Put the Golden Standards for its genre. Also one of the first very globally accepted games out there. Because so many language options and cultures to represent it. It was huge. And technically very well aged.

Go ahead, find another game from the 90s that still has such a large following. I'm waiting. ...that's all you need to know.

One of the golden standards of RTS games. It's mechanically extremely demanding though, and takes a good hundred hours of tryharding in multiplayer before you start to "get" why it's so good.

I can tell it's really cool but I bounced off it hard.

I have very fond memories of this game -- I'm almost afraid to play it again.

A solid improvement over the first entry and the one that made this franchise really take off. It looks nicer, the control scheme is slightly less archaic, and this expansion of the last game's tech tree was popular enough that it feels like it's been copied to death. Still, rock-paper-scissors strategy with frantic clicking has never been my thing.

I'm not a huge fan of real-time strategy games, but this was one of the better ones. The units and factions were unique enough to make for some great replay value. My buddy was one of the top 20 players in the world, so maybe that has affected my ranking, but this baby is certainly a classic.

I don't have the nostalgic attachment to go back and play it like some but it was groundbreaking for RTS.

Generally not a fan of RTS, but this one of only two that I ever really got into. Unlike most RTS's it places much more emphas on the "Strategy" and much less on the "Real-Time" and in many ways has a lot more elements of 4X games than something like Starcraft, which is I guess why I liked it.

[PC] Fun back in the day, but severely limited by today's standards.

Immortal game. I'm too shit to play it myself, but I love spectating games. 8-player games with skilled players turn into epic slugfests without comparison - Check out AoE2 caster t90official's youtube channel to see what I'm talking about.
