So i was searching inside the game folder and found out that it has some manuals from the original games (age of kings and conquerors) with all the update and balance changes and tech trees.
There are some few features that seem to be missing currently. Why were they removed or are they still present and i missed them.
Some examples of them
Improved game
recording:

Press CTRL+F12, and then click the button to select the reduction ratio

the wall is built more quickly and efficiently. Also walls are now built starting from the
outside and working toward the middle so they end properly at the edge of water and
forests.
Villagers do the same and are even more efficient when they are more. There is the bug that sometimes if you build more than 2 line of wall, the villagers stuck inbetween.
>Goths – Hunters now carry +15 meat.
