This Phenomenal RTS is BACK in a Big Way! | Age of Mythology: Retold

[@argentinianspotter]

YEEEES! Age of Mythology is an awesome game! Happy you're taking a look at the remastered version!

[@akaMaddy]

Oh it's way more than a simple remaster my friend. 😄

[@leftyfourguns]

The Chinese faction is going to be completely remade from scratch. So it will be very exciting to see what they came up with!

[@zebio]

Yeah after the major issues they had in the remaster its good to see they'll be properly done up this time.

[@Gweelo]

Such a good call by the devs to do so. The EE Chinese was trash

[@monfr0]

Hope it gets overhauled because the Chinese suck. I mean they really really suck.

[@alaniacrose8344]

Yes Golden Gift was a downloadable story that was free. Somewhere in my collection of old magazines I still have the copy of PC Gamer with their article about it. Was nice to see a beautifully done re-master of this game.

[@SephirothRyu]

They forgot to give Zeus his "sleep with a literal cow" ability.

[@dylanwillmon5672]

No they didn't, he has hero focus, they're all his kids afterall

[@jessnalulila5552]

Actually Zeus never slept with a cow. He turned the woman(Io) into a cow AFTER the act

[@Nameless-sq6fq]

Ah my childhood game, the game remind I am not the best tool in shed for RTS game

[@PravusGaming]

Heh, I feel ya. I love a good RTS, but I'm not good in the competitive scene.

[@Nameless-sq6fq]

@@PravusGaming this remaster man they nailed it, I going give a try even if I not good in RTS

[@Jack-xx3qg]

I still play the old version Im 36 years now. Nostalgic. "TROJAN HORSE FOR SALE" "WRATH OF THE GODS" "PANDORAS BOX"

[@Rays_K]

As a kid I heavily rely on cheat when playing this game. Now as an adult and an experience RTS gamer, I'm excited to play this game again without any cheats haha.

[@colapsar4271]

This game taught me how to type: Divine Intervention, Junk Food Night, Trojan Horse for Sale, ATM of Erebus. Good memories.

[@Cynndora]

with regards to the voice acting, they did actually take on the feedback of people not liking it and redid the redub again, it does sound better, but i think a lot of people will still cling to the original, i imagine it wont be long until someone creates a mod that brings back the old VA, i imagine there's legal issues for microsoft themselves to do it as a base-line feature given it's not already in the game. As for the game itself, there is actually a hidden 5th age, if you build a wonder it triggers a wonder age, which dramatically reduces the cost/cooldown of god powers, powers up your titan and even lets you build multiple, so it's this absolute bonkers god-like mode and it's really nice to see them have the wonder play a role in the game that isn't just the wonder victory condition.

[@MarkusFlaviusAntonius]

Oh yes, I hope you do play more of Age of Mythology, I love it!

[@MieszkoTheFirst]

Who remembers the trailer for the original game back in the day? It was epic! Cant wait to play this remake

[@gameplayer1980]

Master class in how you upgrade an old game.

[@assman-69]

My absolute favorite video game growing up.I had everything I always wanted in an RTS.

[@ryshow9118]

I started AoM and Warcraft at just about the same time as a kid and fell in love with the genre

[@TomorrowWeLive]

Interesting to see the new new God portraits. Apollo is so gorgeous.

[@ConstantijnII]

AoM was literally the very first RTS I ever played. It deserved some love for a long time.

[@TheDannen2k]

Age of Mythology is one favorite games I am glad to see it get the love it deserves 🙂

[@gianniaerts7352]

‘You can’t go wrong with Zeus” -> Made me chuckle. I know what you meant in the context of the game Pravus but there is a whole lot wrong with Zeus and his lusty, shapeshifting escapades 😂

[@Khaine286]

OMG, thank you for the update I have been dying to play this game again after such a long time.

[@shayneramsay1388]

This brings back alot of memories Pravus so want to see Pravus the Magnificent fighting for our side

[@odioaleman]

Best thing about the age of mythology reboot is getting the new game, the second best (and very close) has been discovering that i was never alone in my enjoyment of this game. As a 7 year old withojt internet i never new so many people loved the game

[@odioaleman]

Also, the music sounds amazing

And for the love of God don't train him at all if you're allied with someone training Polyphemus.

Oh holy crap, even the plenty vault is infinite with favor use. A turtles dream. Eventually they will just feed into each other, because when you reach a certain number of vaults and have economy just from them, all villages then become favor generators and it becomes a loop.

[@mattt0149]

think it's still has its old Flying Rainbow heart-shooting hippopotamus cheat code again, that was fun watching a whole mass of Flying Rainbow heart-shooting hippopotamus well at least I think that

[@dekmar7954]

I didn't play this growing up and am still HYPED for this game! Looks so good!

EERSTE BLAGGIN!

[@inductivegrunt94]

The game looks really amazing! I've never played the original version, so I'm excited to play this for the first time.

[@afeathereddinosaur]

I'm thinking they're going to rework the Chinese faction. Differently from all the others, it was made by other developers and had way less care put into it. It doesn't compare to the others and their different playstyles.

[@PravusGaming]

I hope that's true, never felt like the Chinese myths fit the rest of the game.

[@Stoildan]

@@PravusGaming chinese dlc was just a cashgrab made by some idiots wanting to capitalize on peoples nostalgia. They confirmed that the chinese faction will be completely remade

[@J.Moore1172]

Multiple vaults of plenty? thats interesting

[@matthewsvat7901]

If they add Slavic mythology, I am hooked

[@R4ZORLIGHT]

So refreshing to see proper arrows with proper flight arcs in an AoE game again (looking at you AoE 4...)

[@Schmitty7546]

I think most serious players, and/or those on mouse and keyboard, disable the villager resource auto-assign. But I like that it is there for accessibility.

[@redrevyol]

Yep. I tried the villager priority, and it doesn't work very well, so I have it turned off. Would be cool if there is an option for villagers to auto construct mines too.

[@TomorrowWeLive]

Totally agree about the voice acting.

[@J.J.Jameson_of_Daily_Bugle]

I am glad this is making comeback, I played this a lot with friends back in the day. Wish Impossible Creatures get next remake.

[@demonique7424]

Omg I loved this game so much! But Oh Canada better be still included otherwise no dice.😂

[@kamilm.7475]

Only thing I'm not so sure about are these gods arts... give me back Hera with her judging look or older Dionysus XD

the reuseable god power was a mod that was loved Glad too see it was added to main game. and sad that only norse got an extra god it shouldnt change much as long as units are balanced

They are!

[@JamesBondClone]

@@DennisTheCaveman awesome

[@XzMattyxZ]

6:40, that's in AOE2 on console, designed to narrow the macro skill gap a bit/help console RTS players with the lack of hotkeys etc, not bad for new players/campaign but think should be disabled in ranked imo, there is skill to macro managing whilst micro-ing units too esp on PC with access to hot-keys etc

Couldn't exactly tell during the video, but dois anyone know if they got rid of the ai generated artwork they used for the deities?

[@PravusGaming]

@@janneswilmink487 You can see the artwork early in the video. Whether it's AI or not, I can't say.

[@akaMaddy]

They definetly replaced the god portraits. It's only a matter of time until someone makes a comparsion video between beta god portraits and release god portraits. 🙂

[@emperorcoffee5217]

The voice acting seems like it is missing something, probably some Olbivion soundtrack while the dialogues happen

is that Apollo the boxer?

I played this a lot 20 years ago. I even bought and played the remaster a few years ago. I'll buy this too, as long as the cheats still work...

I wish the old cataphract unit(not chinese one) replaced the hetaroi for Poseidon, missed opportunity.

[@devids10]

Pretty interesting how the "auto macro" your villagers ain't working. Like man. I loved a game as a kid called Castle Strike, and that strategy game also had a feature like this, and it worked without an issue. New games really always come out with bugs...

[@milosstojanovic4623]

It basically plays almost exactly like Age of empires 3 and 4 plus powers. Normal difficulty is more or less like Easy, AI is not buffed with income, same as in AoE 3.

[@ComanderRilldo]

can you still unearth a Titan in this one?

I loved this game growing up! So I was very excited to see it come to Gamespass as I could get it for "free" then. But I cant play it, when it boots up, I get an "Initialization failed" error. I have tried all the usual things, fix game, reset game, uninstall and install again, I tried playing it in 1080p but nothing works. All my drivers are up to date too, so I guess I just wait for an update of some kind, either from Microsoft, or Nvidia. Its a shame, because I was excited to revisit this game from my past!!!

[@gregoryhayes7569]

Well, there's going to be DLC, so it might happen in the future.

[@hypermaeonyx4969]

I've seen a video speculating Hindu mythology, and the obvious reason why that and Abrahamic won't be added into the game is because... well... Unlike Greek, Norse or Egyptian, there are still a LOT of people that actually believe in Hinduism and the various flavours of Christianity. And if those get added into the game, there may or may not be a lot of people unhappy and pissed off.

[@Ganjalfiltubo]

The devs really said "Let's give the Greeks infinite vaults of plenty, that will be balanced"

[@Vaquedoso]

All the mythic age god powers are at this level, so it is actually well balanced

[@TheNovadragon223]

@@Vaquedososort of. Every time you use a god power the price for it go’s up say like lighting storm is 350 favor after the free use and it got up by 10 favor each use so like 350 for base then 360 and then 370. So if you want to spam them you Better have a lot of favor income to spam them

Well, this was surprising ! I never played AoM, but I always thought that it was a concurrent to AoE. It seems to be more of a reskin with some little twists, tho. I mean... those upgrade icons at 12:44 are litteraly taken from Age of Empires II, for example. I have to say, I'm a little bit disappointed.

Loved Age of Empires but found it to be kinda shallow after awhile but this seems to have more depth so I'll probably have to pick it up.

[@milosstojanovic4623]

Shallow in what ? Age of empires 3 campaign is amazing, 4 is also good, but not as good as it was in AoE 3, its more like historic documentary with fighting.

[@SkyHighCity]

@@milosstojanovic4623 shallow in mechanics although I never played the campaign so maybe that makes a difference…

[@milosstojanovic4623]

@@SkyHighCity Yeah, maybe, depending what you want from RTS game. AoE games were always classic RTS games, same as Starcraft games or Company of heroes. Me personally do not see the difference, they play mostly similar. Same thing for example with Sins of solar empire, i recommend to play that, this second game came out and it is great, they fixed performance, so now we can enjoy in massive fights :) This year apparently with 2 great RTS games. I forgot there is also Age of empires 3 Wars of liberty mod which gives more nations, and tons of value to play it. So apparently this year i gonna jump a lot from AoM, AoE DE and mod and Sins of solar empire 2 :D :D

I refuse to support the scummy extra charges for "early access". It is a scum tactic and I will never support it. Just for the 7 days early is like 25$

I get that, though I should note the Premiere version also comes with the Freyr DLC and... I think also the next two expansions? I'd have to check the roadmap.

[@Sandman10032]

I mean the game is only $25 base, so buying the premium edition not only gives you access to two new pantheons but also at least one new god, and the 7 days early access. For $50 it’s still cheaper than most games that charge $60 or $70

[@Nathan-qj7jw]

@@Sandman10032 I agree. I was surprised at how cheap the premium version is. $25.00 for the base game alone is wild
