I installed Steam and downloaded the game. I clicked play and it took some time to download a few more updates and other files, then I got the following error.
"The program AOEOnline.exe has encountered a serious error and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
This can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in Wine. You may want to check http://codeweavers.com/compatability/ for tips about running this application."
When clicking the "Show Details" button, the following window pops up and nothing happens.
