I tried it but the gameplay still doesn't really appeal to me. It feels way better than BFME1 but that isn't really hard to beat.
I do think the controls are a bit retarted. Half of the command require the right mouse button while the other half require the left mouse button. So far I haven't found a way to change it.
I gave myself a porter from each side so I could build everything in the game (ini coding is present in the demo) but Isengard and Mordor models were all missing (except for the porter, which is the same as Goblins). Elven buildings are all present but all unit models are missing and Treebeard refused to move. In the end it can get quite hard to control an invisible force that you build from invisible building
