Played and followed the AoE scene many times: 2002-2004, 2013-2014, and now playing again on AOE 2: DE. The new training scenarios in DE are quite helpful and I'd recommend them to new or returning players.
DE has led to a massive resurgence of interest and a 3rd generation of players. First gen was AoE2 (CD), 2nd gen was the forgotten empires continuing things, 3rd is DE. Some players have spanned all 3. My current favorite streamers are Viper and Hera.
- aerovistae 6y agoOh yeah the twitch scene has really made a massive difference to this generation and to the modern-day level of interest. Viper's stream was what got me into competitive play.
- thisisnico 6y agoAoE2:DE Player here as well. It's a fantastic game and I love the current community.
- peterburkimsher 6y agoDo real-world maps work with DE? I had fun making a map of Taiwan, with actual locations of gold, stone, fish, wild animals, etc. https://github.com/peterolson/AOE2-Real-Map-Creator https://github.com/peterolson/AOE2-Real-Map-Creator
- spurgu 6y agoIs DE (or AoE in general) available on Mac and/or Linux?
