>game from 1999 is still getting regular updates and balance patches and even new expansion packs on a regular basisYou love to see it.This kind of thing needs to happen more often.
>>740329892It's amazing how well the Age Of series is treated given who owns it.
I'd rather it didn't, since dlc and permanent updates often ruin the game and then there's no way to play the original anymore.
>>740329892>game from 1999stop lying
>>740331046It's a remaster, not a new game.
>>740329892>AOE 2Alive and well>AOE 4Alvie and well>AOMRevived, and wellAgebros eating good.
>>740330972>then there's no way to play the original anymore.you can play the original CD versions just fineyou can play HD edition if you don't want the DE patchesamong other things
>>740331305It's not a game from 1999. Do you think Black Mesa is a game from 1998, dumbass?
>>740331046>>740332080>NOOOO IT DOESN'T COUNT AAAAAAAcope, autist
>>740331046>>740332080Dumb nigger, you don't need to shitpost in every single thread.
>>740332197>>740332357Cope. Go ask you dumbass AI even more retarded questions. 1999 lmao.
No more (You)s.
I wish we got Rise Of Nations 2. All 1 really needed was a way to make vassals or friendly AI nations when you got too big.
>>740331046Translatio Ludorii
I'm the only person in the world who likes the 3k expansionBut yes it should've been a chronicles dlc
Fair this thread can die now.
>>740333401it was fun but too easy, the hero units are dumb, and all 3 campaigns ending with the same mission was a cop-out
>>740329892>The regular updates are just adding more and more non-european tribals who couldn't even work metal but are on par with Europeans because magic poison and shiiiet
>>740329892Did they finally add the skeletons back in?
>>740333746>nooooo why is this fantasy videogame not 100% accurate to real life?????????
>>740333693To be fair, Chibi (Red Cliffs) is an extremely iconic battle. The most recent dynasty warriors game also has each kingdoms last mission be at Chibi
>>740330491It's one of those bizarre anomalies nobody can explain. Somehow, AoE and its spinoffs have been blessed.
>>740329892>>game from 1999DE stopped being AoE2 a long time ago. It's just P2W live service dogshit now.
>>740333917it was about HISTORICAL CULTURES clashing with other HISTORICAL CULTURES. Not some primitive mumbo jumbo magic, that was Age of Mythology.
>>740336184>HISTORICAL CULTURES clashing with other HISTORICAL CULTURES.That hasn't changed.
>>740336184Show me which culture in aoe 2 is imaginary
>>740336486you forgot the other part: no magic bullshit and deus ex machina. imagine sitting down to play chainmail tabletop wargame and your friend pulls out the orcs when you wanted to play romans vs aztecs, not D&D.
>>740336794Doesn't happen but keep complaining.
>>740329892the warlock dlc for D2R was pretty good too, if a little overpriced
>>740333917It's not a fantasy video game you inbred fuck.
>>740336702WeiShuWuTupiMapucheThat other SA mudhut tribe I can't even remember the name of
>>740337905All existed in real life. Wu Wei and Shu were the remains of an empire arguably older than Rome.
i hope they buff handcannoneers
>>740331305DE is not AoE2, no matter what you zoomies claim.It's modernslop wearing AoE2's skin.
>>740337905Retard.
>>740329892Because no other RTS even comes close to being as good as AoE2.
>>740329892AoE 2 has been remade twice dude, it's not the same game.
Damn, never knew my childhood was spent in time traveling to 2019.
>>740338174They're made up and date from AoE1 time anyway. They don't belong in 2.
>>740335548>Chibi (Red Cliffs) is an extremely iconic battleit's also basically just the inauguration of the period proper, and the only reason origins ended with it is because they promised to send out a dlc or sequel shortly thereafter.I'm still wondering why the fuck they didn't, the game was actually good.
>>740338174Arguably how? Even if you're geberous and start the count with Qin Shi Huang, that's about the same time as the punic wars.
>>740342769They're not made up.
>>740331339>AOE 4is it?
>>740344248They are completely romanticized. None of them were as they appear in the game. Tupi lived in small tribes with no overarching cohesion. It's nonsense to appeal to third worlders and doesn't belong in the game. Make your own game if you want mudhut tribal RTS.
>>740338189>buff handcannoneerswhy? handcannoneers are fucking awful to deal with when they are in a large group
>>740345437So what you're saying is they weren't made up and existed. Thanks that's all you had to say
>>740329892>game from 1999 is still getting regular updates and balance patches and even new expansion packs on a regular basisIsn't this, I dunno, retarded? Like this is something fomo live service games do, a bad game constantly needs its meta shaken up, a classic has a timeless meta.
>>740340657>remadeRemastered, it still has the same code base.
>>740346019>if you didn't get it perfect on the first try, it's badanimeposter moment
>>740345637i like them and want them to be more viable. also, just make skirms lol
>>740346350There's no such thing as perfect. Timeless classics have a stable meta. If you constantly change that then it's not the same game any more. It's a live service game. Like overwatch or fortnite. You're playing garbage.
>>740336159>pay to win>most of the best civs are part of the base game, with <1% difference between them and the DLC civswhat did anon mean by this
>>740346895He's probably a reddit poster where they're convinced the game is p2w because of the 3k civs
>>740346470but skirmishers are not enough and a smart opponent will sent cavalry to support their hand cannoneers
I dont like the gradual powercreep. Bring everything down to average AoK civs level.
>>740330972it's just auto farm, boomer, it's not that deepand no, the TC not spoiling the boars meet is a good change
>>740329892What if AoE devs and artists are an untouchable elderly elite who, protected by Bill (who probably plays nothing else), do pretty much whatever they want, whenever they want. It’s probably the only corner of paradise that hasn’t been outsourced since the 90s
