Rise of Nations: Extended Edition Review (Guilmaz)
I love to destroy ancient nations with atomic bombs. Untill armagadon happens and we all lose.
Imagine civlisation and age of empire had a child. That child would be Rise of nation. The gameplay RTS of AOE that covers all the time period like civilisation , And its amazing. Maybe its nostalgia but i really like this game becuse of this feature,
As i said about gameplay if you love AOE you will love this too. ITs closer to AOE than civilization in matter of gameplay. Compare to AOE there is some differences like you cant build wall or you have national borders and such. that makes the game unique . and most importantly there is infinite resource. your worker workes in farm and it gives you food without farm gets depelted, there is more , like nations power . wonders mechanics and ... but i wont spoil too much. You must see it yourself.
You can start the game from an anicent nation . It can be usa it can be dutch it can be jepan . it can be almost any nation. for that time the game released, The game supoorted many nations and countries in there game. and you can continue with that nation untill current era. Each nations has different unit and playstyls . so dont worry every natons has there own identity and they are like not just some random names
The musics is godtier. I dont care what other people may say.I love it so much its so wonderful , lively , gives you energy . sometimes i played the game for the sake of music.
The game is historical . The campain missions is about story of Alexandre , Napoleon others campain like "new world" or "cold war" completly act as in alternate history . it can be also informative. but the lore or the story of the game is just to be here for entertaning ,and not educational.
i didnt faced any bug in my playthrough and the game works properly
IN CONCLOUISON:
Rise of nations is an old game that i and many people who bought , had nostalgia with it, its a great game with a great idea(playing from ancient era to modern era) that executed well. My only hope is one day this game also get a well deserved remaster like age of empire series.
If you like strategic games like Age of empires. play it you wont regret it. It maybe an old game but it aged like a fine wine.
8/10
I love you RON you was the first strategic game that i learned and i loved dearly.
