I truly am my father’s daughter as I found myself building civilizations until the wee hours of the morning with Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition. I would play that until 4AM and your mom would get mad about it.” Funnily enough, I told my father about this review and he responded with an almost nostalgic look in his eye, “Oh man, that was my favorite game. Yet, above everything, Age of Empires was the one game we played the most.
We had everything on our Macintosh PC from Starcraft to Command and Conquer. Growing up with a history buff and military officer father meant that I was usually exposed to RTS from a young age. I didn’t realize it back then that it would grow to be one of the most highly-regarded RTS titles of its time - I was just more concerned with watching my father play out all of his strategic fantasies. Age of Empires is one such title that has made its mark in gaming history as a major title of the RTS genre. While RTS does have an extensive history, there are some titles that helped define the genre into what it is today. Back in the 1990s, Real-Time Strategy (RTS) was still a developing genre that had gained foothold in the early 1980s.
