It's hard to believe this video exist.. This was how my child self imagined the campaigns to be like. And to think you've surpassed that is incredible.
@@Anraheir did you have to use the biggest map size? and how distant were the background cities from the character? or did you make them smaller so you didn't need to put them that far? your video is simply amazing, thanks for sharing
@@Anraheir thanks for the answer. Very smart way of placing everything. Another thing, the New X Editor doesn't work with the Tale of the Dragon edition of AoM right?
Santiago Molano If you're asking about the link I posted, it is legit. For some reason when I wrote that comment it sounded fishy, but I couldn't get around to make it any better
Al Kane this is beautiful. the way you put the thing together and made the world soo full of live. really capturing everything beautiful in the game. you made me drop a tear. thank you!
AOM may not be the most remarkable RTS game of his time, but it has such a beautiful atmosphere and aesthetics. Also, this cinematic is a perfect example of what you could do with the editor if you were skilled and patient enough.
Thank you. I've been using the editor for many years now, and I still discover new things every once in a while - the cinematic possibilities in Age of Mythology are endless.
This is amazing. It Captures the feel of the origin AOM campaign by following all those amazing locales and graphics, and those cheesy but effective special effects... nostalgia man, its helluva drug!
I don't know what caused the issue so I can't fix it.. apparently only mobile users experience audio problems. when I watch the video on my pc I have zero issues
1000 subscribers! Thank you all for your support! I’m driving now towards wrapping up an upcoming Egyptian cinematic. After that, be in the look out for some shorter (but still cool) cinematics. I look forward to exploring the many aspects of the game, including civilizations, god powers, units, music, and themes. Be safe during the quarantine.
@@mynameisasecret3826 Hehe, funny you should mention it - I've finished design and audio. Currently wrapping up the title textures. Just have to record and edit. It should be done hopefully in a few days (depending on work). Thank you for your patience :)
Holy fucking shit this is insane. Never before other than that one other video of the editor have I seen such a creative use of the tools available... Holy fucking shit I am in complete awe.
If you enjoyed watching, check out my other cinematic "Age of Mythology™: Dying to Live" right here: th-cam.com/video/rq1tfypvC0s/w-d-xo.html&lc=z225wd553pqkhvltiacdp43amxeu43tgdgjimiq54kdw03c010c
This is fantastic man! One of the best cinematics made with Age of Mythology (and with a little Nordic humor!) I can't imagine all the effort and hours it took you to create such awesome locations. Cheers!
I have no words. By this video you slammed me into my childhood, when all was simple and fair [sniffs, drops nostalgic tears] P.S. Particular respect for a "true" landscape of Atlantean metropoly, the city of channels.
OMG HOW DID I NOT FIND THIS EARLIER??? Seriously though, seeing videos like this one brings me such internal joy. Thank you for your hard work and keep it up! :D
This is what I call hard work. Making the cities so lively and I really like the way you used the titans. Just roaming around their mythologies! Keep it up! :)
Absolutely stunning animation with one of the most amazing panoramas I have ever seen done in a game engine of that time! Bravo to you this was amazing!
Wow, another incredible cinematic! Just came from the second video. So cool and as many people have already said, excellent work. Again, really capturing the scale and feel of each civilization in an amazing way. Really like how you portrayed Atlantis, similar to how it is often portrayed as an aquatic island peninsula kind of thing surrounded by several rings. Keep up the great work!
You did an awesome job in making this cinematic! Even though the game is quite old, I still want to try my hand on it and this was a major inspiration!
Yeah, I too have been flirting with that idea for a few years now. No doubt it'd be doable, but it would take much work. Despite the outdated graphics, the AOM editor can deliver some spectacular scenery (with persistence and attention to detail, of course).
This was really cool to watch! I've messed around in the cinematic editor before, and I know you can do some cool stuff with it, and this video is exactly the thing to show off just that! I really like the detail and work put into this; the only criticism is that it wasn't completely obvious to me that it was a Christmas tree he was looking for, but I'm not a Christian, and I'm also pretty unobservant, and I don't think AOM has any specially-decorated trees like that... all in all, though, super great work! was fun to watch
This has Hard work written on every single piece of it. It's Amazing! I envy your capabilities of Designing. Mostly on that Egyptian Scene, on the main road. Fantastic. Thanks for Sharing!
This is the most incredible AOM cinematic that I have ever seen, and that includes the original ones that are a part of the game. And you did it without a single word, it's mind-blowing. You should be a dev for this game. You've really made it look like the world of AOM is lived in.
Incredible piece of art, many specially made effects like the highlight when the thunder appears. The cities look awesome and look like hundreds of hours work. Impressive!
Thanks :). Using triggers, I changed the lighting from dawn to day and then back to dawn - if the transition occurs quickly enough, it looks like lightning.
amazeing cinematic..... one thing that esspecialy appealed to myself was how you hade the bustleing human shaped city scenery's......cut in by the 'untouched' wast wilderness of desserts..forests..mountens etc..where the titan progenitors of both men and gods walked ^^
Age of Mythology Retold is coming September 4, 2024 to Xbox and PC :)
I can't even imagine how it would looks like with the new graphics
That greek villager has seen some shit
He sure has a whole bunch of experience to share when he's old.XD
Its what he does when you abandon him on the corner of the map
XAAXXAAXXAXAAXXA
That's how my grandpa traveled to his school
Don't forget the horse!
It's hard to believe this video exist.. This was how my child self imagined the campaigns to be like. And to think you've surpassed that is incredible.
Legit, couldn’t put it into words better myself. This video sums up the entire campaign in my 12 year old brain
WOW those city shots are godamn amazing , makes me wish they had shots like that in the actual game haha
It's a bit tougher to do it in-game, what with lag and the visuals taking up so much space (unless the game map is loaded separately).
@@Anraheir did you have to use the biggest map size? and how distant were the background cities from the character? or did you make them smaller so you didn't need to put them that far? your video is simply amazing, thanks for sharing
@@Fulscript Large map - about a third of the map length (download the .scx files to see for yourself).
And thanks.
@@Anraheir thanks for the answer. Very smart way of placing everything. Another thing, the New X Editor doesn't work with the Tale of the Dragon edition of AoM right?
@@Fulscript Can't answer that, as I don't have Tale of the Dragon.
God damn they should have asked you to make the Chinese campaign this was a million times better than whatever shit they made.
I haven't played Tale of the Dragon, but honestly I think it needs some shaping up. The story cinematics have so much potential!

is it legit?
Santiago Molano If you're asking about the link I posted, it is legit.
For some reason when I wrote that comment it sounded fishy, but I couldn't get around to make it any better
I signed it (though I recall signing another one a while ago). Was it just a matter of money? I heard they took lots of shortcuts during development.
Thanks for the compliments, everyone! I'm glad you've enjoyed the cinematic.
+Al Kane how to cinematic?
Al Kane this is beautiful. the way you put the thing together and made the world soo full of live. really capturing everything beautiful in the game. you made me drop a tear. thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully I'll be able to have another one out this year. Stay tuned :).
Al Kane AMAZING
Al Kane I LOVED it, how long did it take you?
That was fantastic! The scenes if bustling cities were especially cool! You really did an excellent job of capturing the air of each civilization.
When i used the editor i used to make a very unrealisticly symitrical cities it was almost creepy the level of symmetry
The pig dodging the guy in 0:53... If it was intentional, its genius...
AOM may not be the most remarkable RTS game of his time, but it has such a beautiful atmosphere and aesthetics. Also, this cinematic is a perfect example of what you could do with the editor if you were skilled and patient enough.
Thank you. I've been using the editor for many years now, and I still discover new things every once in a while - the cinematic possibilities in Age of Mythology are endless.
Didn't expect an answer from you on a 3 years old video, cheers mate and keep up the good work
Hehe, thanks. I've started work on my next AOM video, so I'm checking on this one periodically.
True i only liked it because of Mythology. Greek Myths are the best
AOM needs a sequel. wee need more RTS games these days.
Theres a expansion that came out last year "tale of the dragon"
Daniel Martín N. Yes, there should be Hindu myths next
You guys should play Rise and Fall. It is one of the best RTSs ever made. (Ignore the critics!)
Jozinek or a persian one
Aztecs. Sacrifice your villagers for favor just sayin.
This machinima is amazing, I have also made this type cinematics, but never so worked. Good job.
+MetaBallStudios Thanks man.
Wow, encontre uno de tus viejos comentarios metaball jaja.
@@Ivan_Berni gracias por recordarmelo xD
I tried once but it was very hard so i quit
Pera madre mía meta ball qué haces aquí compañero. 😳
That's the best thing I've seen on youtube recently, and it really makes me want to pull out AoM again...
play it with gameranger
I have these "tendencies" after 3-4 months i suddenly want to play this game
at 3:30 the polar bear is also teleported here lol at left side of the screen
The polar bear was an allegory for the protection and favor of the gods! Or something.
@DaFaQ pRuShUnT lol you're damn right bro ;-)
@DaFaQ pRuShUnT lol you're right bro ;)
This is amazing. It Captures the feel of the origin AOM campaign by following all those amazing locales and graphics, and those cheesy but effective special effects... nostalgia man, its helluva drug!
I'd watch these cinematics any day!

I’ve been waiting for your Egyptian cinematic for almost 3 years now.
When do you think are you going to finish ??
@@mynameisasecret3826 Hehe, funny you should mention it - I've finished design and audio. Currently wrapping up the title textures. Just have to record and edit. It should be done hopefully in a few days (depending on work). Thank you for your patience :)
AOM Visions don’t mention it, I’ll gladly wait for a couple of days.
0:51
look at those troops waitting to be converted.
Hard work ...this Is amaizing
+carlos valdes Thank you. But when you love designing, the time just flies by, hehe.
Holy fucking shit this is insane. Never before other than that one other video of the editor have I seen such a creative use of the tools available... Holy fucking shit I am in complete awe.
Haha - thanks! I'm hoping to complete another one by the end of the year. Gotta love AOM.
Dude you are insane, keep doing what you're doing!
Coming next year... "Age of Mythology™: Tributary Travels (Cinematic)." This will be an Egyptian cinematic :)
Already watched (laughs in BAKA)
Timing on how units are gonna move is amazing. And the environment looks really cool

Hola soy nuevo por este juego
@@yohanylazaro2509 Pues, bienvenido.
Damn this really looks good. I love the way the cities look.
I was just talking about how this was my favorite RTS game ever like..last night. Oh how I miss it
+hawkmore With the extended edition and the new expansion coming out, you don't have to miss it :).
1:42 Poseidon, Master of Atlantis, niiiice
thanks for this man, I feel nostalgic I just don't wanna leave home...
2:06 what a view !
This dude has the longest commute home I’ve ever seen.
Six years, and I still enjoy watching this. Merry Christmas
Thank you! Merry Christmas, friend.

No problem; glad you enjoyed it. Another video is in the works.
You just captured the spirit if that game. I would like to say so much, but I guess I will just stick with a huge Thank You!
Thanks. It is a really beautiful game, so it's a pleasure designing :).
Just beautiful. This how I remember AOM when I was a child..
How come this is so.. divinely satisfying?....
Omg i love the cinematic.Good work man love you
Glad you enjoyed it.
Dude.
The parts with the cities were so beautiful
This is what I call hard work. Making the cities so lively and I really like the way you used the titans. Just roaming around their mythologies! Keep it up! :)
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! Thanks for all the views and the 1000+ likes - can't believe it's been a year :).

Impressive cinematic! Everything is so perfect.
Absolutely stunning animation with one of the most amazing panoramas I have ever seen done in a game engine of that time! Bravo to you this was amazing!
Thank you! I'm working on another one that will (hopefully) topple this one.
Take your time and good luck! I wish you the best. :)
Excellent work pal, you did amazing!
Wow, another incredible cinematic! Just came from the second video. So cool and as many people have already said, excellent work.

Ian O'Lear thanks. I’m currently working on an Egyptian cinematic - halfway there.
@@Anraheir keep it up bro looking forward to it!
dude...this is beautiful. this game is my childhood and i almost cried lol, sooo well made!
Serdar Joshua glad you enjoyed watching, bro. Stay tuned for my Egyptian cinematic :)
You did an awesome job in making this cinematic! Even though the game is quite old, I still want to try my hand on it and this was a major inspiration!
Glad you're taking a crack at it and that the video is inspiring you. Go for it :)
Wonderful job!
That village deserves a promotion to hero for all of that.
that Horse was equally Brave going down into the Underworld
Lol @ the random polar bear at the end. This is an absolutely beautiful Christmas animation.
This brings back so many wonderful memories of that game, great job!
+Brandon Wu Thanks :).
While the graphics are outdated for today, I've always wanted to make a legit 90 minute movie with the AoM editor, with legit voice acting and all.
Yeah, I too have been flirting with that idea for a few years now. No doubt it'd be doable, but it would take much work. Despite the outdated graphics, the AOM editor can deliver some spectacular scenery (with persistence and attention to detail, of course).
Wow, this is good. The shots from a low angle like 1:04 are incredible. I've never seen an angle like that from AoM
It looked really unfamiliar. Really neat.
Does no one else notice the Various Deities that just happen to be walking around?
How our grandparents explain how they got to school 😆. But damn gotta say, this is really damn cool.
Man, you're awesome, the cinematic was incredible
Hey, thanks. I'm making plans for another one - love making cinematics :).
This was really cool to watch! I've messed around in the cinematic editor before, and I know you can do some cool stuff with it, and this video is exactly the thing to show off just that! I really like the detail and work put into this; the only criticism is that it wasn't completely obvious to me that it was a Christmas tree he was looking for, but I'm not a Christian, and I'm also pretty unobservant, and I don't think AOM has any specially-decorated trees like that... all in all, though, super great work! was fun to watch
Yeah, you're right - the viewer has to read the video caption to get an overall idea of the story. Glad you enjoyed the cinematic :).
This is all just my grandpa's daily school jog
This is amazing dude, great work!
When i was a Child. I used to play this game for like 12 hours online . Completed the FULL game still missing this game
This has Hard work written on every single piece of it. It's Amazing! I envy your capabilities of Designing. Mostly on that Egyptian Scene, on the main road. Fantastic. Thanks for Sharing!
+Antares Luis Thanks. I'm glad you liked the video. Yes, it is a lot of work, but if you just focus on one piece at a time, it becomes very doable :).
Wow that was actually amazing. I always loved the cinematic work in age of mythology. It still holds up pretty well today too
That moment when these cinematics are literally better than the cinematics AND campaign of Tale of the Dragon. Lol
Jack Laborde (shrugs)
1:19 just blew me away. Totally unbelievable for AOM. Really super cool.
Thanks for watching! I’m working on an Egyptian journey cinematic, actually. More to come.
time goes so fast.. I remember I watched this during christmas and I loved it!
This is the most incredible AOM cinematic that I have ever seen, and that includes the original ones that are a part of the game. And you did it without a single word, it's mind-blowing. You should be a dev for this game. You've really made it look like the world of AOM is lived in.

warms my heart
ZardozLP #metoo (no kidding!)
It was fantastic
A great form of art a good thing to leave in the earth
More coming very soon :)
A villager is the read GOAT, Such a greatly done work!
Really appreciate your efforts.
Bro you are better than the developers
KAYLOR NAVAS lol, thanks. I owe them the game though 🤣
2:13 best girl
Bitch slapped korons for us miss her
Man that was freaking awesome top notch top notch
Thank you. It's great sharing it with the rest of the community :)
To say that this video is excellent is to say nothing. AoM is the game of my childhood and one of the best games I have ever played.
It's a beautiful game indeed. Glad you enjoyed. Stay tuned for more :)
Beautiful work, it really took me back to early youtube days.
This was beautiful
Incredible piece of art, many specially made effects like the highlight when the thunder appears. The cities look awesome and look like hundreds of hours work. Impressive!
Greatest Age of Mythology Cinematic. Also How did you make that lightning effect in 0:42
Thanks :). Using triggers, I changed the lighting from dawn to day and then back to dawn - if the transition occurs quickly enough, it looks like lightning.
@@Anraheir Oh, thanks.
This one video was better than Tale of the Dragon.
Haha, thanks. I appreciate the effort of the team behind that project, but the expansion needs a major overhaul.
Well, this isn't a campaign, it's one of the best things I've ever watched
This is cinematic in not only name but nature. Very good job, congratulations.
Thank you; much appreciated.
Damn you really shown the potential of the cinematic editor that's really impressive
Thanks.
Wow, this is REALLY impressive!
Thank you! :)
this is amazing probably the best i have yet to see!!
3 years later this is still the best AoM machinima on TH-cam
Even the official cinematics weren't this detailed
Thank you for the compliment. Life is busy nowadays, but I'm thinking I'll be able to have another video out eventually.
It was inspiring to me for some reason
Amazing.. Can't imagine how long it took to make everything so perfect and detailled
Thanks. It was about a year of here-and-there labor.
Very nice work, Al Kane 😉
Thank you, Jane :)
#AOMVisions You have a great eye for textures and design. You truly bring out the best aom has to offer by using everything available in editor.
Thank you, friend. It's the only childhood game I keep up with - designing is a favorite pastime.
Love how he quickly sprints away after installing the second tree.
Hehe... can't blame him. Smite me once, shame on you. Smite me twice, shame on me.
The best AoM video I have ever seen. Thank you for such an excellent work and such an excellent talent.
You're welcome!
I can't believe what I just saw... amazing dude... amazing...
Thank you. I'm working on another one that will hopefully blow this one out of the water.
Truly an amazing work. I especially enjoyed the atmosphere of the egyptian and greek cities, and of the Atlanthean harbor.
Thank you. I really want to get another cinematic going. Pet project for next year :).
amazeing cinematic..... one thing that esspecialy appealed to myself was how you hade the bustleing human shaped city scenery's......cut in by the 'untouched' wast wilderness of desserts..forests..mountens etc..where the titan progenitors of both men and gods walked ^^
just so good , thanks a lot bro you make us dream
Holy crap man the detail in this is really impressive.
Thanks!
Haha that was sick man, my favourite game! Must have taken a lot of work
Thanks; lots of planning, but just one scene at a time.
This is more about the trip than the destination, good job ;)!
Thank you :)
that is some hard work and the scenes are beautiful 👌👌👍
Thank you.
This is SO well done! Congrats :)
Thanks for watching the cinematic!
That was beautiful to watch bro, I hope you're doing well
