Being a huge fan of the Settlers series, I downloaded the demo of HOK today... I expected a lot of it but it was a real cold shower to me 
All the things that made the Settlers series special are gone... I found the game mechanics to be a lot like Warcraft 3 and Age of Empires 2 and the payday thing reminded me of Dungeon Keeper. After playing for 20 minutes I gave up because the demo didn't make me want to play it... I'll turn back to Settlers 4 because I want to play a Settlers game, not an Age of Empires rip off
So much for my first impression.
Has anyone else played the demo?
