direction and genre of this game. I actually kinda like it. But to say that graphics mean absolutely nothing is just absurd.

Okay how can an AoE game be awful? Have you played it, cause a game that looks awful can turn out to be very very fun, its what i call the Metal Fatigue complex. You see Metal Fatigue is a game that looked god awful but when i played it it was the most fun i had in a demo. You see they made it look it it was about brothers wanting to kill each other when it was all about the giant robot warfare. :D
