Any person that says the best AoE is any game other than AoE2, they're just objectively wrong. AoE2 is the best of the best.

AoE3 is best and the most overlooked, and I will die on this hill.

They've given up trying to make a better one and are doing a Skyrim now! 😂

Seriously though, I'm glad to see Playstation users getting the chance to play what I think is the best game in the series. I wouldn't be upset if they just continued upgrading AOE2 with DLC for another 25 years!

Has anyone successfully used a mouse in a game like this on PS5? I got Anno 1800 on sale for super cheap, and tried using a regular BT mouse, and it was awful. Like they didn't anticipate that anyone would have wanted to try that over a controller.
