Hopefully there'll be a mod to replsce the voice acting with the old ones

I honestly hoped there were cinematics like the ones in Warcraft 3, sigh. at least they could redo the voices for the campaign with new actors

I can't believe I lived long enough to see this.

It would be great if they released Chinese, Indian, Persian, Japanese, Korean, and Mayan mythology as an expansion later.

Where is the 5th red seal ship, I found only 4 with marco polo cheat codes.

did it on hard with 4 rams 4 onagers and only archers + monk convert and hard micro plays

I like the accent but they miss the theatrical exaggerations that give a mythical feel to the dialogur

very bad very bad remaster

these maps never goes as it goes in your videos...

FINALLY someone I can trust to actually break the game down in a methodical manner.

Now I want the animated menu background for AoE2 too

You gonna continue the DS AoE2 campaigns?

Is the Tale of the Dragon campaign included?

Yes, there was a town center in the original campaign mission.

Graphics look great. As for the Cutscenes they seem to be bit off but I am hoping in the final product they get fixed.

Finally ornlu is back. Plz do a lot of aoe 2 de custom campaigns

nah man this VA ain't it. There was so much more emotion expressed in the original

Oh my god, Athena's voice acting is so bad lol. I cant believe someone okayed this... The audio is general just feels way off.

I grew up with AoM and played it since I was like 9 and watched my brother play too. It is one of my all time favourite games. Honestly the remake doesn't look bad, but it doesn't throw me off my chair either. I would need to play it myself or see more to get a real impression of it.

feels like the graphics is set to low.

Athena is the godess of wisdom, so she already knows what arkantos is going to say. Thats why she interrupt him in the initial dialogues.

omg thank you so much for playing my fav game from my infancy

I honestly think the change in the voice acting makes this a pass for me by itself, currently. The original Athena VA is, genuinely, iconic, and the other VAs almost all gave performances filled with character. These look to be as flat and directionless as, well...as the AoE2DE vocal performances, unfortunately--I suspect Gargarensis and Ajax will REALLY suffer from this, and Arkantos already just doesn't have the same fire (look at the the gulf in delivery for the "This errand will not take long", as an example--the original Theocrat also gave a performance that helped support later plot developments on re-play). It genuinely seems like first-time script reads, and that once again "accurate accents" are being prioritized over quality. (Which is also a bit silly because, you know, Atlantis never existed--and the other languages likely sounded different given we're dealing with over two millennia ago.) I could look past the *severe* downgrade in performance quality in AoE2DE enough to still buy it because of everything else on offer, but it doesn't seem like that will apply here. Pretty disappointing to have IMO worse art and worse acting two decades later. (I do appreciate the video from Ornlu, to be clear, and will keep checking in to see if somehow later scenarios pick it up or add something sufficiently worthwhile. But I felt like sharing my reaction to the actual game on offer as well, and to my own disappointment, it's pretty firmly negative. I fundamentally disagree with the management/development choices seemingly on display here.)

Hmmm...I'm not feeling the new voiceovers. The Theocrat especially sounds weak.

The graphics are disappointing to me. Yes it looks like AOM which is good, but to me the graphics update is almost on the same level as the one of Aoe2:HD.

Overall, I'm real hype for Retold, but the voice acting is not doing it for me. I do appreciate the Greekness, but the VAs aren't selling me. The inflections are mostly off (although Arkantos is doing a pretty good job). For instance, Krios doesn't sound old or wise

I don't mind giving the characters a Greek or corresponding accent, but regardless, this voice acting is clearly inferior... The delivery of the lines lacks confidence and pacing, feels kinda like students reading a play.

por favor, ya me compre el DLC ¿donde donde puedo descargar este ESCENARIO DE mapa? en el editor para poder hacerle algunos arreglos y jugarlo a mi modo si ya tengo el DLC ya compre el dlc donde descargo el escenario, el mapa de escenario.

I can't help but notice that Atlantis isn't located in the Atlantic in anymore. Not really a fan of that.

This is looking like an UE5 and AI generated phone game. I really hope they didn't screw with the balance too much. Most the fun of AoM is that you can have zany armies of broken units clashing against each other trying to out cheese each other.

Nah not worth it for 35 euros.

If this was free for original owners I'd play it, otherwise...

I have a bad feeling about this...

Man.. I'll admit I'm not that much into age of mythology, mostly because I simply didn't play it much and I mostly stuck with AoE2 but the quality in display is.. not enticing me to play XD Even with your commentary and all.

Ornlu on the AoM campaign...these are strange times.

The more I see of the remaster, the less I want to buy it. Some very strange decisions when it comes to the campaign/story, which was the best part of the game for me

The color palette is a bit worse and the portraits in the cutscenes look like Ai's work, but overall it looks good so far.

Arkantos look strange

Youpii

Oh mans!

There no ornlu in this game

Holy shit they changed the voices? 0% chance I'll be buying this Edit: and they got rid of the world map for campaign selection? WTF?

Im still happy about the remake but the speech bubbles do look cheap.

What a Nostalgia.. Ornlu could you please make the music a bit louder adn the battle sound less loud? The music is as nostalgic as the game

they wont fix this in one month, its over lads 😢 30 euros for multiplayer queue and built in spectate/capture age it is...

"This errand will not take long" yeah sure Arkantos... sure ...

9:18 Daniela_Homie.exe started working

Original one have TC but not on this one.

Not sure how I feel about the voice acting being changed. It might be due to nostalgia though... Either way glad to see you play the campaign!

Everyone is having a Greek accent. Definitely feels authentic.
