I just hope they’re placeholders. Some devs who recorded their voice to get a sense of the pace in the animations. Hopefully, the voice actors will be different in the final release.
@@atiqbirb8352 I don’t think so, they sound pretty human to me. But we’ll see. If this was the real deal, Microsoft still has a few weeks to rework the voice parts of the game. A lot of people are displeased with the casting and overall delivery of these actors. It’s like the most complained thing I’ve heard so far from Retold.
I honestly don't vibe with the new voice acting. It feels flat and borderline directionless. Arkantos sounds almost too young. He doesn't exhibit the same level of confidence and authority as the original And Athena just sounds worse. The accent, like with Arkantos, is totally fine, but the original's soft voice really let on that she knew more than what she was letting on and that she was something beyond mortal. It just sounded more fitting for a goddess of war and wisdom.
Original had an amazing mission design and map layout, the voice acting on the original was spot on for the time and it holds up nicely even today. Original Arkantos sounds a lot, more experienced and sounds better overall, I don't really care for an accent since the og sounded better. I really hope they didn't ruin Ajax, his gruff voice was a good reason to stay on your toes when building a trojan horse back in the day.
They could've added sooo much stuff, like lip animations, or sailors rowing the ships instead of automated rows 😂😂. If you're doing a remake, you've gotta do it right. The campaign was a big part of this game, and they should respect it.
Ive noticed in the few missions ive seen thay they've redesigned them a bit, like here they've taken out your town centre so that new players don't have to worry about economy much until the second mission, and old players can't over-macro their way to victory
I feel like voice actor’s could work since I like the idea of greek accents, but I can’t tell if they actually got Greek actors and the delivery is bad.
Curious why they made atlantis an existign greek island on the map, instead of that fake island off spain in the og. Voice acting is fine, but man I will miss the old ones.
Holy crap those new voice are crunchy and flat. Idk why they didn’t just use old voices or bring back the old actors and have them re-record or something. Visually great tho so idk
@@herpderp3916 well yea I mean of course, I’m just saying that the new voices, like Athena’s are so just….ick and has no spirit. I would almost hazard to say some voices are borderline AI
Remake rules 101 don't try to fix something that doesn't need fixing. Graphics and gameplay? Yes with the hardware and software now you can. The VAs try so hard and can't match the OG Bring back the old voices!!!

One of the most popular mods will be adding back the old voice lines.
Yes…
ooof at those dialogues, kind of flat
They have accents at least

Are they ai generated?

The VAs make me sad.

@@filipvadas7602 we should be happy athena wasnt black or trans xD
That because this is still beta okay we just need to wait till is already full update
Aww im gonna miss Athena's soft and seductive voice. But thats accurate that she speaks with Greek accent.
they couldve still made it seductive, it looks like a greek girl learning English lol
Your pfp is seductive
My theory is why the voice line replacement is due to potential new campaigns (dlc) including old characters, so the voice actor change was necessary

"ΠΡΟΣΤΑΓΜΑ" these voice lines are iconic...i will never get tired of hearing them
The voice acting seems meh... Also I think the UI is worse.
They could've added sooo much stuff, like lip animations, or sailors rowing the ships instead of automated rows 😂😂.

Oh my god that voice acting is just awful, why couldn't they just have used the old voice files?
It's beta broo maybe still can be change that's why
@@aidieltaufik9954they didn’t pay some new voice actors so they could scrap their lines at the last minute
Arkantos avatar looking like some 80s American dude with slicked back hair waiting to hit the skating rink
I’m with everyone about the voice lines but can we talk about how big that kraken is? 😅
Ive noticed in the few missions ive seen thay they've redesigned them a bit, like here they've taken out your town centre so that new players don't have to worry about economy much until the second mission, and old players can't over-macro their way to victory
One other thing I notice is that the soldiers are not cheering after Arkantos :(
Nah man cutscenes look like mobile game. Why should I see them like cartoon. Previous cutscenes and normal subtitles were good
I feel like voice actor’s could work since I like the idea of greek accents, but I can’t tell if they actually got Greek actors and the delivery is bad.
Might be only me but big character portraits look really out of places and i kinda miss the old blocky look of the game more.
Athena had a sexier voice in the original.
And the kraken left a tiny red puddle of blood in the water
Curious why they made atlantis an existign greek island on the map, instead of that fake island off spain in the og. Voice acting is fine, but man I will miss the old ones.
you know what Is strange? this is how the game looked like in my ayes. :)
why not revoice all voiceline? only certain characters have new va. seems like they wanna cut cost on background characters
Because those characters won't be in the new dlc contents..
Arkantos had one of the best voices.... They should have kept it
Why are they revoicing. Definitely going to be looking for a mod to fix that. The new voices are horrible
Well.. I was ready for remake.. not for another *definitive edition*........
Why did they change the location of the Atlantis?
Is there a way to use legacy voice acting?
Someone did mention that a mod would bring back the old voices, i don't know more about it though!
@@RemVeeGaming Yes, well it would also make a lot of sense to have this option in the settings. They also announced legacy god portraits.
When the expansion THE TITANS will come out.... im waiting for it.
Can you rotate buildings when placing them?
Water looks amazing
why reshoot the Voices?????
Nostalgia merchant 😂
"Hoplites are in-fen-twee"
Holy crap those new voice are crunchy and flat. Idk why they didn’t just use old voices or bring back the old actors and have them re-record or something. Visually great tho so idk
Ajax's voice actor, Charles Rocket, sadly passed away in 2005 so they would have to recast him if they didn't use his old lines.
@@herpderp3916 well yea I mean of course, I’m just saying that the new voices, like Athena’s are so just….ick and has no spirit. I would almost hazard to say some voices are borderline AI
@@kingmarlexia Oh I agree there, their delivery is all wrong.
Should comes with new story.. why old story ????
Remake rules 101 don't try to fix something that doesn't need fixing. Graphics and gameplay? Yes with the hardware and software now you can. The VAs try so hard and can't match the OG
Bring back the old voices!!!
This is age of mythology. Not retold. Its the same.
Gaming sounds are waaaaay too loud in your game 📢🔊📢🔊
Jamir Well
WHAT DID THEY DO TO THE VOICE ACTORS!? 🤢
Wait god powers in campaign limited use?
You could use some multiple times, but some had a limit of uses i believe or would cost a lot of favor to use again
what is up with the voice acting?
Nooo Athena!! Its not your voice 😥😥😥😥
where did you take it ?
Not sure what you mean. Where did i take what?
@@RemVeeGaming i want this game now but is pre purchase and not playebel now
@@WALKERTOS There will be a stress test this weekend where you can play multiplayer on Steam even if you don't own the game!
Pls bring back old voices xD
no TC in the first mission?
Nope, seems like they removed it. So no wuv woo or o canada in the first mission(i tried it)
How is the voice acting so much worse?
The character portrait next to the subtitles looks goofy
Man what are these voices
bruh... they just went with the Russian accent because Greek is too hard for them...lol
I love age of mythology...but the current VAs suck like really bad. I hope they realize the mistake and change it.
Looks good except the voice acting is bad and the character portraits look like they were made by AI
God the new voices are baaad
The water looks incredible, voice acting is trash sadly
OMG, the voces are soooo bad!
I dont think this video is real.. More like AoM mods..
Trash i prefer the old one
Just update the damn graphics! VA in the old game was perfect...now it's trash. Better play the original...no emotion in this!
Awful voice acting should of just kept the original lines
Terrible voice acting absolutely, better be placeholders
voice actors still suck. Even AI would do a better job.
Plot twist, it is AI. Just like the god portraits 😑
