Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition - Pachacuti Campaign "A New Power Arises" | Hard Playthrough

This is my playthrough of the first mission from the Pachacuti campaign in Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition. I'll be placing time stamps for each part of the scenario in the comments section for those looking for a specific part. Enjoy! Pachacuti mission 1 was much more difficult than I expected. The Relic Cart locations are actually really hard to see, and the enemies are decently aggressive. Not to mention that Quechua as an ally are pretty useless, but as an enemy are frustrating due to their close proximity. I highly recommend investing a lot in fishing early, and walling off your choke points asap. By having walls in good places, you can use Archers to pick off enemy infantry whilst you get a good economy going. In the timestamps I'll specifically point out where the relic carts are found to hopefully make everyone else's playthrough of this mission a little smoother. There's actually 4 relic carts but I lost one, so I'll point out where they all are. Stay tuned for the rest of my Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition Hard Playthrough! The first two missions in the Pachacuti campaign felt really difficult, but the last two weren't too bad. I think the campaign difficulty should've been more progressive, but I enjoyed it overall. #AoE2DE #PachacutiMission1 #PachacutiANewPowerArises
