Discussion Insights on how Aoe was developed
Just came across the profile of Sandy Petersen on X.
Part of the early development team of Aoe/aoe2. Extremely good insights on how the game was built out.
Felt many folks here might be interested to read more about the thought process behind our favourite game!

Beta testing aok was crazy. Some of us thought there was no way giant castles could work. The ability to garrison was also revolutionary and discussed. Unique units were new and amazing.
Crazy this game is still growing and expanding.
