Remember how we used to select our tribe based on the strategy and build order we were going for? Remember when we were studying all the tech trees to optimize everything we did for maximum efficiency and win rate? When we were playing the game purely in a competitive sense, forgetting all about the flavor, the details, the beauty, setting off the music? Yeah. Me neither. EDIT: I actually really like competitive games and AoE, but I miss the times of pure bliss. Playing against the CPU or my Cousin and just making the unit that looked the coolest and drinking in everything the game had to offer...
There is some magic in exploring and uncovering a black map in the stone age and going for a hunt. Killing the first Elephant and not knowing what an RTS is or what "gaming" is when you just want to play.
1995, first game I ever played in my life was the original AoE. Born in 91, 25 years later I'm still an avid gamer. Greatest gift my dad gave me was my love for video games, I'm eternally grateful for it.
Maaan same, my dad gived me hobby which he didnt understood. i started playing Age of Empires when i was 7 year old in 2011, because i found collector's edition on attic... I was really curious because i never played any strategy game before, but that game made me understand what i really like to play. and to this day i have the exact same disk running in my computer, still working fine
I remember the time when at the pace of this beautiful song, Roman army marched to the battlefields. Pax Romana was called, a fancy name for what is our daily life. Love this song! The one I remember the most from AoE1
I bought the Age of Empires Gold cd and eventually abandoned it. I only kept this original track from the CD: AoE1_Polyester Jammy.mp3 is the original title. A legend of nostalgia for the Ancient Age second to none.
reveal map, E=MC2, photonman, upsideflintmobile, big bertha, dark rain, dark rider, medusa, king arthur, I think we covered almost all of them haha Yes it was a great game! Top in my history class because of this haha
you're 7-8...it's Friday...you just finished school...come back home...play with dad some kickball...mom makes you a sandwhich...boot up AoE 1 on windows 98...listen to this song as you build your armies to conquer...life is good
It was different in india. After school had some fish curry and rice. Asked dad for some time on computer. Played extra time. On a condition that I will study later 😃
I have the colectors edition. Ah, very good memories. I played this game when i was 5! Once the pc upgraded to The top of the civilization in just 5 min!!!!!!!!!! Lol. Ah good memories.
Really good memories coming back, this was THE best strategy game for it's time, I have enjoyed playing it very, VERY much. I even palyed it less than a year ago with some friends, LAN, very cool.
I remember that playing this song, I had lost a game against the CPU in maximum difficulty of 25 hours in total. Many weeks of effort were wasted... like when the music "haggstrom" is played in Minecraft and a horde of furious endermas kills you, sometimes the music doesn't hit the mark at the moment because it's random lol
How the music is played depends on your sound card and/or your CD. When I was a kid I was enchanted by how, even with the same CD, the music was "sampled" differently when the game was installed on different computers, back when sound card quality varied wildly and the industry standard was lower than it is today. The version of the soundtrack played here is the highest quality MIDI version. Also, game would use the lower quality MIDI if you did not put your CD in the computer to play.
@pinchediablazo What you don't know is that those ones who downvoted the other AoE themes are now as villagers carving for gold, wood, food and stone C:
Guys, Guys .... Have you ever tried this? : 8 player game, you with cpu's on hardest free for all match... pick the smallest map you can find (like a 1 v1 map ) Type the following cheats in order: Steroids Stormbilly (5x) Pow (3x) photon man Big momma Witness the most ridiculous chaotic onslaugth ... people screaming & dying, lasers, rockets, shotguns, robots, toddlers, cars, space marine .... yup you got it all to make it even worse try it with 7 cpu's AGAINST you! You're welcome Also works just fine in the definitive edition :)
I dont know who was the guy who put a dislike on this video but he did not had a happy childhood like us
He became drunk of all the nostalgia vibes flowing trough his body and missed the right button.
+Universum94 lmao!
nuno francisco amen
never had sex
dont start a fight becouse he disliked
Reminds me of my 8 year old self getting settlers to pick berries from bushes and exploring the map with my fishing boats
*Old man voice*
Back in my day you were awesome if you could survive against Egypt
this song makes me wish i could relax on the fishing boat in the stone age and just chill on the waves
Young Savage what a great thought! 😍
Got eaten by megalodon hehe
Hune-neihh!
You can do that! Follow your dreams. Remember one word: Zihuatanejo
@@AstonishingSodApe Good one
The sound of the waves at 0:13, and the pause that follows make it soo magical. It makes me feel like I've just embarked on a journey by sea.
I always found it sounds so refreshing
The break made thw transition to the flute?! Even nicer

I am legit the most casual AOE type of player. I play it to win, but I play it because it's just such a nostalgic game.
Truly, well put;
Too sweet.
The innate transcendence in what you speak of; for whom one may realize...?

I felt at peace when listening to this

1997-1998
My first was Civil War Generals and Oregon Trail.
But I got AoE like 1-2 years later in 1999.
Que nostalgiaaa
Well guys, after all this nostalgia wave, better go to bed... And remind of all good time I once lived
The age of empire saga has some imperfections, but her ost has always been perfect
nothing is perfect but aoe is one of the best if not the best strategy game ever made (talking generally, aoe2 is better than aoe).
I actually do prefer AOE1 to the 2nd game. I like the setting and the music more....
But as you say, generally...AOE2 is better with many improvements
ahh.. memories!!
I remember the time when at the pace of this beautiful song, Roman army marched to the battlefields. Pax Romana was called, a fancy name for what is our daily life. Love this song! The one I remember the most from AoE1
This game taught me a new language, a new history, a new passion, and a bit of strategy
This music perfectly sounds what Age Of Empires is to me.
It's Legendary...
I bought the Age of Empires Gold cd and eventually abandoned it. I only kept this original track from the CD: AoE1_Polyester Jammy.mp3 is the original title. A legend of nostalgia for the Ancient Age second to none.

I totally had Age 1 on a hard drive in high school and it was so much fun and so memorable! This soundtrack brings it back for me
Altough the defenitive edition comes with arranges of this songs, we will never forget (and stop listening) to the old ones, they are just classic.
Just been through most of the AoE 1 and Gold Edition songs on here looking for THIS song because it was randomly in my head. SHH. HO!
This is so strong... Especially the guitar chords and the upcoming flute in the beginning...
Been looking for this for ageeeees!!
Thanks for that man.
Nostalgia confirmed! Those golden memories! :-D
ahh so man good childhood memories :( shivers my spine almost brings me to tears :/
This is the one, boys!
Brings back memories of my teenage years playing this and other old games
One of my all time fave songs from this game!! :D Geez it brings back memories of growing up with good ol PC games!
great sound. 90s rules!
2018
still want to play this game...
sad and beautiful at the same time. i love it.
I very love this one... It make me dream and a little bit swing in same time...
Love
Most peaceful ballad of the game.
Whenever I Alt+Tab out of the game and back in I hear a piano remix of this.
reveal map, E=MC2, photonman, upsideflintmobile, big bertha, dark rain, dark rider, medusa, king arthur, I think we covered almost all of them haha Yes it was a great game! Top in my history class because of this haha
This is the best song ever.
I remember this song whenever I play RHCP´s Californication on guitar in that part when it goes Am-Em
Oh so this is the song that has stuck in my head for years.
this is the first strategy game i play in windows 98 when i'm still..primary school..
brings back some memories. I killed some summers playing this. Anyone ever played the WAA maps on multiplayer? Those were the days.
Epic Music..
This was my childhood :'( why cant they make games like this anymore.
Jaroslav Verner greed
The remaster version is out! It’s call Age of Empires: Definitive Edition and It’s same as the first one (as far as I know) just with better graphicks
I've enojoyed playing this game so much, this takes me back...:-)
Poor my life... But its all done... I will never regret... My life is like a sad music
you're 7-8...it's Friday...you just finished school...come back home...play with dad some kickball...mom makes you a sandwhich...boot up AoE 1 on windows 98...listen to this song as you build your armies to conquer...life is good
It was different in india. After school had some fish curry and rice. Asked dad for some time on computer. Played extra time. On a condition that I will study later 😃
Few game soundtracks give me the feels like the AoE1 soundtrack. (':
I have the colectors edition. Ah, very good memories. I played this game when i was 5! Once the pc upgraded to The top of the civilization in just 5 min!!!!!!!!!! Lol. Ah good memories.
Really good memories coming back, this was THE best strategy game for it's time, I have enjoyed playing it very, VERY much. I even palyed it less than a year ago with some friends, LAN, very cool.
This is one of my favorite tracks. I just lurv it.
good old times mate...
Wololo
Love this song :)
That's Polyester Jammy
epic song
great :D
Best strategy game of all time
This is the theme that comes to mind when I think of AoE1.
I remember that playing this song, I had lost a game against the CPU in maximum difficulty of 25 hours in total. Many weeks of effort were wasted... like when the music "haggstrom" is played in Minecraft and a horde of furious endermas kills you, sometimes the music doesn't hit the mark at the moment because it's random lol
вся музыка из империи ШЕДЕВР
my first strategy game ever
This song starts playing just when things get settled and starts stable farming .
Oh the memories ...
How the music is played depends on your sound card and/or your CD.

Thing song reminds me so much of runescape. I honestly feel like I heard this in Runescape even
souvenirs souvenirs !
my childhood ...
lol I had a hard time trying to type those cheats when I couldn't even read or speak english :)
@rallyausofficial i thought e=mc2 made a photon man, that was always one of my favourites:)
@Condom007of007Solace possibly because the in game music was midi rendered on the fly?
nice
⭐️
The riff sounds like "if I were a blackbird" song by Silly Wizard
I click a trieme when the ocean sound is apparent
took me hours to find this song
it's midi so it depends on the software that's playing it
I always think this sounds like we are the champions
@Condom007of007Solace - Haha true! This sounds much more high quality than ingame! Anyway, it's beautiful music :)
Master Piece
isnt this the noobiesong from runescape?
Reddit Spy LOOOL, it kinda reminds
nostaljiiiiiiii
@pinchediablazo What you don't know is that those ones who downvoted the other AoE themes are now as villagers carving for gold, wood, food and stone C:
When I played this game I pronounced "scythe" in Scythe Chariots like "skythe."
I have listened to at least 3 different versions of this song. Why isn't just one version? Which is the original?
Nice! Sub goes!
Yes, indeed it is depressive.
Mi favorito
wololo!
YAAAAAARRRRGHHHHH!!!!
MAKES ME CCCCCCRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY TEARSSSS HHHHHHH
