    Extremely underrated video! I also started playing AoM again about a week ago, after not playing for ~10 years. I've always loved it, my only complain would be that the difficulity jump from easy mode to moderate is a bit extreme, but other than that, the game aged well. Keep up the great work 🍻

      Just to clarify for you, this is not the remake (aka Retold, using the upgraded BANG! Engine that AOE3 DE used, for context BANG! is the engine AOM was built on).
      This is the Extended Edition which added modern system capabilities new lighting and a few other improvements like improved texture compression (so more in line with AOE2HD).
      Retold is the remake (kind of) in the same way that the Definitive Edition games are.

    My issues with modern RTS titles is that they build them as sweaty competitive nerd dungeons with balance and "e-sports readiness" as a priority and only then smash together a skin to cover their generic rts title. Best way to describe it is that the older games had a feel. when you played age of mythology or age of empires everything from the visuals, gameplay, audio screamed those games You had no doubts. And most importantly, they forget to make it fun. If i want hollow you win screens ill go play starcraft im here for real gameplay where you have an enjoyable time win OR lose.
    Its so sad how most games nowadays are geared to make you feel accomplished by winning rather than giving you an enjoyable experience especially in the RTS genre. Its pathetic if the only sense of pride and achievement you get in the day is from beating a stranger in a video game and its the only reason you played that game. No wonder the market for singleplayer games is dead. People forgot why we play games in the first place.

    I returned a couple of months ago, been playing AOE2 DE for a couple of years. But once I saw there's the "auto queue" button I lost interest. I want to play competitive and that kinda kills competition for me. I watched quite a few matches and they all end up becoming unit spam fests.

      Thats why macro is what wins games not micro and there are people in top 1000 ranked that have less than 200 apms
      Its not all micro, but i can see how that can repel some people and you might skip these games
      Thats why i like aom
      Its perfect middle
      Yes there is autoque, but pop limit is so much smaller that its nkt really unit spam game, rather than keeping your stack healthy and alive while also raiding, all the time
      Not sure if you played wh40k original dow
      But there you could autoque units ON UNITS through reinforcements, it didnt make game less skill expressionate, it made it more aggressive where the skirmishes would start very early and would never really stop
      It was attrition
      Aoe games are more similar to that than to sc/wc games in that regard
