Players no longer have to reseed their farms as villagers tend them, and villagers rarely get in each other’s way, often just walking right through one another, which makes them far less of a chore to manage. Many of the little issues that used to be part of the chaotic city-management of AoE 2 are gone from the newer game. This simplification extends to more than just the combat. While this was an upgrade archers could eventually get in AoE 2, most small skirmishes in the older game involved moving units to dodge arrows, something that AoE 4 totally eliminates. For instance, archers in Age of Empires 4 always hit their targets. This basic premise is ripped right out of Age of Empires 2 (and real life, technically), but the combat, like most things, is a little simpler in AoE 4.

Building up your cities and their technology is important, but the bread and butter of Age of Empires has always been the armies and combat. ![]() Players can also advance the technology of their cities and armies by constructing special landmarks that move them into a new historical age, with four total to advance through. ![]() To build their cities and armies, players have to gather resources, construct buildings, and create each individual fighting unit, all while trying to counter their enemies’ soldiers. The game’s main attraction is its competitive mode, which includes duels, team games, or free-for-all warfare with other civilizations, all of which can be played offline against AI or online with other players. They all start off with a town center and six villagers (up from the three in Age of Empires 2), with the goal of building a thriving city, complete with its own economy, and of course, its own army. Each civilization comes with its own special bonuses and a few unique buildings and units for players to construct. Age of Empires 3 transitioned the series into the Colonial age, but AoE 4 returns to medieval times - just like the second game. In AoE 4, players select a civilization to play from the eight in the game. If you want curated lists of our favorite media, check out What to Play and What to Watch.

I literally cant even sign into my account to access offline content, its ALL GONE thanks to an Abusive system MS lets auto-handle, the first miss steps of "AI". Boycott Xbox, they don't deserve your money with their "woke" parenting of even the lamest of things like GAME REVIEWS. ![]() ![]() So the suspension is complete BS, groups of circle jerks can get together and report something you typed as offensive and it auto-bans you and some lame gamer on a power-trip volunteering for their "ambassador" program (more circle jerks with fragile egos) reviews the ban and appeal. Also I would've never said anything that warrants this kind of permament suspension, at worst I was talking crap on EAs Sims 4 predatory gaming practices of cutting a main game up and selling it to you in 20-$40 "game & expansion packs". The multi-billion dollar business has no obligation to provide valid evidence for something so permanent as a PERMAMENT SUSPENSION FROM ACCESSING ANY OF YOUR PAID FOR CONTENT ON THEIR SYSTEM?!?! The thing is.you CANT leave any real hateful comments and cuss words in reviews or XBOX doesn't even even save them, just blanks it out like you didn't type anything at all.
