First AoE 4 review: biggest German gaming magazine

• Mediocre campaign; extremely sterile way to tell the story

The campaign story telling style is a subjective matter, since players like SOTL like it:

The AoE4 Campaigns are Awesome! (Norman campaign mission #1)

Cons:

1. Mediocre campaign; extremely sterile way to tell the story
2. Loveless graphical details; sometimes immersion breaking (things like: inanimate buildings, missing animations (e.g. when building rams), no siege crews, strange arrow physics etc.)
3. Missing control basics; missing customizability

The same things we have been critizing over and over from about a year! Do you see what happens when you are deaf to the criticism? this game could be a complete masterpiece if they listened to us properly!

Good news: Age of Empires 4 made it into the top 120 games (currently placed 102nd) released in 2021 (based on metacritics)
