Modding Age of Empires II with a Sprite-Diffuser

The crazy part is that some of the players who dominated the multiplayer scene in 2000 are still playing…and dominating.

TheViper regularly streams his matches. Surreal watching them cause I remember playing against him (and losing) 20+ years ago.

Wow! I looked him up and he was already a competitive player at 10 years old? That's pretty insane.

I must've been around 12 myself. This game has been a part of my life since before puberty.

I ascribe part of my deep love for history to this game.

I played the original Age of Empires when I was really young, I liked it so much I built my first website ever on geocities about that game.

I loved AoE 2 when it came out too. And yeah I loved the history immersion

Don't remember playing against Viper but DauT had nearly made me smash my keyboard in a team game because I was sure he was cheating hehehe (and I was a teenager with a giant ego).
