It depends on which time period you enjoy the most. Both are good games, but people are right when they say that Rome has more problems then IN. Give Rome a few months and a couple tweaks (and mods) and it will be a great game.

If you want a more polished game then get IN first.

IN without a doubt. It took Paradox about a year and two expansion to make EU3 playable expect the same for Rome.

I thought EU:3 was a great game out the box.

In Nomine is a sublime expansion.

Don't even consider Rome unless you want a meaningless clickfest.

IN, might be the best thing paradox have ever made, at least out of the box (if you can call an expansion out of the box, but then again, it feels like an entirely new game)

Dagda said:
Which EU3 was out of the box

I have to disagree with you there Dag.

Whilst EU3 OtB had it's problems, Rome seems to be only half a game. And what game there is, is marred by endless micromanagement, which may appeal to the twitch monkeys, but it ruins the immersion for me.

is there a faq or feature's list for in nomine? hell, is there a forum specifically for in nomine where i can get a clear idea of what's actually included in the game? because i don't want to clog up the rome board with questions about something else...
