The first release of 0 A.D. that doesn't have an Alpha label attached, as the free and open source RTS has grown up with their faster release schedule.

0 A.D. is a solid one, def give it a good try. I go back to it every so often for multiplayer skirmishes.

Haven't played it in a year or two, I wonder if the 'high unit count lag' in multiplayer is gone.

0AD has generted more excitement in the RTS space, for me, than the initial release of 'The Ancient Art of War'.

Try it out, if just for the late-game seige engines.

I really want to play this game but I am having trouble to see high DPI the games load with a tiny tiny font for me. I am using Linux Mint

Hmm, there might be a more proper solution, but picking a lower resolution would probably make things bigger...

So if I change out my wife's glasses, something might appear bigger? 👀 /s
