it is so appreciated that in 2021 you can play a pure RTS like this, with such simple but detailed graphics and with such a dynamic gameplay, it is beautiful, and has such a variety of mechanics that it is great. AOE3 has always been a great game, but this DE is beautiful, i hope they add more content and civs. And i can't wait for AOE4 and AOM DE.

[@availablehage]

Hehehe it's quite graphic intensive actually

When British Empire tried to colonize Ethiopia, their elite longbowmen were soon eliminated by Ethiopian's mighty Gatlin camels.

[@ThomasMeurisse1337]

This game is a pure jewel

[@shubhamnema8281]

This somehow looks better than AoE4, this has this gritty, raw yet beautiful naturally detailed world which AoE is known for and the combat/gameplay. It is only missing a bit volumetric light to it. Best in AoE series

[@NomanJohan]

This was beautiful in it's time.

[@Quinti22]

they mess up the month when they programed the release of the video, didn't they?

[@historybulgaria0]

Can you make about the balkan tsars like add Serbians and Bulgarians.

[@adeerkhan1]

Can you also add Afghans, they defeated British Empire in three Anglo-Afghan Wars.

[@victoro6829]

A DLC from age III has artillery with men carrying it and age IV doesn't.

[@vladimirlagos2688]

Yeah, that is such a bummer. It kills so much of the engagement. I guess they were trying to emulate AoE2 there.

[@emilioglz.carrillodealborn9175]

Please do a new DLC with a long campaign,these historical scenarios were great fun but too short.

[@robertoguevara2635]

It would be nice having European scenarios.

[@maciejpolak2458]

True
I would like more European maps like France or Poland

[@grainassault4844]

Coming in Knights of the Mediterranean!

[@wertaiman4216]

I feel sad that AoE 4 is not gonna have this level of graphics and people carrying siege weapons. That's why i like AoE 3. not as fun as AoE 2 but the immersion is way better.

[@erikfaru9780]

So true! I just dont understand how it is hard to put 2 horses in front of a packed trebuchet. Age 3 handled it and it looked awesome. So why this drastic change? Probably only to make it look "more like Age 2..."

[@MoonManPictures]

Better late than never I guess?

[@illegalsmirf]

Those Africans are truly magical!

[@andersohlsson1565]

Will you add History of the african civs and untis to the copendium? I really like and appreciate the actuall hsitory of the game!
Edit * they have added african historiy to the combendium now!

[@kemor95]

It is incredible how they have made us buy the same game 2 times even 3 with age 2, plus many dlcs and it is even more incredible that I have bought it all hahaha....

[@capscaps04]

I love this game for the diversity specially show around the 16th, 17th, 18th century.
No other game has something like this. But I hate how they add tons of units to some nations by other nations gets only some units. Specially when they don't add units that were world famous back then to a specific nations. Like for example, India was world famous for their rockets back then but you don't see any rocket units on the India nation in the game, but you see a rocket unit representing the rocket technology that the british stole from the Indians back then.
Another example would be in this video, would be the american nation in wich they added gattling guns but they didn't add any of the previous machine guns the americans developed during their civil war, I would have loved to see in the game, likey favourite machine gun they developed back then is this "catridge grinder machine gun" wich was the first they mass producced for the war.

[@Miklosh.Prostoi]

Interesting, Songai, Benin can be in AoE?

[@berkkarsi]

Great civilizations and great content, but please re-record some of the dialogue of units. They sound awful compared to others. I know you probably recorded them in Africa during COVID, so please record them again if you have the chance.

[@ashimrai2537]

In definitive edition they should also add new campaign in story mode such as African war and Napoleon war.

[@BlackMoon-rx8fo]

I wish they would've add stories for each nation

[@Joker-yw9hl]

Please keep making DLC for this game. The Zulu would go down well with the community, and another Indian civ like the Marathas

[@EduardoSanchez-zm3cx]

This is a great Game item good that finally the african civilizations are available but even with this this amazing civilizations there are yo much europeans civilizations and only 2 africana ir would ve good that un the future they aded maybe 2 more african civilizations like the Congo kingdoms ir the zulues and also aded asían civilizations like the koreans ir the persians that would ve more fair

[@mr.p215]

I feel like it's more cause when they made the game originally, the concentrated more on the important global civilisations. Africa wasn't a major player on the world scene at the time.

[@danielmunoz2316]

Will there ever be another African civilization? Or/and full campaign in the near future?

[@vladimirlagos2688]

I think they intentionally gave themselves space for that option in the future. If you look at the two new civs, the native allies, and at the new maps you'll notice that there is nothing from south of the equator. I think there may be a future African expansion if DLC sales and community engagement stays strong.
