What are your unpopular opinions?

[amazing_knight]

This will probably be an unpopular opinion on this Forum.

And before you start responding that you will never get better this way, here's another unpopular opinion:

AoeZone is full of wannabe smartypants who look down on people who're not good at the game.

You won't get higher Elo thinking this way. Kappa

Deathcounter makes a lot of good points and I would respect him if he wasn't an asshole about it

Almost as unpopular as the Realms mod

Why not both?
I know many people who enjoy and finish all campaigns yet spend most of their time playing multiplayer at a decent level.

"Champs shred halbs, knight destroy light cavs, yet archers get countered by skirms seems a bit odd" is a thought just popped into my mind which I believe should be unpopular.

voobly stayed alive for all this years only cause of the ads they pushed and supporters in form of premium members.

DE only makes money when people buy the game from steam or microsoft store which is just one time, they make money to keep supporting the servers by pushing new dlc's and this time they changed the style of pushing 4 civs with every expansion to just 2. and in future they gonna do 1 civ every dlc i guess.

But my fear is would microsoft will back up when creating new civs wouldn't seem feasible. I want to support this game and they can put additional features like fortnite to make money rather than leaving this game altogether like they did to aoc and aoeZone. By support i mostly mean maintaining the servers.

Campaign DLC seems like the best way, cater the majority of the playerbase (aka SP campaign players) while not affecting the MP players with new civs.

Problem is DE team almost promised that there would be no more expansions on the release of the game, so adding expansions to keep the servers going is a terrible excuse(specially because they never talked about the game failing in number of sales or anything related to low income from AoE 2).

EDIT: maybe promised is a not the proper word. DE team said they didn't INTEND to add more expansions.

Elite Berserks counter Arbalesters.

World edges and forgotten empires breaks up with microsoft, aoe4 fails, microsoft release the network code, we port DE exe to voobly or similar fan made platform, we make donations for 3 servers, we correct balance changes and remove clown civs if possible, then we can play aoe without any further menace telling what should we play or who and stop getting more stupid civs no one asked for and we put and end to aoe3/aom and aoe4 bonuses.

Unfortunately (I'd like it to be otherwise)
97% of AoEZone posts with the word Voobly in it, are biased rubbish which doesn't deserve a read



But sometimes I read them just for the laughs



And to let myself die

Guys who post long posts and comments in these forums have actually no real life.

Another one of my unpopular opinion, I hate you.

Remove pause from ranked games

 

[squeak]

1v1 tournaments are starting to become boring and repeatitive

I hope I don't get banned for this but...

The "lord" Daut memes are overrated and very childisch.

(He is an amazing player tho, I agree on that!)

 

[doacid]

I see your Daut opinion and I raise it!

I don't want aoe2 to grow any bigger.

 

[Akos04]

Empire Wars is trash

You’re a hero to say that tbh 11.

I am genuinely happy for T90 and think it is an interesting opportunity.

AoE1 has 475k followers on FB Gaming, while AoE2 only has 25k with two notable streamers, Gkt_Cloud and Mr Bean. In theory, if the AoE2 category rose to a huge number, then that could help us to find a lot of people who have played the game when younger but not yet found it on YouTube.

 

[Rustyiesty]

Another one: I was more hyped for the final of Endowars 2 than History Hit Open. As great as it is to see Viper vs Yo (a classic matchup), Gabi vs Lavie is something we have only seen a few times, and in EW for the first time.

I might even be more hyped for a Queen of the Desert than King of the Desert!

Not disagreeing, but the reason for half mil followers is probably:
AOE1 = Viets
FB = More of an Asian thing nowadays

vivi actually speaks perfect English, he's purposefully using broken English on game chat just to troll and makes us laugh.
