![]() To establish my bonafides, I got AoE II at the age of 11 two years after it came out, and it was one of the formative games of my childhood (the first game I played online, on a dial-up modem to boot!). (Low-poly, for the original release, sure, though the DE release is a lot better.) Proof that low effort 3D versions aren't automatically better than 2D or old-school graphics.I wouldn't call AoE III low effort. My friends and I usually play versus AI and i have to mute them since they spam the taunts non stop. ![]() I got it as a gift and i feel bad for barely touching it.Īs for the filters, i can't say. Quoting: ElectricPrismBoth AoE 3 and AoE 4 have a review rating of 83-86%.Įdit: to clarify - If swear filters or gore are things a person wants - they should be "opt in" and not "opt out" - Serious Sam 3 is the perfect example of this where they replace all blood sfx with hippie flowers and it's just so much fun - because games are supposed to be games and not real life.Īge of Empires 4 however - i could never get into.

Maybe by the time they make Age of Empires 5 they'll find a way to make it free-to-play and finally get the 3D right. Games of all things should not be influenced by "the church" of modernity (but that's a detail that I could write entire essays about). I really don't understand what is so damn hard - if Age of Empires verbatim copied the 2D sprite style in 3D and the exact mechanics 1:1 their game would score in the 92-98% easy.Īll this "New Crap" just annoys me and other gamers too - like "swear filters" taking the fun out of modern games.

Similar to Civilization V (96%) vs Civilization VI (85%) Article taken from .īoth AoE 3 and AoE 4 have a review rating of 83-86%. Will you be checking it out thanks to this? It has a Platinum rating on ProtonDB and it's Steam Deck Playable. While it's pretty much a glorified demo, it is a good thing to have. So perhaps now with this deal I might dive in a whole lot more. I grew up playing lots the original, and then AoE 2 and never really got to properly try the the third one. ![]() Reworks for Royal Guard and Church technologies.Looks like it has a decent player-base on Steam as well with it regularly seeing between 3-4 thousand people but thanks to this and the latest update, it's rocketed back up to over 12 thousand!

From my own testing, it works great on desktop Linux with Proton too. Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition now has a special free starter edition available on Steam.
