This expansion to AOE:3 was the icing on the cake. If your into these types of games, this is the best choice. No other manufacturer has made a better real time game than Age of Empires.
This game is better than words can describe. I wasn't nearly as fond of the War Cheifs Expansion as I am with Asian Dynasties.I haven't even started playing the storyline yet. The depth great, the gameplay is great. I just cant express how great this game is. I have been playing the skirmishes on hard, "free for all" mode, up to level 64 city. Too much fun.
Mircosoft Has Out Done Them Selfs Again, I Own Every Age of Empire Game Made By Them And Each One Is Different. And It Also Gives Some History About What It Was Like In Each Era In Time. And If They Continue To Make More Age of Empire Games I Will Keep On Buying Them. I Would Recommend TheWhole Age of Empire Series.
Yet both those minor details can be easily overlooked if not for the lack of creativity in their generation. Now, I'm not speaking for everyone, but I personally think an RTS should offer exciting and creative campaign play as well as free-flowing sandbox (that is, custom map) games as well.Being a long fan of the Starcraft/Warcraft duo, my expectations are probably a bit spoiled. This is not too different from the original AoE3, which dissapointed me in the same exact way. Resources and topography are completely symmetrical, and made even on both sides. ;) Nevertheless, the campaigns in AoE are marvellous and extremely entertaining.The same can't be said, however, for the custom games, which lack depth. I find even the largest maps incredibly small, and am not a fan of the circular frame they try to take on. This conveys to the player that they are strictly made for RAW play, and lack all efforts of creativity or poetic value to the game outside of the single-player campaign.However, if the campaigns are the only thing AoE wished to make their games winners, you can say they've managed. For me, however, the game is a little too restricted toward free play.
I think Microsoft has consistently maintained a high quality series.I think it is the best AI game on the market today.I am very pleased.Asian Dynasty is the icing on the cake.I just love it.
