The voice acting seems fantastic! I did not realize that it changes when you switch ages. Dark age units are barely comprehensible, while imperial age units speak modern German. What a cool touch!
I would love to see building rotation. Its got no practical purpose of course. But I loved building a normal looking city in my Age2 games but only houses gave any variation to looks. I love that they have roads and fields pop up around your buildings
Would be cool, though it would make the grid system a problem, which might make stuff like putting farms around mills not work quite so well. Not a major concern, but when it's a minor cosmetic or a minor practical benefit, I'd take the practical.
This is the first gameplay video that I have watched for AoE4. I liked how you have played so good so far and calmy in every situation. But I think you have been more informative if you tell us more about units from both sides, formation and etc. For eg. on our 2nd raid you viewer first time encountered those massive walls with scorpions placed n them, caught me by surprise, and wanted to know more about it. Thank you for all your efforts, :)
you can just hold shift, klick like 10 points around the towncenter with your scout ( the dark areas ) and then last klick should be towncenter or near towncenter, so the scout will get all sheeps around and bring them back to town center, so u dont need to payattention and klick 30 times :)

Hi! Great video 👏🏻👏🏻. I have 2 doubts: 1.- when you catch the relic and send the prelate to the church (or the catedral), the prelate must keep inside? So you need to create another one to catch a second reliv? 2- how is the micromanagement for the farms? Right now i take 1 villager to create 1 farm, and then another one, too slow and confuse. Thanks !!
Been binging on Wololo 5 lately, so this came up. Must say, you should use spears/pikes against a civ that spams mounted units so much :P Also, maybe it might be useful to utilize the houses and military buildings as walls not to have so open economy.
they should make AI at normal difficulty micro with limited APM , and hard difficulty micro with unlimited. so the AI can kait you as much as a player would kait.
Great work man, love your videos! As for the game, I'm a bit disappointed, didn't want a remake of aoe 2 but something fresh, with more mechanics and features ..but yeah, we live in the age of "lets profit from older succeses cuz we are unable to do better".
People always complain , if it was too different I bet you would have found something else to complain about. After 1 day , it's literally impossible that you explored it with any meaningful depth. I played all the AOE ever. This is great . It keeps the core value while updating to new technologies.
The fact that the building construction, at least in my game, doesn't have hotkeys is the saddest thing ever. It would be nice to play a 2v2 or 1v1 against you Valkyn :P
Personally I don’t understand any of the gripes people have of the game so far. It looks great! The art style of the game is beautiful. The only thing I would change so far is make the different ships more DIFFERENT looking, and same with some of the units. It’s really hard to tell them apart. Come to think of it that’s a problem with some buildings too. The game looks pretty fun overall though. If I had a good PC I’d be buying it for sure!
@@Joellllllllll True. I thought about an RTS whereas you had to wait for troops to actually eat based on a 24hr clock(accelerated) and deal with anti war groups springing up on your homeland and I thought. Eh $7.95 bin game. Like grandma's stocking stuffers.
@@Joellllllllll Don't forget about long drawn out media footage shot by limping reporters with some head guy telling us it'll all be over next week. Or we could just thank MS for not being too realistic. Could you imagine a VG where your parents got a letter in the mail Everytime you forgot to use a few extra fishing boats. 🤣
So far this looks like a more streamlined experience into the aoe2 meta. less bloat on units and buildings which is nice i suppose. def will be a lot more noob and casual player friendly. as aoe2 is a big complex game, with a lot of unique units and basically the same meta with variation. So perhaps aoe4 is going to finally dethrone aoe2, time will tell. but mechanics wiese its seems to be at least, def more streamlined. which is better imo. i dont play rts because of the cpmplexity and apm. i just dot have it in me, but i do enjoy watching pros play. have learned a lot through their play styles.
Well, since the HRE is German, I suppose it they should sound it! They were only Roman in the sense the first Germanic emperor Charlemagne (a Frank) was crowned by the Roman Church, that's about it! As the saying goes: "...the Holy Roman Empire was not very holy or Roman", it was a Germanic confederation under an elected emperor.
played many rts games, but never any AOF , do not understand this game , what is with those sheeps , how you get them ,what are they for ? I played a game and could not understand how to increase my resources to have more and to advanced , could not even beat a easy ai . Hope they will manage to fix the game and not to be trash.

Finde auch cool das die Deutsch reden in dem Spiel :D
First 5 minutes of every game: "Sheepiez"
Must say the game looks better than the initial teasers they've shown
Of course it does. Its called development. 😎
Mechanics looks clean and satisfying. This might be the ideal age of empires.
Gameplay is so suck, to much different then aoe 3, cant belive they waste 15 years to make this shit game.
It looks like a joke, graphics looks like some cartoon

@@Sids1192 Limiting the building rotation to 90 degree increments would be a fair compromise
It's amazing how big difference the voices makes, feels like Company of Heroes 2. Love it! Please fix the town centre though...
What you mean by town centre?
@@Nivarias I assume he means the bell noise
@@HarryLangers The bell wasn't there in the closed beta. It'll likely be changed by launch, given the feedback.
i wish you did not cut siege footage at the end, but thank you for the recording this is great to watch. I am excited for Aoe4!
So far I've been addicted to the technical test. It's a true successor to AoE2.
The age up with buildings from the age of empires 3 dlc is sublime. Love that.

Also why did you skilled footage from 34th minute to 40th minute in the game
that is what I need, a commentary game so I can learn stuff
You should have used trebs, bombards or rams to bring down buildings. mongonels are specialized to counter big groups of units
Rams are way better then I thought they’d be.
Saying hi from Australia keep up your great work 👍💯😀
How are them boats coming? 🤝
does the higher difficulty give the AI resource cheats or does just make the AI more challenging?

I’d love to see units on the walls, archers shooting down, attacking ladders climbing up, you know that kind of stuff
That would be awesome
I still haven't seen anyone utilize the hiding archers in trees as camouflage thing yet. Or any unit formations
Probably only see that in competitive when that starts up.
It's pretty rare. I've seen spirit of the law use formations in a big 4v4 battle. And I watched Aussie dongo hide in the grass a few times.
Literally obsessed with this game
I was worried about this game until I played the stress test, now I’m hyped.
The siege units should come with units... Would look very realistic.

No they drop off the relics, so you can re-use the prelate to grab another relic. And each farm needs 1 villagers to farm it yes.

Thanks for the advice!
You cannot use buildings as walls in AoE4. Every building has a small pathable area around it as part of its footprint.
Graphics look pretty good
It's okay I guess! I like the buildings but animations need work I think!
pretty good? it looks like cartoon, can't believe that aoe3 from 2005 has better graphics
they should make AI at normal difficulty micro with limited APM , and hard difficulty micro with unlimited. so the AI can kait you as much as a player would kait.

The graphics is a big disappointment. Everything is so bland and boring to look at.
@@tonmoyalam83 what are you talking about the ascetics are a huge upgrade. I love the roads, and little side building, fenced in yards.
@@tonmoyalam83 have u seen the graphics of Mobas or other RTS games ? Wtf do u expect ? Ray tracing on age of empires ? GTFOH
TNM suffers from sarcasm identity issues.
I am loving this new series!
Niv what do you think of the game so far?
Don't ask that yet, he's clearly being paid to promote the game, so wait for a later time to get an honest opinion. XD
@@MrKlaus11 Are you sure about that ??
The fact that the building construction, at least in my game, doesn't have hotkeys is the saddest thing ever. It would be nice to play a 2v2 or 1v1 against you Valkyn :P
How can it not have hotkeys? They're implemented by default ;)
I’m definitely going to play this looks pretty good to me

In case you didn't know that is a very real aspect of real war.
@@someguyonhisphone3 Well you can only take realism so far until you don’t have a game anymore.

@@someguyonhisphone3 lol so my point exactly 😅
Wow looks awesome. Any tips on hotkeys for this game?
Amazing
Is it just me or is it actually relatively easy to beat even the "Hardest" A.I. in this game?
I would really like to see more guild 3 gameplay
So far this looks like a more streamlined experience into the aoe2 meta. less bloat on units and buildings which is nice i suppose. def will be a lot more noob and casual player friendly. as aoe2 is a big complex game, with a lot of unique units and basically the same meta with variation.

i think i like this game
Think I'm gonna play HRE exclusively for the voice acting
Did I just saw automatic firing seize weapon😳
Awasome job they remake that arrow before big and now be little
Game looks nice, it looks a lot like Cossacks 3
Is this game worth the money? I played a lot of AOE way back
Ehh just ignore someone that comment you that you can't play this game. You play just like any other aoe2 player out there dude 👍💯
I just wish this game comes for xbox too
weird how cannons in AGE shot waaay better than this new version
I hope the game has alot of ui options, some things are really nice quality of life things, some are kind of annoying.
Can you put units on the large walls?
Yes!
is the cheat how do you turn this on still working 🤔🤔
those DING DINGs ....

Hi brother can you tell me how to download age of empires 4 for pc
*SHEEPIEZ*
all units so expensive you barely make an army of 20 people
How you can play VS bot? I can only in coop
Custom game and choose AI
I really want to see you or the enemy man the wall.
Make the town center bell stop. Please.
but.butt... it is just AOE 3 with aoe 2 civs and graphic pack
sheepees
Really sloppy wall building 🙁
Germanic or romam
The bell sound of the town center is getting too much for me - I hope they remove it... gets really annoying after a while
YA YA!
Romans sounded German lol
Well, since the HRE is German, I suppose it they should sound it! They were only Roman in the sense the first Germanic emperor Charlemagne (a Frank) was crowned by the Roman Church, that's about it!

is it really necessary to have stress test moving around the screen its awful
