I don't mind the new Automatons tbh. Them being more clearly robots instead of just living metal statues fits since Talos exists in Greek Mythology too. For reference, he's a massive automaton made of Bronze and is literally powered by God Blood. It would be pretty cool if they confirm that, instead of God Blood, it was Titan Blood giving these automatons life
You know quite a bit. Yea, they were controlled by Titan blood, running through them. Hence they posed as enemy in campaign. New automatons look great. Machine like, just as they should
@@aldrichfurtal2596 its a mythical lion with a fearsome roar. Its mane has a color pattern but in retold, they removed the design and painted it plane.
Great stuff man! If you need more AoM Retold related content, I just released a new Mod called "Norse Retold" on Steam. It introduces the new Norse Building (Viking Hall), Spearman (Bondi) and the new Hero (Jomsviking) from the Retold footage we have to Aom EE ;)
@@marjiman_rts of course im not sure. We only know about the visuals currently. Although Bondi was in the Alpha/Beta of AoM already so I didnt invent his stats.
@@marjiman_rts much appreciated! Sadly the new stuff wont be available in campaign, u can use the mod in Random maps tho. I plan on adding a bit more to the mod soon and who knows, I might make a short scenario where you need to use the new stuff :)
@@marjiman_rts I think you misunderstood my comment.. haha. Well it’s half human, half bull, the body of a Minotaur is human not animal. But this one is more animal like (fur) than human (furless) Although in Greek myth I think it doesn’t state which part is more human but the wiki of a Minotaur says the body and only the tail/head is bull, like I mentioned above. Which is why the old model has human feet and body, while this new model doesn’t really have human like parts at all...
Not sure if it will change after playing it myself, but from the photos the units really seem to loose their identity to me. They look way less stylish and more genetic
Just better graphics isn't just better graphics. What's gameplay? Age of empires will be played the same way for coming 100 generations. I faced so many questions like these. Gameplay cannot change. Unless you make aom a third person shooter. So yes , new graphics. But new graphics carry new animations. Or let's just say, better animations. And that itself changes gameplay experience. Most of the time. People don't even know what decides a game experience. And most of the time graphics and animations do it. Because what's the difference in aoe 1 and aom? Graphics and animations ofcourse. Gameplay is pretty similar for both.
@marjiman_rts aoe1 and aom are different games. By gameplay, I mean scenarios, different and improved units, better AI. Basically, more. I think how in aoe, the more villies are in the tc or towers, the more arrows the tc or towers shoot.
I think that minotaur and promethean are unproportionally large compared to human units. It looks really strange to me that minotaur is twice as high as human. I can't imagine how this tall new version is performing its special attack.
@@marjiman_rts I know they were bigger, that's ok. I just think they are too big here. I would expect something like 30% bigger than human. After all, a Minotaur is described as a beast with a human body and bull's head, born to a human mother. But here it seems they are twice as high. As for Prometheans, I think they are completely made up unit, but inspired by myth of Prometheus creating first humans from clay. In AoM Prometheans are supposed to be something like Prometheus' first attempt at creating humans, so I personally would expect roughly a similar size to humans.
? New mummy is more badass and buff looking which makes it at least look a lot stronger and more like a myth age unit which in my opinion wasn’t the case before. Avenger is basically the same just a glow up don’t know what you can complain here objectively speaking lol
@@klavicus2276 I prefer the mummy loking thinner and taller. And the new avenger looks more funny, I prefer the old with darker colours. And there is not an objective view of this since they are desings and you can like them as they are or not. Im not saying that they are ugly. But I prefer them like before.
its a pc game. But there are some apps that can run the game on android. but it would still not be easy to play at all. So i would recommend you, not to waste your time.

Help me reach ❤500 subs❤ before retold drops.
Dude did Best retold coverage. Even edits the models before sharing. Great job man
Running out of content. No new news.

Machine like, just as they should
Wadjets probably got the biggest glow-up out of every myth unit. They got buffed, too, apparently they can fly now.
they can't fly because that would be like starcraft 2 orcale harass on villagers XD
If only we could get some multiplayer clip
Those edits on titans man.❤
The only one out of these I don't vibe with is the Nemean Lion. It somehow feels more basic than the original 💀
Absolutely.Nemean lion feels like a normal lion with dyed hair 😂😂😂
True
The Nemean Lion was just a Lion I guess
@@aldrichfurtal2596 its a mythical lion with a fearsome roar. Its mane has a color pattern but in retold, they removed the design and painted it plane.
Yea i agree, maybe the upgrades might change it? I know the Sphinx will change for each upgrade, so will others.
Do you secretly work with devs? 😅
GJ ,thank you! Amazing video!
Glad you liked it man
I still think they should name Medusa just gorgon and make a hero version named Medusa
But she wouldn't fit in lore like that. Heroes are lore wise.
I agree!
It's a little funny, you can tell which monsters the art team liked best from the original, as some are 1 to 1 with the original design-wise.
also depends on how much they spent on designs. but yea, some are loved more
Love the Wadjet, but how do you know whose team its on? SO MANY COLORS.
Hmm. That's an interesting situation 😂😂😂
The color in the middle and tail.
Very good comparison i liked a lot 😊
Glad you liked it :)
Good video man, keep it up!
glad you liked it
Hmm, not sure if it’s the screenshot or not, but to me, the new fire giant doesn’t look as…firery as the old model
They do lack in flames as compared to old ones but, they got a better structure.
It could be based on upgrades? Maybe it starts out as the original (left side) and each upgrade changes the look, go from fire to more molten.
ONLY A FEW MONTHS TILL AGE OF MYHTOLOGY RETOLD RELEASES ON SEPTEMBER 4TH WOOHOO SO MANY GREAT AND WONDERFUL GAMES TO PLAY THIS YEAR :) WOOHOO
Haha. The excitement 😁
Yes this year has wonderful games. ❤️
sick!!
:)
cool
Great stuff man!

i checked the screenshots. so, you sure about unit names and what they counter is same in retold?
@@marjiman_rts of course im not sure. We only know about the visuals currently. Although Bondi was in the Alpha/Beta of AoM already so I didnt invent his stats.
I really liked the hall design and unit designs looked decent too.
I will upload a short and possibly play them in a campaign. Good work mate
@@marjiman_rts much appreciated! Sadly the new stuff wont be available in campaign, u can use the mod in Random maps tho.
I plan on adding a bit more to the mod soon and who knows, I might make a short scenario where you need to use the new stuff :)
It actually worked in a custom campaign
Was that prometheus or Kronos in the retold version?
Promotheus
Can you do the comparison between the human units?
Sure if I get enough of them. Gotta check how many of them available and quality matters too. 👍
Its interesting to see that they've changed the minotaur from human body to now animalistic style, I like the change either way but I wonder why. :D
cuz he is a bull. so makes sense
@@marjiman_rts I think you misunderstood my comment.. haha. Well it’s half human, half bull, the body of a Minotaur is human not animal.

True. But this one gets the personality of minotaur correct. A hot headed killer bull
@@marjiman_rts Exactly! That’s why I’m liking it either way!! 😁
Vadjets soo cool now
Not sure if it will change after playing it myself, but from the photos the units really seem to loose their identity to me. They look way less stylish and more genetic
Dnt be so sure until we see all of it
Is it just me or do the new units look more slouched and less jacked than old ones?
some of them only. Colossus looks bigger, minotaur etc. Zoom level also makes difference in appearance
Remastering retold in classic 😊 well done.
Make the norse one too.
I don't get it. Is retold just better graphics but the same game play?
Just better graphics isn't just better graphics.

Using God powers more than once is a huge gameplay changr@@averykleon

I know they are reworking the Chinese dlc, thank god. haha Not too sure with the other civs though.

I think that minotaur and promethean are unproportionally large compared to human units. It looks really strange to me that minotaur is twice as high as human. I can't imagine how this tall new version is performing its special attack.
minotaur were bigger than humans. its accurate. but promethean looks quite a bit taller. Don't know about lore accuracy though.
Minotaurs are taller
@@marjiman_rts I know they were bigger, that's ok. I just think they are too big here. I would expect something like 30% bigger than human. After all, a Minotaur is described as a beast with a human body and bull's head, born to a human mother. But here it seems they are twice as high.

Minotaur size is great. May e they look very tall here but you will see they fit well in game.
Max number of real players in multiplayer mode?
4vs4. max.
The old mummy and avenger are better. But I love most of the others. Some of them are the same.
I like new mummy. Looks alpha zombie
? New mummy is more badass and buff looking which makes it at least look a lot stronger and more like a myth age unit which in my opinion wasn’t the case before. Avenger is basically the same just a glow up don’t know what you can complain here objectively speaking lol

Greek titan where?
lol yea. i put Prometheus in its place and forgot. i had the clip ready. Never mind.
btw kronos model it's online
it is. But i didn't find a good quality picture.
Can you play this on Android?
its a pc game. But there are some apps that can run the game on android. but it would still not be easy to play at all. So i would recommend you, not to waste your time.
