It's all so very interesting for a history nerd like me, and I've learned something. Sometimes you'll see other live-action shots representing significant elements of the period of your current campaign. The start and end of missions will give you shots of real-world locations with representations of the forces you're about to control or fight. The campaigns here are both lengthy and meaty but also interesting, informative, and very well done.

Part of this links to the idea of a documentary. Much like binge-watching an excellent series, or fascinating documentary on Netflix, there's something in Age of Empires IV that keeps my eyes glued to the screen. It's also addictive enough that I've had a few days of looking up from my monitor to realise that I've been at the computer for far too many hours, and I'm starting to look malnourished, or I'm looking up to realise that it's almost morning. Fortunately, this is a game that is great in many ways. Even if that were the case, it's coming to Game Pass, so it's not like you'd be losing out. Is it because the game isn't as good as I'd hoped? Am I just playing for time before I let it drop that Age of Empires IV is just not that good of a game? Nah. You may wonder why I've talked so much about the studios, not about the game.

It also allows World's Edge, the future AoE/Strategy studio, to work with and learn from one of the best in the industry. It also lends a pedigree to Age of Empires IV, one that - despite the aforementioned remasters - could have been lost due to time, the demise of Ensemble Studios, and the damage titles like Age of Empires Online and Age of Empires: Castle Siege caused to the franchise. The simple reality is that no developer, except for Creative Assembly and Eugen Systems, comes close to Relic in making real-time strategy games of consistently high quality. After a string of top-notch remasters, all eyes are now on Age of Empires IV.ДЄge of Empires IV Introduces Min-Spec Mode for Low-Spec GamersД«ringing in Relic Entertainment was a brilliant move by Microsoft.

Recent titles ( Gears Tactics, Microsoft Flight Simulator), and traditional Xbox console exclusives coming to PC, indicate that the company knows the PC is a significant market. I would have said to you that Age of Empires is dead, Microsoft killed it and that Microsoft should piss off out of the games industry because they are ruining everything they touch. If you had come to me seven years ago and told me that Age of Empires would be a thing again, I would have called you a fool. Developer Relic Entertainment, World's Edge
