Nostalgia hits hard with this one... the voice lines, the music, the campaign. What a game!
Prostagma
I can't believe he missed AoM. This and Dawn of War were the best in early 2000s, special units having unique attacks was epic feature back then
One of my earliest memories as a kid period was from this game lol
Oh my god, this is the game of my childhood I still play to this day
We would quote the units with my brother all the time. “Prostagma? Vulome”
Bartos
Esto
I S V O L I !
Etimos!
I literally quoted this to myself lol, Skipan?
My favorite Age game to this day.
Same. It was so good.
This game is incredible! Please play the campaign, you'll love it as an RTS enjoyer.
yes, the variety of challenges is great. Along with WC3+TFT it was my favorite RTS campaign.
Honestly the best RTS Campaign from a non Blizzard Game
@@shin9raom is better rts then any of other game, no comparison to blizzard rts!
Better to play retold now
man this game is a treasure. it was so sad that it didn't do great like the other games but it released i believe only a few months after warcraft 3 which was so damn innovative for the time. this game was a loved and passionately made game that was held back due to the tech of the time. this and warcraft 3 and command and conquer yuris revenge were my 3 golden staples even more than aoe.
Age of Mythology is definitely an unsung masterpiece and was ahead of its time in many ways. I can only hope the remake lives up to it.
Now this is the thumbnail to uncurse the Grubby Witch Doctor thumbnail.
the "LOOK AT IT GO!" one?
oh BROTHER! this is a PROSTAGMA MOMENT
I remember it was my favorite RTS singleplayer campaign along with Warcraft 3 + Frozen Throne. Soundtrack is so memorable.
Couple pieces of info (based on what I remember):
- Houses max out and only way to get more pop is to build town centers which can only be built on areas with foundations for them
- AOM uses a rock, paper, scissors method for combat with infantry gaining bonus over calvary, calvary gaining bonuses over archers, and archers getting bonuses over infantry, heroes do more damage to myth and take less damage from myth. Myth abilities don't work on them either as well
- You get favor differently based on the type of unit which is used for myth units. The Norse is very different and is closer to the zerg of the game with cheap units who use infantry to build which can mean quick expansion to someone's base and they get favor from attacking.
- Heroes are different by race with Greek having limited units but highly powerful, Egyptians using priests which are unlimited, Norse have an unlimited hero which gains more favor on attacks, and Atlanteans being able to spend favor to turn any human into a hero
- Dwarfs gather from gold quicker than humans (only Norse)
- When gather food, the source determines speed of gathering: Hunting > Herd creatures > Bushes > Farming
finally you play my favorite game!! there are some really good players on the ladder still to this day so i hope you try multiplayer its a bunch of fun, the meta is really unique because of myth units and god powers
omg Grubby ! this brought back soo many memories for me . AOM was my first ever pc game . i still remember trying to kill every enemy ai troop just to win a campaign mission , since i didnt knew english well at the time of playing this game ( i was 5 and english is not my 1st language) . Thank you for bringing back those beautiful memories.
Vulome, Prostagma, Leje, Etimos, Metalefs, Isvoli, Malista :D
Omg, I still play this game to this day. One of my all-time favorites. 10/10 game. I am glad you discovered it!
very excited for Refo-, oh dammit, almost invoked the wrath of Bobby Kotick right there. I mean, I'm so very excited for Retold! Can't wait!
This game
Aoe3 is another completely underrated banger that gets overlooked too. It was way ahead of its time with the graphics and physics, I think it wasn’t as popular due to the home city/card shipment mechanic. It’s definitely worth checking out too.
Yeah plus you had to grind to unlock cards which made it difficult to play competitive. Glad DE got rid off that.
This was so great to see! Hope you want to play more, I would love to follow your journey through this amazing game
This is gonna be a great series.
Battle for Middle-Eart II next please! :)
oh man! back in 2006 we used to skip classes at high school in the morning and going to an internet cafe playing AoM and unreal tournament lan. golden time of gaming! absolute masterpiece of a game of that era! hope you enjoy it!
Ran into this game by accident around 2007ish, instantly addicted to it at the time.
mannn i still say "prostagma" to myself all the time when toiling. this one hits me in the feels
Duuude I love this game so much ! Im so happy to see you play it and watch you figure it out by yourself, its so fun 😊
"I dont want government oversight [on my hotkeys]" 😂😂
No way, my childhood game!
I still remember the intro song to the expansion I think. Goes something like “tor-tillos” (not sure what the lyrics actually is but that stuck with me)
It's so good to see you play more games Grubby, thanks for uploading them here on YT as well!
Would you consider trying Battle for Middle Earth 2? I don't know if you've ever seen it, but since you love both RTS games and LOTR, seems to me like you probably may like it :)
One of my favorite games of all time! Thanks for trying it out. Please bring more if possible :)
i was so addicted to this game when i was in grade school love seeing it again good content right here
Crazy. When this game dropped and I picked it up, I was in heaven. Age of Empires meets fantasy. Such great memories with it.
Retold officially coming out this year, hell yeah.
So happy to see people playing age of mythology again. I hope it gets really popular with the release of the remaster!
My first rts ever second was warcraft 3 love them both , still remember our first game me and my 2 friend rush each others with peasents and they all died to towncenter arrows for 40 mnt
Thumbnail goes hard AF
This video convinced me to buy and play this and the remake later this year now.
The music, the voice lines, the visuals. It’s all incredible! Wow.
I love Age 2 but this looks even more fun!!!
Brooooo this game pops in my head like twice a year and I could never think of the name of it! thank you!
u always bringing memories back bro thx, what a great game.
the story of arkantos was so fun, its been ages, happy reborn is coming out soon!
8:10 The symphony begins
The cutscenes for the game launch in a different window haha that's why the cinematic didn't work launching from the game. It's by far one of the best games imo though. It launching when ancient myths were starting to pop off with Percy Jackson coming out a few years later and then we had the Movie Troy as well etc there was a fascination with myth I recall.
Oh my childhood, I used to have screenshots from the opening cinematic as my school laptop background in middle school. Me and all my friends would stay after school to play this together at the gaming club. Such fun times
AOM was my jam back then, played it more than AOE2 and had a lot of fun in the map editor. I miss those times.
Nothing but love for this game. Been playing it for many, many years online. Imo it's not that mechanical but rather decision heavy. That's one of the aspects I like, you don't need 300 APM to get stuff done. It's quite chill.
I remember asking Grubby about playing this game in chat. That time he didnt saw my question. Now I know the answer. Glad you played it!
I am playing this game to this day still
My favorite strategy game of all time
Edit: You will love how insanely challenging the altlantian campaign is on titan difficulty
Titan diffiiculty doesnt apply to the older campaigns though. Its literally just hard mode anyways. But you feel it on the new altantian campaign brutally
The second campaign mission "atlanstis reborn" is the hardest thing you can overcome in this game (on titan difficulty)
awesome game just bought it few years back and replaying it , chilhood memories
I grew up playing this game and AoE. This is an unbelievably nostalgic game. I had kinda forgotten about it, but hearing about the update coming got me excited like no other game can.
Can't wait to spam Hersirs and summon endless giants!
blast from the past indeed, great video :)
This surprised me, but makes a lot of sense.
This is my most played game I think (if not League by now), from age 8 to 28. I also liked AoE but didn't know much English at age 5 so AoM later was THE RTS for me.
Your first time was a bit different from my first time :D
wow we really have similar experiences !!!
Excited for AoM Retold!
omg Grubby playing Age of Mythology! You should definitely check out the custom maps here too. We have a pretty vibrant custom content scene.
Wow thank you so much Grubby making me remember how blissful my childhood 😭
Thank you for this! Childhood incarnated for me.
Grubby play my childhood game I don't believe this 🥰🥰 I'ma happy now
I love this game and for sure love the Age of Mythology: The Titans.
Such amazing game, please try to do all campaign of the 2. The DLC is great
Absolutely loved watching you play Age of Mythology, Grubby!
Bravo Grubby,took me way back.
Its a masterpiece.
In order for the gamespeed to run at it's normal. V-sync, must be enabled, as too high FPS makes the game run too fast. :)
Oh my god i loved this game. One of the best single players in strategies EVER.
This is indeed a gem from the past
OH MY GODS, yeas! Love this game, such nostalgia
I was thinking to download this game today! Great memories
If you go to settings you can use the option to unlock camera and then you can zoom out way more
Omg the nostalgia
This is actually my favorite game of all time; I love its ridiculous and over-the-top campaign. It's just so fun and janky and ridiculous. PROSTAGMA?
Age of Mythology was my goddamn childhood. Especially as a Greek I remember laughing my ass of with some of the pronounciations.
i must say for someone so into rts and exploring all clicking mechanics and go crazy about some hotkeys u have no vision of the blinking rings on ur mini map in the first mission :D :D
Grew up with this alongside Empire Earth and Warcraft 3! Highly Recommend you check out Empire Earth at some point too! Cant wait for the remaster of AoM!
I see Age of Mythology, I like ! The memories are real and awesome !
One time I got very titled at a friend of mine in Dawn of War.
I surreptitiously plugged in a spare USB keyboard and just started tapping delete.
No confirmation, hilarious.
now this was a childhood game
this was my favorite game as a kid :)
Awesome game and excellent music, especially fun naming of the songs in this OST, you should check them out.
damn thanks for playing this
dude i just replayed this recently.. waiting on the remaster!
In the original game it was Greek, Egyptian and Norse. The expansion add the Atlanteans and the Titans. The Chinese were added a few years back with the first expansion in like 15 years by a new team. They were the ones who cleaned up the interface for modern computers. The Chinese were never great and the campaign was below the others with no voices even.
It’s a great game. Like aoe2 it’s got a couple rough edges to the unit movement so you feel like a general rather than a god. Aoe4 sometimes makes me feel more like a god with instant attack firing and 100% accuracy, rather than say StarCraft which has 100% accuracy but in projectiles that are expected to be near instance so it feels fine. StarCraft also has random attack delays implemented which make the game feel less sterile. Hope you enjoy the game. Aced every class I had on “classics” because of this game
You really need to play tha campaign. It's really well made and clearly a labor of love. Oh and the music in this game is banging.
this game was sick, fond memories
I've never played age of empires in like over 15 years, I only played just a little bit when I was like 8 but I've replayed age of mythology forever and I can tell you that age of mythologyof the GOAT
bro im so happy right now this is one of the best games of all time
its so funny as a greek hearing the characters talk xD
I remember this game hell yes its so good
One of the best games. Looking for more content
*Stronghold Crusader* and *Command & Conquer: Generals* were my childhood games
Imo AoM's biggest problem was that it came out at nearly the same time as Warcraft 3. I mean, WC3 came out in July and AoM in October so by the time AoM came out, everyone was basically just playing WC3.
My favourite RTS of all time. The music specially, is still wonderful and masterful.
Yao? Yerrvil. Shamfigt?
Great game. I played so much LAN pvp with my siblings. Miss the LoL content tho!
PS: "Goatunheim" is the best god power.
Yes, now this is the Game!!
Ah, a brilliant RTS. Loved this game for a long time (though not *quite* as much as warcraft 3.) It has a great campaign. (The expansion campaign is *brutally* hard on Titan, hope you enjoy the game enough to get that far and give it a go sometime. ;) )
Can't wait to see how Retold will look like. 🤞
I still smash this game, I can’t wait for the new one! Nice to see you playing it.
There is a remaster coming soon for this one!
AOM was awesome. One of the best RTS games of all time and unfortunately was largely forgotten. Personally I liked it a lot more than AOE.
Now this, this is good content
In DoW if you spam a attack your units will sometimes not attack as I found the game bugs. And they sometimes stagger turn
For a moment, I thought this was a Smite video, lol
This game is sooooo good! One of my favourites
AOM retold is going to be released in 2024.
YES!!! Please do play it!!!
Prostagma? Vulome. Lege.
