Flatpacks are very restrictive by design. While this is a good thing in many cases, it makes it very difficult for tools like EmuDeck to work properly. For example, automatically installing other applications (in this case: emulators) isn‘t easily possible. This would make a flatpak version of Emudeck pretty much useless.

While I understand your concerns, I think installing an AppImage which has been built on Github from open source code just isn‘t all that risky.

Well, Nick used that term and he‘s probably in a position to know if it‘s the right one.

It‘s probably important to mention that the entire video team is gone. Some of them were fired, so the rest walked. They‘re planning to go independent soon.

Edit: Their new channel will be SecondWindGroup. They’ll do a livestream on November 8th at 11 AM CT, explaining their plans for the future. (Source)

I think it‘s different enough to scratch a different itch from time to time. Sure, the general setting and some basic mechanics are similar to AoE2‘s, but overall the game plays very differently. For example, I really like that there are fundamental differences in the play styles of different civilizations. I‘d really recommend giving AoE4 a shot, if you want to play an RTS besides AoE2.
