Recently started playing this awesome game after hearing about it from a friend - any tips or tricks?

So I have been playing Aoe2 for a long time, and have just now started Celeste. It feels so far like an incredible game, the best part about it is of course the progression system with all the gears, advisors, city building, etc.

I feel like the actual gameplay (during quests and pvp) have been standard and not much of a challenge to pick up, given my experiences from AOE2, but still would highly appreciate it if any veterans here can provide some tips or tricks for a player like me? Thank you.

Question about AI difficulty in skirmish

Hi, I've been recently playing Project Celeste, and I'm so in love with the game. We've done some online matches with a friend and we had a blast!

However, we tried playing against the AI in skirmish mode (the one you access through Cyprus, if I'm not wrong) and it totally destroyed us, even in the standard difficulty level. Later on, I managed to win against a single AI opponent in standard, but it was literally one of the most challenging AoE games ever for me (I'm talking about the whole franchise). I consider myself a relatively AoE skilled player, and I am pretty sure that the AI had really strong units and economy, more than should be expected without any kind of bonus.

Neither I nor my friend played through all the PvE quests that the game offers for the first hours of gameplay. Is it possible that, by doing so, we will be able to unlock more powerful gear/units/whatever to play fairly against the AI? Or is there something we're not taking into account?

Is it even legal to be winning fights when on paper you're that far behind? This ranged deathball control is giving me a headache!

Offline Skirmish isn't working since last update

I can't just play offline skirmish now since the last update in late Sept 2024. I get to the select the 8 civilizations screen, but you can't click any of them. Is that because there is still updating going on or another reason?

Also, I feel the jump from weak computer player to standard computer player is pretty big ... I know I know just play better but seems a little harsher than the old game I remember.

Lost my whole base but won off a 30 villager lead in AoEO, then won a base race purely because opponent chased villagers instead of cleaning up my base in AoE3. I bring you the Benny Hill guide to turning AoE games around!

Why is the game so difficult?

So I just installed the game but it is insanely hard. I can consistently defeat the hard AI on AoE2, the Very Hard AI on AoE3 and AoE4 but on this game I get destroyed incredibly easily against the standard AI on my first skirmish.

Does the online component of the game affects the gameplay? (for example need to equip items or boosts to my units) or are the unlockables just cosmetic?
