Thank you for uploading this game. It brought back nostalgic memories from my younger days. I hope the BTDP expansion set (DLC) will be uploaded as well!
I am astounded that levels I struggled with almost 30 years ago are easily handled by just rushing the Orc base with two footmen, a knight, and a ballista.
In the final mission, I don’t destroy all the orange structures so their dragons don’t come at me. Then, I build some farms near them so they cast Death and Decay on me, because they won’t attack themselves.
Mission 10 Prisoner Peasants: "Well, we may be prisoners, but at least we got here alive! Now that we're out of the danger zone, we don't have to worry about anything bad happening here in Stratholme!"
It's so cool to see speed run strats for this game, because I still remember playing it and struggling so much on the missions as a kid lol. Edit was auto correct spelling error.
I find it interesting that while Gryphons destroyed the Dark Portal in 14th level Khadgar was shown in ending video. They could have made it like expansion where Dark Portal only takes damage from Khadgar (or Mage to keep non-expansion hero free). Then the ending video would have aligned with game.
Darrowmere also be like "I blinked again. Uther made it safely?" Funnily enough when I was a kid, Darrowmere took a bit for me to finish. Some levels I just couldn't speed through or I didn't feel confident enough to do so. Tarren Mill was easy enough, Darrowmere required a slow push with siege weapons... Which is funny because the previous level, I am confident enough in my starting forces to go defeat the Red Orcs. Not the Purple ones though; I wait until I get a siege weapon or two. But after watching you do it, I'm like... "Huh, so they can also disrupt Purple as well?"
Sprites having a mismatch occasionaly when chopping wood is one thing. It can be fixed. But what I spot at 9:55 saddens my heart. There was a good reason why groups had 9 members. Not 6, nor that cursed 12.
That's a very specific and pointless thing to be upset for (the amount of units you can select), because I don't see any issue, it's literally an improvement so you may just be nostalgic about the old limits the game had
There's a generic bug in the game that the AI will sometimes stop gathering wood when you load a save and then they run out and can't build anymore. I don't think they fixed it for Remastered, but it doesn't happen in my videos because I don't save/load during the missions.
On mission 11, you could have started off by upgrading your units instead of trying to build farms. It would be far more efficient since you already start with a large army.
the start of last human mission is pretty bs, if you take any time what so ever you gonna get swamped in dragons, also killing orange buildings is trap, to make 3 orange dragons attack you
Do you remember a turn based strategy game from the late 90’s to early 2000’s. It was high fantasy and you could hire mercenaries then pay them with beer. I cant remember the name.
With the power of The Light obviously! The Light is their strength. Have you ever heard of their lord and saviour, John The Light? He invented The Light you know.

@@Trendsthismonth "Deus Gracias" I'm disagreeing on the grounds that it's easier to just crib a few things from Christian mythology and songs when coming up with a fantasy world and by Warcraft 3, they decided to just go with The Light. It's also less offensive to the Christian crowd to do so.
Really lame. It's even been made worse visually. In the original, the water has different color animations, so that it looks as if it's animated. That's completely missing now and they've just added white flashing dots in the water.
Your sound card works perfectly
Lollll im not sure a lot of playars remember that thing with the first version of war2
Enjoying yourself?
It doesn’t get any better than this!
@@vubhutoto8761 I remember it very strongly... Wish they included it as an easter egg nowadays

If you go to the sound settings I think there is a "Test" option which allows you to hear that line.
I really enjoy your style of text-based explanations of the videos.

Thank you so much, this game is legendary and with such grossmeister as you it shines even more

A lot of levels I just go "Artillery Only!" :D
@@werothegreat stu is a pro. Try it yourself you will see its really not easy that way, and sometime a little mistake and you lose all your units
@@vubhutoto8761yeah, many times when I just send my army in I always wonder what the hell happened to all my units
Finally, that's what I have been waiting for!
Thank you for the uploading!
The Captain is, seemingly, on the bridge.
And he keeps saying something about his eye. Must have something in it.
This is my favorite game from my childhood. Your video has inspired a pleasant feeling of nostalgia. Thank you from Russia!

Tarren Mill be like "Sorry, I blinked. Did I miss the whole thing?"
thank you for playing this game. had great memories with them
Very awesome. Cant wait for the expansions videos!
I actually did not know you could repair transport ships... you learn something new every day I guess

Dude, your micro in mission 10 is really insane, low HP units doding attacks
Oh, yes. Another episode of "Killing Your Own Troops To Sustain The Economy" series.
The old Metzen art is so sick.

Yeah I was surprised at the Darrowmere strat. Love it though.
i loved playing this game as a kid

@@somwon916 There is a specific reason. Not the nostalgic. Only those who played 30 years ago know.
good work :) I feel motivation in this segment xDDD

I love this game
what dificulty was this on? really nice work you did :)
There are no difficulty options, just game speed - this is the fastest one
very cool dude
There is no way Blizzard gave this a thorough testing. How else would no one notice the faulty chopping/repair animation...

Lords of Magic?
Thats gotta be disorientating going through two different control groups at the same time.. my eyes barely stand it from the cycling
When I installed the game, I didn't see any cursor anymore in the menu and during gameplay. Did anyone else have the same problem?
What's an Elf destroyers favorite animal? ... Aye-Aye
Danke!
Thanks for the support!
@@StuGames Thank you for your vids. I've found some very interesting tricks here.
They only remastered Tides of Darkness???
Looks like the graphics have been scaled up by AI. Not horrible, but nothing I would pay money for. Anyway, thanks for the entertainment.
Beyond the Darkportal wspeedrun soon i hope.
Holy uour good
That was...commanding.
Blood lust is so overpowered! How did humans win then??

such a weird game

what a lazy and bad "remaster" version of the game. basically just the old one but with black lines drawn around the sprites. lame!
😆 But you can select 3 more units
Someone woke up and patted themselves on the back for this remaster. 🤦♂️

@@v509-cassiopeiae3kek, didn't notice that water isn't what it was suppose to be.
No human lore
