So happy that you’re back to aoe4. Aom retold was a refreshing mix up for the moment but it just doesn’t have the competitive edge that aoe4 has. Aom just isn’t balanced and was never meant to be super competitive. That’s coming from someone who used to LIVE on the original aom years back.
Not exactly. You literally get more value when producing army with this landmark. If you slowly build up your army and most of it is from the burgrave you paid less than if you stopped, focused on your eco for a time and the dropped more barracks to get to the same army size. But it can turn easily into one when the enemy has all the counters to the burgrave units, you should go into stable or archer units but you still keep producing from burgrave.
One question Mr. Drongo. Did Valdemar put down the barracks by mistake in the beginning? Still not able to understand that decision. Even if he wanted infantry for rams, the archers could've done that.
I think he was predicting that the ootd player will go stables. Ootd is a civ where you want the hardcounter unit every time. When valdemar got pushed back it was also because he could not handle the crossbows with archers, then switched to horsemen but then had no knights to deal with the MAA.
Even though Order take some good fight, the game really feels one-sided with how big the villager difference is. Hear me out: French is going to be broken in this patch.
This new patch is a dumpster fire. None of these changes make any real sense, and for the 2 or 3 you can try to justify there is 50 more changes that ruin the game. The dev team turns every patch they release into cancer!
Dude what was the OOTD player doing really.. no walls, the farms and undefended villagers in front, not picking up relics while being age III like 5 minutes earlier than valdemar.. and all his attacks.. he didn't kill a single villager.. just pushed a little bit and then retreated again and again. That was a heavily deserved loss.
Agree. There is no way to counter siege + infantry comp. What do you do, kill siege with archers? The cavalry cant get in there when the siege is surrounded by infantry.
The new siege is wild! Springalds not countering siege is bonkers and will take some getting used to
Oh I forgot to comment on the other video, congratulations Drongo for definitely not having a third one on the way.
loving all the aoe 4 content!

7:49 That's a sunk cost fallacy.

@@OptimusCrime4444 Yeah, that's what I meant.
wetlands is savage map, i think it has 6-7 sheep total, of which 2 of them spawn near your TC.
Best defense is an attack in this map.
I don't understand why OOTD didn't pick the relics while the french just reach age III, ?
Was hoping they would do something about men at arms toughness. I feel they are still too chonky and running into them constantly. Great vid!
Yeah, I also wonder how people can amass them so fast early on
How do you counter siege + infantry comp?
Kill siege with archers?
The cavalry cant get in there when the siege is surrounded by infantry.
Seige is weaker to ranged units now, so yeah
Good luck countering mass mangonels with ranged units.. lol
Have you been playing on the new patch? It's easier now than you'd think...

Ootd is very flexible with unit choices. I assume he wanted a potential hard counter if ootd wqnted to raid him back. Also spears are dirt cheap

Did you see that ludacris display last night?
Just liked because it crowd shout out!!
AOE4 is criminally under rated. I don't get the AOE2 players that say AOE4 sucks and that AOE2 has unique civs.
I know! AOE4 its way better... Every civ it's a whole different gameplay...
Such a one sided one :( I hope we get some new civs, this game is feeling a bit less fun lately, at least for me.
them siege is interesting now uhdays
🎉
IT Crowd is the best
Melee units no longer exist in lategames. Congratulations to those involved for ruining this game.

Siege is shit since this patch. They killed the game for me

They really over nerfed it, bombards are a joke now, you can have 100 long bows killing buildings
