I should not need to explain this one.

Yeah ok it was a bit reductive, ima bit defensive about 0AD cuz i loved AoE but i hate Microsoft, and 0AD is the only existing replacement.

It gets better over time. I love that there is the option to play with infinite amount of units (if ur pc can handle it), i played matches with 3000 vs 3000 units and it was very fun. I love the custom map editor. There is also a few "fun" modes like wolfmap, its a map in the arctic without any wood (u get some start resources) and every few minutes there are a bunch of wolves spawning, and if u set the map size to huge...its not just a few wolves after some play time it becomes a zombie wolf game where you have to defend yourself against thousands of wolfs while somehow trying to get some fenced off trade up for resources. That mode is very fun and i seen many games where players dont even get to fight each other because they spend the whole game fighting wolfe attack waves.
