In this video I misread one of my lines and call the "Adriatic" Sea the "Caspian" Sea. Here's a "remaster" where both the video's history of Attila the Pacifist and its geography are 100% accurate: ua-cam.com/video/w9s3i1z7ysc/v-deo.html
People watch these because they are clever and unique. You didn't just win the campaign, you won in a completely new and interesting manner, and you did this for the whole game. It is a fantastic accomplishment, and you deserve the surge in subscribers you got for it. Brilliant job mate.
And not just win the campaign, but win it on hard difficulty (and do the achievement of destroying the wonders without allowing the factions to finish their construction) which is also quite the feet!
Not only the art. The music is creepy as f***. It sets the mood for the story and makes it feel like a horror story more than one about war. They destroyed that mood in DE replacing the music with generic drums.
"Overcome with grief for the Hunnic warriors who had laid down their lives in the name of pacifism, the people of Sofia cut themselves in mourning. Unfortunately, their inexperienced hands cut too deeply, and those who did not succumb to blood loss fell prey to tetanus and died."
Father Armand: "The river banks were covered with human bones-..." T-West: "uhmno" Father Armand: "...-and the stench of death was so great that none could enter the city-." T-West: "lol nope" What kind of sick, twisted, fantasy, clearly fictional world does Father Armand live in to talk like this??? 🙃
Clearly the deaths being blamed on the Huns was propaganda of the Roman Army; the actual cause of death was a plague accompanied by severe dehydration, hence why so many people died by the river.
Making cities to starve to death, destroying buildings, making villagers slave, letting your own units die - I would not call it "pacific" in any way...
One the many things you have built over the course of these videos is your storytelling ability to weave a narrative around these pacifist runs. Discovering your channel was one of the better things that happened to me in 2020!
i love how mr t west narrates attila's conquests like if they were the kidest people of earth :) keep the good work mr t west and congrats for the 16k subs :)
The last mission was basically an epic thriller with how you framed it. I was at the edge of my seat. I happened on your channel by complete chance and frankly I love both your pacifist runs and your custom campaign runs, especially the Gwyndlegard trilogy. You're easily one of my favorite AoE content creators and I hope you keep doing your quirky shenanigans.
There's actually a way to j-bait the scripting while the boar kills bleda. If you run in the forest hit the boar once and run back to camp you'll trigger the nomad script right as he dies resulting in bleda being dead and the archers being converted along with getting 2 sets of tributes. I can post a video to my channel if people are interested in seeing it.
The Tarkan torch is a powerful symbol of peace. Even the earth bows down in front of their honor, crumbling walls and buildings that obstruct their noble mission.
"You question my every decision. It is as if you seek to lead the Huns yourself. " "No, no, brother, all I want is for everyone to live long and happy lives" - Real historial discussion between Bleda and Attila.
26:34 C'mon Travis that's the Adriatic Sea (part of the greater Mediterranean Sea), not the Caspian Sea... the Caspian sea is around 3000 km away in Central Asia 111 But congrats on pacifying the original campaigns man! It was a really creative idea, and I am glad you've gotten so much success from doing it :)
I even wrote Adriatic in my script! Didn't notice I said the wrong one despite rewatching that part over and over 11. At some point soon I'll rerecord that line and edit in the correct sea, then reupload an unlisted video and link to it here.
That classic AoE 1 theme playing is just *chef's kiss* And the classic Conquerers narration. (Although I think Attila narration is actually pretty good in DE) Man of culture hours
I had a feeling of deja vu watching the first mission (especially when you targeted the Market and the Monastery of the Romans) but realized that it was a speedrunner who defeated the Romans the same way.
I love how the Narrator keeps saying that you were brutal. In mean, you just beat your Opponent, without killing them, while your Men die. Thats like the ultimate power move
6:14 "Stay there and we'll send Dave to help you out on his way back from picking up his wife from the mall" This is a very inside joke with the deeper layer that the scout will never be picked-up by Dave! HILARIOUS
I wonder if down the road we'll ever see the AoE team legitimize the pacifist runs and add achievements for them. (Guess the only way to find out is to keep hitting the subscribe button)
He had me at 16:35! 18:15, enough internet for the day... 16k subscribers and you still read each and ever comment. Hats off! God Bless you for your Pacifism!!!
As person who's only subscribed in the past few weeks -- randomly saw a pacifist video recommended to me and I think the idea is so unique compared to most of the AOE videos I've seen. edit: Can't wait to see you play the other expansion campaigns! I think they are a bit harder than these. Already have thoughts on which may be trouble for pacifism.
"I don't think I ever beat any of these scenarios without cheat codes as a kid" me neither, man. I barely understand the game even now. I'm much, MUCH better at AoM and always get absolutely trashed by anything but the easiest AI in AoE II.
There's something about this game...that makes it never,ever die...the background music,the in game dialogues (back in the day) the stories...the best game ever! Don't even try to change my mind
Yes, its possible to win campagin without killing enemy units. Moreover, in original AoE2 you can do it in any campaign. just write in the chat "I R WINNER" and you're done)
I really enjoed this whole series, defnitley worth watching. I was thinking you could do some of the Rise of the Rajas campagins if the Expansion is in DE.
Pacifist Mod Idea: name- "Exile" When you delete a unit, it doesn't die, instead it changes to Gaia unit and walks off the map. You can even add dialogues ("My lord has banished me!", "Freedom!", "How will I feed my family now?"). Someone with skill and time, please make this!

Nice one! Loved this series btw! So much attention to detail!
Wait, so you want to tell me that you passed on this easy opportunity to rickroll us?
I am a little disappointed to be honest

I think an important part also, is that big T's commentary is quite entertaining
I also watch them for the really entertaining narrative. Its a combination of many aspects that makes those videos so enjoyable for me.
And not just win the campaign, but win it on hard difficulty (and do the achievement of destroying the wonders without allowing the factions to finish their construction) which is also quite the feet!
What did the Pope say to Attila?
"Wololo", of course.
I'm pedantic. You can't convert hero units in Definitive Edition!

Can we all just take a moment to admire those last story panels? I always thought it was a clever little twist, especially with the great art.
Absolutely. The Hun's campaign narration and panels were probably out of all campaigns. Absolutely marvelous.
Shame what DE did to them...
I was so disappointed playing this campaign in DE when I saw how flat and emotionless this narration was.
@@SeaBomb The same can be said to almost all of DE's campaigns, unfortunately.
Damn, you beat me to it.

8:32 Ah, The Pacifist Attila didn't kill anybody in his raids. He just drove them to severe depression and made them kill themselves

Sadly I'm pretty sure most of them are impossible.
I'd love to be proved wrong, of course. :)

Why is it all the super bloody conquering hero’s that can be done without kills
Also damm them for fixing the 20 year old blada lives bug
The monk's in 4th mission :
"Y'all shall not pass!"
Roman Legionnaire: "understandable, have a great day"
They fixed it now monks disappear and Romans carry on

Allies in AOE2 have 2 categories:
They'll betray you;
They're osrogoths.
ah of course, who can forget how the pacifist attila nicely implored theodosius to peacefully transfer control of the eastern roman empire to him.
