I know, but if you want durability, you dont use shiny stuff like marble.
The Arabian Peninsula could be interesting, that's the only reason why I might buy it. I find Europe boring during that period. And what a logic you have: why should I then buy EU4 and play as a non Muslim country as an example?
Why would Christians buy a game about non Christians and play as pagans? (which is what the Greeks and Romans were in their glory days).
It's fiction, escapism. A game. It is no challenge to one's faith what so ever.
I can guarantee you that my disinterest for the antiquity has nothing to do with my religious belief. Yes, at the end it is a game.
That's fine, I was simply replying to your statement
which implies your disinterest IS based on your religion.

Pops and Characters - looking interesting
I finally bought the V2 expansions on Friday hoping for V3 soon - but this has made me happy - going to have dig all my old history books out of my parents loft !!!
Suggest trying Vic 2's Pop Demand mod too.
maybe you should just be more freindly thowards cultures like me and enjoy games instead of restricting yourself on 1 only .
dont be like my freind who have refused to play ck2 just because of the word "crusader" in it .
and just to remember you rome had north a north african and arabic emperors as well and LOT of berbers and many arabs have served rome .
its not just our cultures we mediteraneans from both shores but its your culture and heritage as well ( in case you are from arabia ) .
You don't want to understand it. It is nothing cultural (religious), do I have to love the history of every period in every place? No. Period. What is the problem with that? I don't care if Rome had Arab emperors. You think it is because I have no connection to the Romans, that's why I don't like Rome, you think too complicated, the reasons are very banal. Classical antiquity is boring in my opinion, the time before (Iron Age, Bronze Age, Chalcolithic, Neolithic and even the Paleolithic human history) is interesting and the time after the antiquity is interesting.
Btw. you said you know me. How come? You know nothing about me.

Marcus Julius Philippus, known by his nickname, "Philip the Arab", Roman Emperor for about five years in the third Century. He was born in Arabia Petrea. It was during his reign that Rome celebrated the thousandth year since it's (mythical) founding.
Ok you don't like the game....don't buy it and focus on something else? No need to poison the mood for us that are excited about this.
Have they clarified whether you are going to be leading a people, as in EU/Vicky/HoI or a familial clan, as in CK?
If you are just the eternal Imperator leading your people, it will take a lot of the fun out of internal power struggles and alliances that were just as common as battles between states.
Example: Marius vs Sulla -- who was the "rebel faction" when both were elected consuls?
It could be just as much fun (if not more) to plot a Junii-led rebellion against Julius Caesar for control of Rome, than to play as Caesar managing rebellious factions.
Similarly, the Triumvirate periods will be less fun if you are somehow above and apart from the actual characters, trying to prevent a civil war, rather than as one of the Triumviri, trying to maintain an alliance with or plotting to overthrow the other two.

I agree. A family clique would be more fitting (and only logical) for tribalistic states too.
by saying i know you i meant its because i follow your same religion firstly but also because i know that a lot of peoples dont even care about the preislamic history of their countrys nor about rome or antiquity because they dont feel connected to it because simply 90% of arabs and even some berbers believe that they are descendent of the prophet so pagan history of north africa or arabia or egypte or mesopotamia belong to other races not to the arabic one . ( i am against this idea )
also i told you all this because it sounded wrong and it will just make peoples to think that we dont care about anything else none muslim or preislamic , you already got like 40 dislike so far because of that .
i might be wrong about you because you might simply dont care about about rome ? maybe i just mistaken you with the history lovers who love islamic history but when it comes to the pre islmaic arabia or north africa they just assume it was nothing but a place full with pagans and with nothing that might interest us .
sorry anyway . i was just annoyed for a bit .
