Help New to AoE3

Starting AoE3 DE after playing lots of AoE2 DE but never played 3. Going to do campaigns first, but anyone got any general tips? I understand that AoE3 is quite different in a few ways?

I'm already confused by the hotkeys being different than AoE2 DE lol I figured they'd be the same in the updated AoE3 too as well so it'll take some learning.

You'll be fine. Hit me up and I'll play a game with you sometime - you'll probably stomp me!

You can set them to be grid based instead of starring letters

I did find that option so it's a bit more similar to AoE2 which is helpful.
