Although aoe2 is overall a better game, way more polished and competitively viable, this will always be my favourite as I started with it when I was little. Nice gameplay!
@@paulheinrichdietrich9518 You asked this a year ago, but don't worry, I'm here to finally answer your question. I'm no AoE pro, but I have been playing 1 and 2 a lot again recently (both original and DE). Ultimately there's been a bigger variety of strategies in AoE2 and more polish\quality of life. AoE2 prolly got a lot more attention overall bc 200 max population, the pathing is\was way less janky and busted than the pathing in 1, it also gives you more unit control with formations, new order types, and stances\ aggression control. The units are a lot more varied and there's a lot more counters. You have to use stone more wisely in 2 than 1. I think ancient-times aoe1 is a much more interesting setting than medieval-era aoe2 though. Most top-tier AoE 1 units have way more drip than the AoE2 counterparts. I wish 1 would have gotten the same love & attention 2 did, but given how they initially designed it, it seems hard to improve on without destroying what makes AoE 1, AoE 1. And those 1 quirks were prolly really hard to stomach for the people who started on 2.
I always played 2 vs 4 AI, great fun and what a melee. Generally my ally either was eliminated or turned against me because of the 'friendly fire' glitch in this. I call it a glitch because it was annoying as hell, one little arrow or nick and now they are your enemy entirely.
@@crazycat7855 i watch vietnamese streamers , i noticed how crazy a particulary one famous player is , i watched vods and this is starcraft like skill level!
Yes. Especially around 3:10, when it has 29 food and a bunch of unites around a dead elephant next to its base. I mean, why not let a villager return with one piece of meat instead of doing that clicking thing. This is not how a good player should do.
You are 30 minutes into the game and you haven't been attack. When I play, I am attacked between the first 5 and 10 minutes, more so if it's against several civilizations.
i don't quite get how red is only in tool age when you should be his only enemy and at the 30 min mark, you never attacked him... wth was red doing the whole time....

If I play at the hardest difficulty I get assaulted after 8 minutes by 5 or 6 axe men.. by that time I am still doing the first age transition.. It's nearly impossible to win
Exactly. I don't think this game version is the same as mine. Mine is much more difficult that this. Some say ai would attack sooner on a smaller map. Maybe that's one of the reasons, because I always play against 1 hardest on a medium map.
Depend on what you're asking, if you mean why you can't train multiple troops then yes. Regarding population cap if you launch in multiplayer you can exceed the 50 cap
He's playing in a VM by the looks. You probably don't need a virtual machine to play it though. Especially with AOE:DE being released a couple years back.
@@touchingisjustthefirststep Compatibility. The '98 game doesn't run on some windows 10 machines without a Virtual Machine. A Virtual Machine emulates a different OS.
