Definitive edition still alive and well
I still find that game impressive with how straightforward and addictive its' gameplay is. I have a hard time playing other RTS games like C&C, TW or War\Starcraft after it. Guess I'm happy to find my favorite flavour of RTS.
It's like MOO2 in that way, the difinitive 4x space game. I had a bit of fun with Stellaris but most the mechanics feel complex for complex sake, while MOO2 has fewer and simpler mechanics but somehow more depth
Yeah I agree. Age of Empires is one of my favourite gaming franchises, but I've never really been able to get into RTS games outside of it, although I've tried. I had a bit of fun with Warcraft 3, but it never really clicked with me properly, and others I've tried I didn't really even enjoy.
Well that's not quite true. I also loved Battle for Middle Earth 2. But I've never played it online at all, and obviously it's completely unavailable in any legal form today, so it's hard to really count it.
But still yeah, absolutely love the Age games. The DEs have been handled so brilliantly, and I am enormously excited for Age of Mythology: Retold, since AoM was my favourite part of the franchise.
WOLOLOOOO
Wrong game, that's AOE I. (although it is a taunt in AOE II)
I was originally introduced to this at my grandfathers house, and my aunt had a friend make me a cracked version when i was young (my aunt is only 5 years older than me), with the next time I came across it being at a friend's house with the conquerors expansion, it wasn't long before I bought the conquerors expansion edition, oh soo many hours played back then.
The first game I ever beta tested.
How does it make you feel to know that a bunch of the best players (not the top 2, but a few of the top 20 and even more of the rising stars) weren't even born when Age 2 first came out?
I came to terms with getting old a very long time ago. Being able to play games at a high level requires hand to eye coordination and dexterity that sadly degrade as you age. It's not surprising that top players are younger. It's exciting to hear that a younger generation is picking up a game from my early adulthood. What's even more wild are the ones competing in games like Tetris, a game from my childhood.
HOW DO YOU TURN THIS ON
They need to just pick an age and stick with it
Gem, but I like RON more
