  Well how about I introduce you to... FreeCiv! https://freeciv.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• We built an entire game with graphics almost exclusively generated by DALL-E 3 (open source)

  There are many other commercial projects similar to this (colonist.io landover.io etc). None of them are open source though. This has been done in the past extensively (see freeciv.org, or Terasology, or 0 AD etc). Source: 5 months ago

• C-evo Distant Horizon (Civilization 2 and FreeCiv like opensource fan game)

  While many CivFanatics have probably heard of FreeCiv and Civ2Clone, there is also another freely available opensource indie game inspired by Civilization 2 called C-evo!

• [ROR] All New Custom Campaigns and a Classic Surprise!

  You can find them at the official website (ageofempires.com) or opening the game, going to the mod manager (the gear icon in the top right), and searching the titles. If you look for Filthydelphia you should find them, as well as my many campaigns for normal Age of Empires II! Source: 12 months ago

• Question about new Chieftains effect

  Based on the April update release notes on ageofempires.com: "Chieftains effect now also provides infantry with gold generation while attacking villagers, trade units, and monks.". Source: about 1 year ago

• What would you think of this idea regarding the leaderboard ?

  While I understand the idea and intentions it isn't practical. Our leaderboard is a 1:1 reflection of the actual game leaderboard (which funnily enough can't be browsed inside the game) that you can also see on ageofempires.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• i won the 25th anniversary giveaway

  Hey there, I'm the social media manager for the Age of Empires series, sorry to hear that you haven't been able to get in touch with anyone! The official Age forums (on ageofempires.com) and Discord are the fastest ways to get into contact with people on the community team. Source: over 1 year ago

• i thought i played with the real viper but it was someone spoofing his account and cheating :(

  This happened to me last week. The devs are aware but not sure if that means it's close to being fixed... Needless to say report it on ageofempires.com if you see it. Source: over 1 year ago
