- Has anyone ever written a UA-cam description so good that people come back to it? And no I'm not trying to be coy and be like "oh my UA-cam descriptions are so good that people keep coming back to them", I truly am wondering if there is such a comment that people come back to.
And furthermore, what kind of description would that have to be?
I could maybe see it being some sort of incendiary opinion that people would think "DANG THAT'S A HOT TAKE" and come back to... but I think it'd be more likely if the description was an absolute gut-buster in terms of comedy or if it was some sort of profound, sagely wisdom.
Speaking of wisdom, are there any sayings that I like?
Of course! There's a number of them, but this is one of the ones (not the only one mind you) that I really enjoy:
"Holding onto hatred is like drinking a poison and expecting the other person to die."
I never thought I'd relate to a Trebuchet
Ha!
I think we all have days like that sometimes, Arthur. Thanks for watching!
I don't remember which video it was but I'm pretty sure there have been times when I've thought about one of your descriptions and come back to look at it.
Well I'm delighted that my descriptions have been able to give so much entertainment! They really are a lot of fun to write!
My favourite part was hearing Mario's cry of pain.
Also, what tune is that playing?
Oh it's a song from Earthbound - I think it's this one: ua-cam.com/video/URSysTSUU8c/v-deo.html
Mario has some good cries of pain!
He does indeed.
How does this game hold up to AoE2? Is it lacking polish? How many civs are there?
Oof, that's a big question.
I think the TL DR; answer is that while I'm having a lot of fun with this game, I definitely think it could have used more time in the oven.
There are features not present in this game that you would expect with other RTS games (E.G., Hotkey customization) and there's a number of bugs that need to be ironed out. And it's only got 8 civilizations which is far less than what Age of Empires II has.
Now that said, I personally find the core gameplay to be quite a bit of fun and the civilizations are far more varied from each other than they were in Age of Empires II. I think given a little more time and polish this game can be something real special, but as of right now it has it's fair share of issues.
I'd say try this out on gamepass first to see if it tickles your fancy; some people really like Age of Empires IV (like myself) but it's certainly no Age of Empires II - some people prefer the second game over this one which I truly get.
