@@marjiman_rts What is bother me is both Prometheus and the Atlantean Titan's mouth sealed, and in the old design they roared in their bored animation. Do you think the devs will fix it?
- Prometheus and Gaia: bad. Don't like the new altantean titans design. - Colossus, Minotaur, Lion, Frost Giant, Nidhoog, Avenger etc. : fine (quite unchanged but hd) - Hydra : kinda goofy but like it. - Wadjet : very cool, but most aztec-like than egyptian.
in that greek titan picture you can see the regular minotaur with iron axe and lacking armor. It seems that the upgraded bull minotaurs come with the extra armor and the large gold axe. Very happy to see that they will add visual upgrades to myth units because in the original game not all myth units got visual upgrades.
I didn't add some units bcs they were not so clearly shown. But bull minotaur upgrade is really cool and scary. They revealed nothing of china so that's still left to see.
Aztec is highly probable. Pantheon is not as unique as Aztecs and that could be the reason for devs to release this civ first. And I personally would prefer Aztec.
also in the trailer we briefly got to see a battle boar which looks really cool now. The original battle boar looked like a clunky shiny piece of origami.
Gotta say, while l really like the updated high-poly models for the myth units and titans (especially cerberus) I wish they'd changed the egyptian titan to something else, anything else other than Horus/Ra, and made Cerberus an _actual_ giant dog (because he was), i'm not a fan of what they've done to Gaia. She looks like groot's mother. And groot is not from an actractive family. Needless to say, i'm curious as to how you got hold of the beta?
My humble opinion. They shouldn't have changed the design just make them more detailed. Indeed Giants and Colossus fpr example are the best. Older design are very good they just lacked details
@@marjiman_rts I'm pretty sure hydras were serpent like even in the myths. Not like a t rex's boxy head with frills. The fat head with the narrow long neck makes it look so derpy like a bobblehead dinosaur thing.
The Automatons look more like straight up robots and Prometheans actually look *creepy* Which, to be fair, makes complete sense given that their flavor text depicts them as literal unfinished humans.
i liked older automatons more. They appear like dangerous ancient machines because they had dangerous looking pointy armor . While this one is like robo cop . And Prometheans looked more hideous with twisted facial features and arched back. But new ones have their own appeal. Will be cool to play with them. But they messed up the wonderful Nemean lion.
@@marjiman_rts maybe their appearance will change with upgrades? Like, as you give the Automatons their specific upgrades they look more like the originals? That would be cool.
Not gonna lie, if you gonna do the bell button and subscribe you might as well do it this way! I had a good laugh seeing Prometheus holding it like a Christmas bell all excited.
@@marjiman_rts Totally, also i do agree with Gaia looking fancy, really like her design. Not sure why so many consider it being so off. It really sells the "Earth" like feel this time as well as looking more wild. It kinda reminds me the controversy around Pandas in World of Warcraft and people not realizing there were animal characters anyone could play as already, such as Tauren (Big cows = Win, Pandas = People freaked out) But perhaps it is just the initial shock, so maybe they will start to like her in future. ^^
Her image in the trailer is fine but , image in the retold poster is a bit too young and cartoonish to be considered a titan. More like gaia's child. hence the dislike by many. I am fine with whatever as long as the in game model looks nice.
@@marjiman_rts Sobek was in the 'Age of Empires: Mythologies' handheld game on Nintendo DS, and his myth Unit was indeed Petsuchos, so it wouldn't be unprecedented. And the Norse are getting a new minor god -- Frey -- so we could potentially see new minor gods for the other factions too. I wouldn't rule it out.
The Wadjet's new wings look _so majestic and beautiful!_ 😍 Gods, they're actually my least favorite Egyptian myth unit, but Retold might just change my mind!
@@marjiman_rts _Oh, I am absolutelly _*_fascinated_*_ by their new design!_ 😍 Was never a fan of the original "ugly monster" design, so this was very much welcome! It's too bad the new Petsuchos feels a lot less fancy (and thus, less "divine") compared to his OG iteration. :\ Retold so far has been a mixed bag of good and bad ideas in terms of design.
Some of these are pretty weird, I think. With the exceptions of H. Giants and Behemots, the atlantean models seem poorly done to me. A bit to childish and simple.
From what I read it is a transport unit in game. Because it has a crucial role in the story line. Not sure about multiplayer. But I think roc will be a transport in multiplayer as well
There are missions in campaign where roc transport is needed. So that's an assurance. Multiplayer is different though. If they can balance it. It will be playable. As of now we don't know.
Last one isn't Kronos imo, he looks more like the Atlantean titan
thats right. Why they painted him red though. ! guess kronos escaped into the underworld.
Also because Atlantiean Titan got crystals or something behind his back
yes it has back crystals.
@@marjiman_rts What is bother me is both Prometheus and the Atlantean Titan's mouth sealed, and in the old design they roared in their bored animation. Do you think the devs will fix it?
Titan and unit models are pretty much final.
They won't spend money on it again. Atleast Cerberus got correct animations
gaia: i am groot
She is grown they say
Gaia was groot in god of war also
@@dywannatrawie ok but in the mythology game she was sexy
@@dywannatrawie and they say that gaia became a radical feminist xd

@@marjiman_rts what do you think will be the 2nd DLC pack's pantheon? Aztec?
Aztec is highly probable.

@@marjiman_rts 1st dlc hopefully they redo tale of the dragon and the chinese civilization instead of making them very broken

Yea, battle boars were like my fav Norse myth unit. And I really liked battle golden battle boars.
Models have improved.
If Gaia doesn’t have her leaf-bikini, it’s automatically bad design😂
She can wear whatever she wants 😜

Well gaia hs become controversial. i dont have beta acces though. Its a leaked video. Got it from my friend. He didnt disclose the source
It's no leak lol.
I imagine the reason all titan walk up right is so that they all have similar sized hit boxes, for game balance reasons.
Wanna see einherjar and valkyries, those were my favorites
The models were in the steam pictures but not clear. We will get more updates soon.
My humble opinion. They shouldn't have changed the design just make them more detailed. Indeed Giants and Colossus fpr example are the best. Older design are very good they just lacked details
I agree totally. Although new bull minotaur looks pretty good.
New design on Titans is bad too. Just had to copy shit.
I really don't like what they did with the hydra, gave it a generic t rex head with frills. The og head design will be missed.
really? everyone i hear critizided the original design making fun of it looking like a sauropod dinosaur.
Original one looks cute 🥺😂
But hydras in reality were nothing sort of that.
The new model is accurate myth wise.
@@marjiman_rts I'm pretty sure hydras were serpent like even in the myths. Not like a t rex's boxy head with frills. The fat head with the narrow long neck makes it look so derpy like a bobblehead dinosaur thing.
Yes. In warcraft 3 too hydras got no ears. But in many other places , they been made more dragon like.
Is it just me or the Mummy seems absolutely JACKED ?
Tough ass mummy. Well fed inside the coffin

Well that's possible. Same as bull minotaur
Those anubites and automatons look sick!~
In the beta leak we can also see manticores! And in the trailer there are also fire giants and sphinxes
Not gonna lie, if you gonna do the bell button and subscribe you might as well do it this way! I had a good laugh seeing Prometheus holding it like a Christmas bell all excited.
i laughed too after making it lol. Glad you liked it.

What is the minotaur doing there? 🤨🤨
Indeed ! A bull around cows is sus 😣🤭
Checking out the ladies
I hope it’s Sobek instead of Hathor when getting the Petsuchos
they wont be making any changes there.
@@marjiman_rtswell that’s suck. That’s my only complaint for the Egyptian pantheon since 15 years ago. Laser croc myth unit for the croc god
@@bryan-7997myb it is for balance idk. I am not much updated with current patches. Maybe it's already being done.

Oh man Gaia get Groot Treatment. I like old model of her😢
She is fruit
Ngl the Prometheans design looks way too simple, it doesnt even resemble the OG
they spent less money on titans
0:26 Why is the Minotaur socializing with the cows???
Is he like a guard dog?
friendzoned loser bull
The Wadjet's new wings look _so majestic and beautiful!_ 😍
Gods, they're actually my least favorite Egyptian myth unit, but Retold might just change my mind!
Lol I thought they are a bit over colored. Cool to see someone likes the design
@@marjiman_rts _Oh, I am absolutelly _*_fascinated_*_ by their new design!_ 😍 Was never a fan of the original "ugly monster" design, so this was very much welcome!

Retold so far has been a mixed bag of good and bad ideas in terms of design.
Yea nothing is perfect. Especially when you have alternatives.
New laser crocs got some crazy animation. Check it out
I don't think that is Kronos. I think that is the Athlantean titan.
You can also see the cyclops with the greek titan.
yea but not so clear. I also ignored Pegasus, fire giants, medusa.
@@marjiman_rts Ok. Now Minotaurs are as tall as cyclops. WTF.
yep i noticed that too. Maybe its just the camera angle. Gotta wait for new clip to confirm
@@marjiman_rts Thank you!
@@marjiman_rts And the centaurs.
Minotaur looks much better with boots. Much better
hydra with 1 head lol
How many kills till hydra grows another head?
@@marjiman_rts i think 1 head spawns 2
Some of these are pretty weird, I think. With the exceptions of H. Giants and Behemots, the atlantean models seem poorly done to me. A bit to childish and simple.
I agree to some extent.
It's not giving the mythical feel.
Automatons look like robo cop soldiers. Promothean lacks the hideousness. Argus looks okay.
prometheus so big?
Was always big
Is the Roc a transort or no?
Yes. Roc is a transport.
@@marjiman_rts In the original, it is. In the remake, it is not. Are you sure this brand new retold that it is?
