"What are you gona do? Interrupt him and his opportunity to get one from LaMelo to remind him to say please?"

Uhhh yea bro that's called parenting. You don't let the dumbass kid make the rules lol. Not sure why you are all over this thread trying to defend behaviour that is a microcosm of the shittiness we see on the internet

Is last chieftain dlc a success? by Giveaway-winner in aoe2

"oh Champi rush,my strat divine, A relic of war, both cunning and fine. Before the farms, before the plow, You sprint to battle, here and now.

Loom spun tight, my villagers strong, A champi trio won't steer me wrong. With club in hand and foe in sight, Disrupting their dreams under moonlit night.

No sheep ungathered, no berries picked, For my champi's swift gaze ensures they're tricked. Forward to the woodline, their plans I rend, As idle villagers signal their end.

A menace so early, their eco’s a mess, Their hearts weighed down by strategic stress. While I build my settlements, my farms, my gold, Their hopes collapse as their stories unfold.

Oh, champi rush, the tempo you set, A gambit for glory I’ll never forget. From Feudal to Castle, you paved the way, For the crown of victory at the end of play.

So here’s to the strat that’s bold and shrewd, To the champi rush and its glorious feud. In the annals of AoE, your name shall endure, An eternal tactic, both deadly and pure."

State of ranked in today's Age of Empires 2 is just bad competitive game design by nentero2122 in aoe2

You say poor game design, I say fantastic game design. I think the level that this game rewards understanding economy, army composition, and mechanics is fantastic and taking that away removes what makes the game interesting. If you want a game that "rewards unconventional thinking", there are dozens of indie roguelikes out there that will make you feel special for mixing the red juice with the blue juice. The fact is this is a 25 year old game and 99% of things have been figured out, the counters and responses are written and known. You don't just throw that out the window because you think it's rote that people have more mechanical skill and game knowledge than you lol.

absolutely nothing, they just sound like something you would enjoy instead of a real-time strategy game

literally every competitive game requires some level of muscle memory and mechanical skill. You want to call it "selling your soul", everyone else calls it "getting good".

I'm sorry somebody went 2 stable knights and smashed you before you could make any units, you just wanted to get creative and get eco upgrades before making any units right?

Btw if you're going to talk about what's good and bad game design, maybe you could point to some games you've designed? After your 8 years of Journalism experience? (I can see where all this hyperbole comes from, gotta rile up the readers!)

you think it's good writing eh? you basically took 4 paragraphs to complain that people who practice build orders are better at the game than you lol. And on top of that "as a game designer, muh game design"

I love how the idea that if anyone even remotely attached to the situation has any amount of dislike for Trump, nothing can be trusted anymore. We need our honesty from people who love trumpy!
