I have a very similar story.. played it 2 decades back, skipped the extended edition and am having an amazing time now! Keep posting more stuff.. you got yourself a new subscriber 😊
I only played age of mythology a bit when I was younger , I was more of an age of empires addict 😂 But just got this on gamepass and I looove it!! Only had a few games but really enjoyed playing it!
I’m so excited for this remake. I remember playing the original as a cd rom game back on parents old computer. It was so much fun. I’d never played a game like this in my entire life, and it was amazing. I still play the original on steam. I hope the remake coming out in like three days is just as great.
I'm same as you, had a love affair with this game since 2002. Particularly in the period between 2002 and 2005 i played a crazy amount, but dipped back in to online play on and off every few years since. I'm enjoying the new one; only played online and it seems more fun. They have cut out a lot of the annoying bs that was in original. Definitely not perfect I agree, but alot better than I was expecting after the extended edition disaster.
If they added a system where you can take control of the hero unit in yhird person that play like a discount musou game, I'll consider that a remake. On top of my head i can only think of is kingdom under fire 2 or kunitsu-gami.
What is the time+money difference between how much time is needed to make this, and new AoM in similar engine like AoM Extended, no need for better graphic etc, just give more content of same quality as 20 years ago. Beh, as a lifelong fan, I will skip this one and start a new old custom game vs 3/4 hard bots
Good video, but I'm not sure why you expected more than these changes in the form of a remaster, as the first three Age of Empires games had the same treatment prior to this.
It is. Warcraft 3 was one of the OGs of the genre, which inspired Age of Empires and Age of Mythology after that. So they have very much in common also being quite unique
@@Ballistic-vn6em I looked into it. While they apparently are redoing some aspects of the game, it's actually the same engine that the original Age of Mythology was made with.
@Jeremy9697 sure but that wasnt the point of what im saying. The point is that he finds it weird that its not the default setting when its literally never the default for any reputable RTS. Its simply not optimal. You cant waste 4 highly accessible keys on camera movement when you can do that with the mouse. Well you can but its highly ineffective.

The Chinese DLC in the Extended Edition was terrible. That is why they redo the entire DLC.
From what i heard, the dlc was originally made by a different team right?
@@HEADASSLOOKINGAHHH I even heard it was originally a mod.
❤Thank you for playing and reviewing the game!
Thank you for making it ❤

I really appreciate your reviews, bro! We have similar taste, so usually if you like the game I will as well. :)

It is
"which I never player which I never played..."
?
Thank you for this review ! I have so many good memories on this game, your video convinces me even more to buy it :)
Cool video.
As someone who misses AoM original, I love the AoM Retold version.

"For the first time it allows you to have multiple titans"
My man, TITANOMACHY lol :D
Should have added “without cheat codes” 😂
My titan army shale rule
I cant wait to play the game cause im big fan of age of empires games
AoM: ReSOLD
lol
Thank you, nice review.
anyone knows when the expansions will come out?

Yeah but why? Why would you want the feature that would be utterly useless?!
they would keep on remaking cause games like this live on peoples heart forever i wish i could play this game on macbook
Nvidia Geforce now
I burnt my fingers (due to friction) using the trackpad on my laptop playing this game... twice!!!
a dlc that would bring some Roman gods into the game there are good that have no greek origin in roman religion

Hi..never played this as a kid but i love wc3..is gameplay similar?

Is there an option for blood and gore? like in Total War series.
You want to have it, or NOT have it?
Can I still get o Canada o Canada? Iykyk
Can I still get the canadian bear?
You just unlocked a core memory for me 😂
tanx 4 the rev
I''d call it 'remaster' rather 'remake'.
How is it a "remaster" if it's a different engine? The game was remade, therefore it's a remake.
@Ballistic-vn6em he said “I’d call it”, he didn't say “it is”. Big difference
@@Ballistic-vn6em If the feeling of the game doesn't have a fundamental shift, it's more of a remaster.
@@googlewolly I agree with this. We don't care if it's remade on a new game engine. Only the graphics have changed so it is a remaster.
@@Ballistic-vn6em I looked into it. While they apparently are redoing some aspects of the game, it's actually the same engine that the original Age of Mythology was made with.
I play on a 60 inch tv HD
I'm glad they didn't spend time revamping the campaign. I hate campaigns.
Waw that's a terrible review. No WASD camera movement seems weird to you. Thank god thats not default, who the heck plays like that?
Me. And if that's why the review was terrible, you can kindly move on
Plenty of ppl play with wasd camera controls. There are entire reddit post on it

I completed the original and only played extended addition for maybe 40 hours. I'm gonna wait to get this if not completely ignore it.
Original and extended editions are pretty much the same. This is different
