Age of Empires 2 launched in 1999 with a set of numbered chat taunts that played a voice line for all players, with number 2 mapped to a simple 'No'. Each localisation re-recorded the lines, so the French version uses a blunt 'Non' instead of the English refusal. The taunts became a staple of multiplayer banter and later of recorded games and strategy memes, where short voice clips punctuate casts and edits. Because the game remains active through its Definitive Edition, these tiny localisation quirks still circulate as in-jokes among fans.

The French 'Non' taunt 02 from Age of Empires 2, a male voice saying no. Players use it to refuse trades, mock enemies or add comic timing to strategy clips.
This is taunt number two from the French localisation of Age of Empires 2, lasting less than a second. A male voice delivers a short, flat 'Non' with a clipped, slightly nasal tone, much like a villager acknowledging an order he will not follow. There is no music or background noise, just the dry voice line cut clean at both ends. In a video it lands as an instant, deadpan refusal that feels funnier than a longer rant. Viewers hear the familiar strategy-game cadence and immediately get the joke, which makes it perfect for quick rejections and ironic no-moments.
