Age of Empires II, first released in 1999, gave players a set of numbered chat taunts that could be sent to opponents during a match, and the French localisation recorded its own versions of those short voice lines. Taunt seven became a handy reaction outside matches too, as strategy creators lifted it for videos, streams and soundboards where a quick scream worked better than a long explanation. Its brevity, clear panic and instantly recognisable game origin keep it in rotation for Age of Empires edits and wider gaming memes.
