@@megdadmosadag7694 Definitive Edition has improved graphics as well as a few gameplay changes and balances. The biggest difference is that you have even more new civs than what were in HD. Poles and Bohemians are the two recent. So they are not the same.
@@edwardblom2661 Here is how you shoot the deer with tc: You garrison the vills gathering sheep under tc as the scout is doing the final push to get the deer under the tc then you flag the deer and ungarrison tc resulting in a successfull push.

Expectation: I defeat their attacking army and raid their base in retaliation. Reality: I defeat their attacking army only for an another army waiting for me back at their base.
I've watched SO MUCH AoE2 content without actually playing it I feel that when I do buy it and try to play this video will be a frame by frame prediction of my experience...
Its everyone's first time experience man, its part of the fun! Ive been playing for 21 years and i will still make some of these mistakes, and sometimes on purpose:p Dont bother with AOE 1, AOE 2 is really fun and addictive, AOE 3 improves on the graphics, same mechanics, some new features. AOE 4 has online play and more features etc. AOM (age of mythology is fun to go to after playing AOE 2). But the classic is the one in the video, AOE2. Just jump in, or hopefully you already have.
Extra ideas for part 2: Expectation: spears protecting your town from scouts and killing all the scouts. Reality: villagers being exterminated by scouts while spears chase the scouts around. Expectation: three archery ranges on the enemy island. Reality: three archery ranges on the neutral island. Expectation: pikes massacreing cav archers. Reality: cav archers massacreing pikes. Expectation: 20 Onagers destroying their army and base. Reality: like 5 Onagers destroying your own army, each other, and not much of anything else. Expectation: Petards flooding into their base bombing it back to dark age. Reality: Petards streaming at a castle getting annihilated by it. Expectation: Warwolf trebuchets owning everything with highly accurate and devastating fire. Reality: Regular Trebuchet trying to fight a villager and losing. Expectation: Frankish Paladins charging through and annihilating Gbetos and skirms. Reality. Frankish Paladins charging at Gbeto which retreat into a line of pikes.
expectation: Onagers killing the enemy army while their pikes zone off the enemy cavalry reality: onagers 1-shot half of your pikes with their first attack, try to retreat, enemy cavalry overwhelms them, gg.
I think the last one would have been even funnier if just the archers fought the first wave of villagers off and then when the second wave came the Hussars came out of nowhere to cock block them
The castle drop has another realistic outcome though: You place it & they have a mangonel firing at your vills and then it destroys the castle foundation.
Nice. Really related to the one with the double layer foritified walls, just that the reality there is that they have trebs, and I have no army to kill it with...
@@richardjulien1329 Well, at the level where you make double fortified walls, you probably don't realize that siege can be used against units, not just buildings.
@@light_david7 well, to be honest, it took me time to accept this truth... Because, a battle of trebs, except for the britons, it is really annoying... It's like a game of battleship where each player only has one of the smallest vessel... Lot of miss...
Expectation: Imperial age standoff, two different civs clashing their unique units and specialties against each other. Reality: Couldn't defend against feudal age archer push.
@@fgfgfgfgt he's talking about the very first second when he starts building. A nearby mangonel will auto attack the foundation and leave your villager standing beside a pile of rubble like "wtf was I doing, wasn't I here to build something?"
Every unit responding to commands in their own language is the most impressive thing about age of empires. It was a mindblowing suprise for me as a child and not expected at all.
Expectation: I'm gonna build an army so immense, my enemies will shiver. Reality: Why is taking so long time?? Why has it stopped producing units?? Wait enemy... I'M NOT READY!!
The castle was built too close to the base at the 3:13 mark. If he had put the castle just a little further away so that the finished product would be able to just barely reach the farms, he likely would not have received attention from the enemy until it was too late.
If I were to build near the enemy, I'd build towers instead, and maybe some wall for added protection. They're quick and cheap to build, and you'll probably have a couple of them finished when the enemy forces arrive. With those first towers, you have something to damage the enemy and a place to shelter and protect the villagers. Also, when villagers take shelter inside a tower, it increases the number of arrows they fire, further improving the strength to cost ratio.
You should do a death match opening segment. Expectation: opening by building farms and economy Reality: opening by spamming houses and military buildings.
So true. Sabotaging the enemy's economy in the early game is the key to victory. You won't naturally do that if you are just used to the single player story mode gamestyle.

He should have had the scout accidentally kill the deer by the TC after finally getting it there.
Not possible D:

beautiful T90 farms!
I think i did a pretty good job of it :)
I liked to see Fatslob playing Arabia instead of Black Forest
Had the same exact thought hahaha.

That farm placement physically hurt me
The one with the Onagers vs Crossbowmen hurts on a spiritual level.
That’s the same reason I only use Brit archers 11😂😂😂
Yeah, somehow my hotkey never works on this. I press it and they still stay in line ... or start obeying when 3/4 of them are already dead.
that castle drop one was so damn good, even down to the failed wall attempt
Avatar brother
You missed the boar lure...
Expectation: Boar is lured to TC and villager escapes
Reality: Boar is killed by the TC and the vill still died.
Most of these realities were 100% expected and the last one also deserved.
The failed castle drop is too painfully relatable😑

Against trebs, use your own trebs! That's the only good way!

Or in my case, a mangonel that attacks and kills the castle foundation the second it is placed. (Yes that has happened to me, multiple times)
If its just the foundation enemy wont see it or damage it. Only when you start building
@@fgfgfgfgt he's talking about the very first second when he starts building. A nearby mangonel will auto attack the foundation and leave your villager standing beside a pile of rubble like "wtf was I doing, wasn't I here to build something?"
@@ringofasho7721 650 stone lost, so painful
1:47 deer "sike"
scout "wtf"
That Daut castle at the end hurt so much
Same

You just describe my every day games..11
my childhood self felt attacked
Expectation: I'm gonna build an army so immense, my enemies will shiver.
Reality: Why is taking so long time?? Why has it stopped producing units?? Wait enemy... I'M NOT READY!!
That last one was disasters 😂
The castle dis drop one reflects what would happen real life if you tried a stunt like that.
Every one of your defeats was a victory for your foe.
That's a good wisdom.
The castle was built too close to the base at the 3:13 mark. If he had put the castle just a little further away so that the finished product would be able to just barely reach the farms, he likely would not have received attention from the enemy until it was too late.
the castle would be useless, when it's denying only a few farms that can be rebuild elsewhere
Thank you for having a video with the HD Edition version of the game! 😊
ah the t90farm guide was a huge help ty
I laughed about the last one, but the first one was the best. That really hits - the big issue with the very nature of the game.
More! Make more of these!
Those villagers at the end be like, "I don't think you really thought this out!"
Oh bro the bearding the deer one hits hard
Great video!!

I could totally relate on that deer part. Bec it happens to me often
the deer one is so relatable
Omg, made my day 😂😂😂😂
i played years ago when 4v4 michi was a thing had some real fun on that the game that just never gets boring
The music in the background almost reminds me of FF8 when you first meet the Timber rebels haha
FUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCC this is way too accurate!
I can't help but feel personally attacked by this video!
Competitive AOE makes my OCD go fucking insane and fly into a rage
Beautiful. I felt this 1
the deer experience... too real
You should do a death match opening segment.
Expectation: opening by building farms and economy
Reality: opening by spamming houses and military buildings.
Last part was really brutal.
Love it and I love you're not playing de
The farm one had me lol irl
oh god I love that song................................................................
That's hurtly true!
This is so accurate
nice video bro
The failed deer lure hits a little too close to home...
Can you make a scary video that just one minute straight of expired farm noises?
On point.
We need to start a go fund me to get Pixl the definitive edition of aoe2
The last one really hurt...
lol its certainly does take a little while to work out how to do the finer things, Very funny.
So true. Sabotaging the enemy's economy in the early game is the key to victory. You won't naturally do that if you are just used to the single player story mode gamestyle.
2:00 I was expectig a "building kill" with the town center XD
I have a question, how I can pay amount of gold or any ... if ally want me to pay ??? How I can do it . If someone help . Thank you
Last one was perfect.
Meglepődtem a magyar szinkronon :D
3:32 Blue is DauT confirmed
This video is addicting!
T90 would like to disagree.
In my experience, that split formation is best used for cavalry archer. Just counter mangonel with knights. Simple.
Wololo
0:50 when I use onagers against their archers
1:11 when they use onagers against my archers
Right, end the video early because that strategy is actually 100% winrate.
The deer one was the best
That Roland...
Expectation: Ship Armour
Reality: Camel Armour
The accuracy…
J'avais pas penser à faire ça avec le gibier purée....
Streamer friend calls my farms beautiful. As a Magyars player - not just my soldiers, but almost my horses must eat well!
DE fixed that farm one.
whoever owns the copyright to that music must be a gajillionaire now.
Expectation: Pick all 6 relics and get the timer. GG
Reality: There is a seventh and they out-trade my relic advantage
Best video 🤣
It gave me PTSD.
i mean i build a granary close to the deers because chasing them towards the TC seems like a waste of time
I miss the old death sounds. XD
1:40 *Man screams at deer 25 seconds straight for going the wrong way!*
Rip those archers lol
The archer micro speaks to me
And the mangonels goes brrr..
oof that daut castle
I though at episode of mass castles enemy would attack with 15 trebuchets....
Ah the Trebuchet, the single unit that completely nullifies any and all effort into your defenses.
"jó napot"
"Értettem"
"Építkezem"
It was sad to see them all dying afterwards.
