    I picked up the Definitive Edition of Age of Empires 2 on sale last week after they released a new dlc update. It was still a bit overpriced for a 25 year old game at like $(US)10, but I’ve definitely gotten my money’s worth so far.

    I’m definitely not an RTS gamer and I’m not really interested in the multiplayer but the campaigns have been a lot of fun. I really wasn’t expecting there to hundreds of hours of just campaigns content so it’s been a pleasant surprise.

      The new campaign missions seem a lot longer than what I remembered of the original campaigns. I like that they tutorials now give you some strategy, too.

        I only purchased the base DE so I don’t have access to the DLC campaigns. I figured I’d pick them up down the line if I liked the game. Apparently I picked some harder campaigns first though because I just started with the African ones on the first page.
