Expected to have a favorite, but nope! All are different yet nostalgic. And they are all bangers aren't they 😂
Aoe2 forgotten is just such a good expansion. It not only was in hd edition but also was a mod for the conquerors.

Mediocre, considering that the campaigns were not even voiced or had music/sound effects
The best is clearly the forgotten
3:45 sounds like the house sound in AoM
Nothing hits like the OG theme so fucking good. Still gota give the forgotten the silver star for being a revamped OG version and the African kingdom the bronze for being so goddamn hype

1:01 the best theme, 1:19, the best part

Last one, Lords of the West, really gives you that vibe that makes you ask yourself "Could I really, sometime, become a Robert Guiscard? A Roger Bosso?"
The definitive edition hits hard into nostalgia, can't imagine how much we did play back then... 10 match a day at least if not more, everyday.. Damn that summer was a blast!
the forgotten hits SO HARRRRRRRRD
AoK brings back so many memories and the true OG theme
Too bad there isn't one for Dawn of the Dukes or Dynasties of India.
Aoe forgotten possibly the best remake version of original aoe 2 theme
Thanks for compiling this! Now I can listen to all of them on loop
Most epic is the Forgotten one 😍
LOL... I was making a video exactly like this one, since it seemed incredible to me that it didn't exist. I was looking for more information before making the video compilation and BOOM! I find your video. Very good job, and I'll probably stop doing it or finish it privately. Greetings from Mx.

I can relate, it has happened to me too. I once did a video and it turned out another guy (who I knew even!) had already done almost the exact same video a few years prior - awkward! haha
i grew up on aoe 1 and have played every version of every title in the franchise. conquerors was a favorite for a while because of that tune switch into the meso theme was so perfect. then HD forgotten came out, and it sounded like the "AoE 3" version of the aoe 2 theme, in the good way. african and rajas were immersive and sparky and fun, a fresh take with good instrument choices. lords of the west sounded like the intro to a live action movie of aoe and had a great crescendo. idk why but the last khans version is just such a wild card, and it still gives the feeling of racing across the face of the earth on horseback. i love it
I have been trying to find 1:01 for a looooong time! today, I finally found it! thanks for sharing this video!! :) :D
There's also a version for the AoE2 demo, would've been a good addition to the video.

There are two, actually. One is a fully medieval melody and the othe one is a MIDI version of Tazer.
I forgot how hard the forgotten goes 🔥
Gonna peek at your mods. I really like the rajas theme :D
As a Malaysian, the Rise of the Rajas my favourite one
Definitely my top would be: 1 The conquerors 2 The forggoten 3 Definitive Edition 4 The others
Conquerors takes me way back to when I was 5, good days of losing to the medium AI😂
3:21 Glorious King Barbossa of the Portuguese, the most powerful kingdom in Africa!
Hadn't noticed before, but the DE theme sounds a LOT like one of the secondary themes for AC4 BF Guess it kinda makes sense, but also, weird that I've played both games so much and only noticed it now

@@hjoerleif2 There's hidden eaater egg Age of Empires 2 song in one of the discs of Age of Mythology. The song is actually a spoof/parody of the Age of Empires 2 song that was made to prank fans of the franchize who were complaining there was no Age of Empires III, so instead of instruments it has a choir of people whose voices have been sped up to sound like chipmunks and the only thing they say is: "This is A G E of Three" but its actually the song from Age of Empires 2.
