Anyone else here getting this game? Realeased on Friday, amazing game from what I've played, improves on 1 and 2 to a huge scale. Beautiful graphics, physics, improved modelling and combat and realism altogether, I think this is going to consume a lot of my online gaming time.

Don't know about what you mean by many hotkeys, but lets just say you can acces almost everything that you don't absolutely need the mouse for(like the move cmd).

As for the other things:
You can clearly see the units almost all the time(its a little hard to see if the stand behind some bushes). And the menus is at very easy to access. The thing I reacted the most to about the menus was that the HUD was very big, but it can be minimized!:D

If it's like AOE1 & 2 in that respect, I'd say yes sazabi. Great thing is it'll focus more on the combat and less on the resource gathering :)
