RaphaniacZX původně napsal:AOE4 is way better than Age of Kings was 1997Sure, -2yo AoK can't compare with any game that actually exists. We're only 3 days in, so you can calm your doom horses down. You're all really pent up on this idea the pros have to choose one game and can't play both and you know, have fun with the games. Hell AOE3 proofs that too even if people like to mock it.Īlso, any game's popularity will slowly decline after release and the initial hype, so did AOE2: HD albeit very steadily and so will do DE even if AOE4 did not exist. If the core base gameplay is solid, fun and the civilizations are engaging (which for the record they are more fun than AOE2s) then the game will thrive for the longer run. AOE2 is living proof of that with the amount of things that were horribly wrong about it like being able to properly play multiplayer games to begin until 13 or so years later when an official answer came out not called Voobly, which I would argue is far more important than somebody being unhappy with not being able to select cyan at this time that they can fix let's say 2 months from now.

fixed colours, restrictive pop caps etc.Ī game's success or longevity is not decided by the amount of quirks or "unacceptable" things should fix. Sure, you might say they'll fix it later down the road but there are already people leaving due to avoidable issues which have been mentioned times and times again during the betas like the Zoom level. The reasons the pros are mostly playing AOE4 is because of the Genesis tournament, but I seriously doubt it will overtake AOE2 in terms of popularity with all the issues it has. All repeating the same points that AOE4 is basically a AOE2 3D rehash with some AOE3 elements mixed in with way less content, a loveless UI, controversial graphics to say the least and a prohibitive prize tag for the content it offers. Just look at the score it has currently and the amount of units sold. As for when to get AOE4 if it looks exciting grab game pass and try it, and if not wait at least for a Black Friday/Holiday sale.Īfter the initial hype, it will fall down in popularity. RaphaniacZX původně napsal:AOE4 in the long run, and the reasoning for that is simple, you're comparing a remaster of a remaster with about 7 expansions and x amount of quality of life changes over 20 years to a game that came out like 3 days ago as of this comment.ĪOE4 is way better than Age of Kings was 1997 and will only keep getting better, also for the record if you're sickened by the idea that the pros who have been playing these games non stop finally are playing a refreshing experience after 16 years without a new AOE title (if you count AOE3), all I have to say is cope and seethe n00bs.ĪOE2:DE is not going anywhere and it's as fun as ever to play with friends, but excuse the people having fun because a new game came out instead of recycled success.
