- I personally feel that the old voices were good
Athena's voice is too harsh compared to the old soft one
never got to hear Arkantos say prostagma in this gameplay but most probably all the voice artists are different as well
and the AI also give Lord's mobile type vibes
Let us know what you feel about this
Thanks for watching!!! - เกม
Concerning the voice lines, if anyone has seen animated show production reels, the animators will often read out the dialogue and record it to get the pacing right, then the professional VAs voice it once the animations are done or mostly done (or so I've heard, I'm also not an expert). For examples just look at some of the unfinished Clone Wars TV show footage and you'll hear what is very much not Obi-Wan's voice when he speaks. In this video, Athena is literally just one of the Devs mimicking a more feminine voice, and you can really hear it in one of the 'Soldiers' dialogue, he's literally recording it on a gaming headset microphone.
Thanks for your insight ❤️
Voice lines are most likely placeholders and not the final audio. They probably did this so that if this content leaks, it wouldn't entirely ruin it for everyone.
Makes sense!
More plausible they turned Athena into a boy
@@le4-677 everything was done well just to ruin it with the voice😓
Eh, yall are just grasping at straws. I'm preparing for the "Warcraft 3. Reforged" experience.
@@xenon333 People still imagine that Reforged was bad?
damn I hope these are just placeholder voices
Everyone is hoping for the same 🤞
I miss the "feedback" from the soldiers when Arkantos calls to them
Well they should not miss that out, that's a small but a significant thing to miss
Theory - could this level be based on the opening cutscene from the OG game which is Arkantos' dream. Perhaps this will be the first stage / tutorial in Retold.
I don't think this will be included in the main game... yes it could be a tutorial nonetheless
Minotaur having such a badass lines, also lightning have too much area
Check on the Egyptians too 👀❣️
i can't wait for this game to come out. I bought a new gaming laptop through work for it..
Same here 😁
😅
❣️❣️
nostalgia at max lvl
Indeed 😌
I miss the white light when the meteors strike
😂 that's a rather something odd to miss 😅
This feels like when Sacred got a Sacred 2
Haven't really tried yet 😅
I’m worried we won’t hear the same iconic soundtrack from the original
They said all the soundtracks will be redone so rest assured
They might add some but I doubt they'll remove any
The gameplay looks so great. They reworked the hp of the units? I dont remember odysseus having 1300 hp
Indeed! I recall something around 525 at Mythic age after full upgrades...
I know the lightning bolt of zeus was a bit basic but giving him the meteor ability instead feels off. He should have gotten the lightning storm ability since he is the god of thunder and lightning
I think that's just for testing purposes... We won't see it in the campaign as such... It will remain to the Egyptians but maybe included in the last campaign with the fight with the Poseidon's statue
@@Neonathann Agreed, most probably a Beta thing. Also in the tutorial of the original game you get the meteor strike as well
getting black and white 2 vibes from this
😂😂
oh my god that pathfinding looks so much better lol
rip castle blood tho :/
Castle blood? 🤔
@@Neonathann it’s one of the top scenarios, but it relies on the current pathfinding where units can block eachother. It looks like units can walk past eachother in retold, which is good, but breaks CBA
im realling hoping the voices are placeholders... if they bring this with shitty voice actors... theres gonna be a riot among the fan and the communities
Yes! So much effort after this long of a wait only to ruin because of this level of negligence 😐
No way these VO's are not placeholders
If they are it'll ruin the feel for most
The UI needs update 😐
And Athena's voice is harsh compared to the old one... I liked the old one...
Tell me what you guys feel about this!
The old one was a female talking, this new one is ....
@@warr39 😂
Voice lines and UI finalization are some of the last things fully implemented in a game.
@@SolitaryLark the voice of Athena feels similar to the one who announced the release of AOM Retold this year with the introduction to three characters on 23rd of Feb her name was I guess Melinda Rose 🤔
@@Neonathann yes likely a dev who volunteered rather then final voice actor. It’s is fairly common practice.
nice!
❤️❤️
Nice ❤
❤️❤️
it's sad to know that hydrae still present as apatosaurus.
❣️❣️
The change of making the godpowers getting recharged is not a good one.
It will make the game way too easy.
Interval of recharge seems way too short as well.
They would probably nerf the God powers a bit to even out their recharge thing... I guess
No corpse decay, no installation
That would be cool ngl
Anyone knows if network multiplayer will be available? Will I be able to play with my friends from overseas?
Most probably yes!
What is this mobile phone tier interface
it's over
I hope it's just temporary... They would at least if not better keep it in par with its other Age of series games
How did you get to do this ?
Do what? 🤔
@@Neonathann play the beta obviously
Those are the developers testing their game... I just somehow found the clip surfacing somewhere and shared for you guys😊
but if I get a chance to put my hands on it I'd be happy
If there's a beta version to test then I'd surely bring it to you guys as well ❣️
@@ANI-DEEZYso obviously not
Prostagma?
Maista
Have a lot to say so bear with me here:
The negatives -
1. While the artstyle looks good and is very true to the original in its look, it seems just a tad "busier"(?) if that makes sense. I just don't get the same sense of visual clarity here. However I'd have to be more hands-on with it to say for sure so take this with a grain of salt
2. I dunno how to feel about the voice acting. It does sound likey they actually did bring back some of the old VAs or to reprise their roles and kept old voice lines unchanged which is nice, buta good chunk sounds different for better and for worse based on what I could discern. The unit sounds still sound great I'll admit.
But, Athena is the most obvious example of where it just sounds off...I get that this is beta footage but she sounds so *bored*
Like, I dunno whether to blame the voice direction or if its just a placeholder (I hope to GOD), but she just sounds like she's hamming it in. Which makes me worried about the rest of the voice acting in the campaign, to the point where I almost hope they don't change the campaign too much so that we can switch to the old ones just in case
3. This isn't really a nitpick, but it is something I have mixed feelings on: *Kronos' redesign*
The old one, I'll be honest, looked a lot cooler. He looked almost like a demon straight out of hell with how visually distinct he was from every other Titan. He had a straight posture, making him look taller than virtually any other unit in the game, which fits him well as he was basically the overarching antagonist of the entire story. Making him literally and figuratively *loom* over the player
It also sold that, whereas the other Titans were mindless forces of destruction, Kronos had actual intelligence to go with his awesome might.
However, whereas the old one *looked cooler* visually, this new design is a bit more visually *interesting*
There's just a lot more to chew on.
For one, I do like that now he looks a lot more like the statues that depict him on the Atlantean Town Centers and Temples.
Him being made of stone with cracks all over and energy seemingly pulsating out of him, also makes a touch more sense with the idea that he was cut up and scattered across Tartarus by Zeus and the other gods to prevent him from reforming.
The chains are also a nice detail, as it harkens back to the original opening cinematic where Kronos is being held back by chains.
But at the same time, I feel like they could have done a better job of making him more distinct from the other Titans and getting across that he is supposed to be their *king*
Like, maybe incorporate the fact that he is also an aspect of *Time* , something the original game didn't communicate well with his design either. I mean, come on, Hades II did an amazing job with Kronos/Chronos, so when comparing the two this just feels underwhelming.
If you were to show me this Kronos design out of context I would assume its some sort of new Golem unit or smth, not the *King of the Titans* and the overarching villain of the entire game.
Again, mixed feelings on it. Prometheus and Gaia look GREAT, but as far as the unique Titans are concerned, Kronos is the only one who arguably got a *downgrade*
The positives -
1. The sound design is SUPERB
All the classic sound effects are here in full force, with some new ones to accompany them. I just hope they don't go too ham with the latter to the point it gets distracting.
2. Reusable God Powers
This is a change we were alredy aware of and its great. The problem with God Powers was that, while they were cool, you were always afraid to use them out of fear that you might need them later.
Having them mostly no longer be a one time thing shakes up the game a LOT. It means that you can plan around when your opponent uses God Powers and it removes the staleness of the late game where you and your opponent/s are just playing rock-paper-scissors to see who dies first to each other's attacks and counterattacks.
Here they seem to be only be reusable after you destroy a temple, like the final mission of the original campaign, which I do wonder if it will be a mechanic in the final game or if its just how it works for this specific instance.
3. While I do miss the visual style of the old HUD, I do think this still looks great. Its clean, simple and easy to read important information.
4. Despite the slight change in artstyle, everything still looks authentic to the original. Which does make me excited to see the various changes they teased (Titans can supposedly walk over bodies of water for instance)
I for one would love to see buffs to less impressive/undercooked units like the Automatons , Fenrir and Trolls.
Don't tell me you typed all of that 🫡
I read (red) all of what you said...
Hope they try to keep the VAs as original as possible.
I do agree on the Kronos thing... He should really look more majestic than the others... and I think he will... Comparing to the other Titans this one really looked really underworked...
No special attacks were also seen in the gameplay like the ones with the Egyptian Titan that slam shockwave stuff... You get it...
Another thing I want them to prioritise is the cut scenes... That's where the real nostalgia lies... Chiron's death... Arkantos's dreams... Athena's guidance... Kamos's death... and so many more... I wish they do it justice
Rest I believe that the age team created such a masterpiece 20+ years ago so they will do good will all the advancements and techs of today 😄
Ui element not looking good
It will... Trust the process 🗿
i was waiting so long to play this game. but character voices are very bad. lost of hpes and broken heart. give our old voices BACK!!!
Let's hope for the best 🤞
Not playing an RTS over voices? Majoring in the minor
Is this clash of Clans or Age of Mythology? … i dont Like it. Looks Like it is for Little Kids.
They should improve the UI after all it's all marketing they won't like to throw away all the efforts for nothing
Cap
Meaning?
not digging athena's voice
We should communicate our thoughts to the AoM team via their social media handles regarding our disappointments or else they're never gonna know 😕
@@Neonathann Twitter's the best place prolly but I don't use it, we should get some beta testing, perhaps some regular aom streamers are getting it but not sure, just so we can actually see something that might give us some idea.
I will be honest, she sounds like a Cartoon Friendly character that tells you what you need to do, instead of being the calm and wise Athena we all are familiar with
Athena's voice lines...cringe.
Absolutely 🤢
Looking terrible
Indeed
