"Age of Empires: Rome Resurrection" is a real-time strategy game launched by Microsoft in 1998. It has now been 20 years old. It may not be too much to call it the big brother of real-time strategy games!
Speaking of Age of Empires, perhaps more people know "Age of Empires 2 &; Century of Kings"! However, the launch of Rome Resurrection was an important milestone for Microsoft in the field of game software at that time. The game was highly entertaining, the numerous arms, weapons, and human technologies that simulated various historical eras were dazzling, even if it cannot be said to be epoch-making. product, but it can also be said that it occupies an important position!
There are five eras of nomadism, stone tools, tools, bronze, and iron. You can get new technologies every time you upgrade one generation. This setting can be said to be the core setting of the game. Together with multiple countries, multiple arms, and multiple maps, the classic game "Rome Resurrection" is formed!
As a descendant of Yan and Huang, which country is your first choice? Of course it's "business"! It has unparalleled development advantages in the early stage. It can enter the Bronze Age as quickly as possible and send out troops to conquer. It is the best nation in the early stage of the revival of Rome! When you equip a team of chariot shooters, the enemy has just entered the Bronze Age. Think about that feeling, awesome~
In the later stages of the game, the Iron Age, the setting of ruins is quite interesting. The ruins may be different in each country, but their function is the same! If the victory condition is conquest, the ruins will just be a magnificent building; if the victory condition is standard, as long as your ruins survive 2000 years, you will win directly! This taunting building is a direct display of national power!
There are many types of arms in "Rome Revival", so I won't go into details here. For the same military unit, the combat effectiveness of each country is different. Coupled with the bonus of technology, the strength of the same military unit is very obvious. Of course, in addition to these, don’t forget the artifact that couldn’t beat computers back then! Pacifier killer, black/white rocket sports car, repeating crossbow with super long-range attack, and even a cheat device that can control animal attacks. I wonder if you still remember it?
Today, with the frequent iterations of various types of games, both picture quality and content are much better than the games of 20 years ago. But I still like the old games from the past. When I have free time, I can turn on the human and computer and play a few games. Wouldn’t it be wonderful? Sometimes I think about it, is this game really that fun? Do I miss this game or my youth at that time?
Finally, I would like to pay high respect to those masters who still stick to this game!
