Surely this has happened to you at some point: years have passed, even decades, and suddenly they announce that one of those games you spent many entertaining hours with is coming back, so you put all your hopes to have fun. from now on to reissue it. But as the classic would say, you’re not the same and neither is this video game: Neither time nor circumstances will help you fall in love with age of empires. Or yes?
Age of Empires returns to the future
This is what Microsoft announced to us at the end of last October, when launched a nostalgia operation around some of their RTS (real-time strategy) that became so famous in the 90s of the last century and the first of the 2000s. A moment in the history of PC games when resource management titles, empire building and battles
No one should therefore suspect the launch of and age of empires revamped for mobile phones and tablets because the ideas are clear: we manage (at the beginning) a primitive people with very few resources but as we collect and build, we open wide the doors to the foundation of an entire empire capable of subjugating all peoples who live around us.

on paper Mobile from the age of empires shouldn’t scare anyone because all of its elements seem clear from the outset. More precisely since the arrival of the first in 1997 and until the last just a year ago. So, do we have anything to fear from this new Microsoft game?
¿Age of empires free game 2?
Indeed. The franchise is in place. Its development too, aligned with the classic RTS concept – although we hope that a few little things that have become fashionable in recent years will be added – but, unfortunately, it seems increasingly clear that Microsoft is not going to adopt a traditional marketing strategy, with a single purchase price to have everything in your hands and complete everything by spending hours and hours.
Mobile from the age of empires feels from afar free game 2, a quarter turn that sooner or later forces us to go to the checkout to end up spending several times more than what could have been its purchase price at closing. If those of Redmond choose this path, the desire of users to want to play it as it was done in the past will have been charged, by going map by map within a campaign or, at worst, in an open map where the the only objective was to beat the other peoples. We suspect that there will be items to open phases, limited resources that will push us to the real money store
We are aware that the market has changed and that the free game 2 It’s a fever that has set in but not for that, those of us who have known the origin and evolution of the franchise should stop complaining about this denaturalization suffered by the sagas that have done everything in the world of video games and have ceased to from being video games to becoming services that when they take their servers offline they say goodbye forever.
And if not, let them tell those who suffer in their flesh that Diablo Immortal the Blizzards.
