Age of Mythology

Hi! I am an admin of and it has been my quest to tell people that AoM is not dead. Ever since ESOs closure, everyone thought that titles such as AoE3(not Aoe3) and AoM have been left for dead.

However, this is definitely not the case. The games have been abandoned by the developers, but have been picked up by the fans.

Ensemble Studios Online's closure means that an official multiplayer server has been denied to the fans. So, the fans embraced two different third party programs called Voobly and Gameranger. At their peak, both programs (at once) sport approximately 600-1000 Aom'ers.

We at use Voobly in order to play games with each other, host tournaments, and organize events. We chose Voobly due to its relative superiority and features over GameRanger.

We have currently boosted the AoM community's active readership by nine hundred people.

Some background about Age of Mythology for those who have never played :

Age of Mythology is a real time strategy game. It is based around the ideas of Age of Empires and it combines it with ancient mythology. It can teach you about ancient Greek, Egyptian, and Norse mythologies in an interesting way.

In my biased opinion, I believe AoM is better than StarCraft. I won't go too much into it because on . ;D

If you need any more information I'll be happy to answer questions to my best ability.

Saw a few others doing this, so figured I'd throw my hat in as well. Some of this is based of this video () which reminded me of some stuff that I loved and stuff I would like to see improved upon.

1. Expand the Titans Campaign. 10 missions was great when this game first released, but I'd love to get more missions to explore the various Titan Gods and Mythology units. Plus in said campaign we don't get that many missions to play as Titans and even less where we can choose the Minor Gods.

2. Make some tweaks and improvements to the original Campaign. The original campaign was awesome. You got rewarded for exploring the map by finding relics. The game taught you well how things worked. Loved that the heroes would revive when you approached them if they fell in battle. One thing I'd like to see changed is Mission 14 Tug of War. Loved it at first, but it really is so straight forward. Just keep producing units and get the piece of Osiris back to your base. The map is even one of the smallest.

3. Chinese Civilization. Either chuck it, or build it from the ground up. I never played/bought that cash grab, but even I've read stories of just how poorly it was made. I think it has potential, like other Mythology but they gotta make it fit and be balanced with the other civilizations.

4. More Maps. Since I would love to see maps that are familiar to AOE 2 & AOE 3 players get into the game. Especially since it will be fun to explore them.

5. 12 player Skirmish. Yeah, I love just having every civilization be able to fight on the map. Good way to kill some time. Plus making 4 teams of 3, or 3 teams of 4 was fun.

6. Let us still select the AI. I.E. let me set the Egyptian Civilizations AI to playing Defensively. Let me set the Norse to being Aggressive, etc. It just feels so right for each civilization to be able to play differently. Isis players can hunker down and use their monuments to protect from God Powers so you have to breach their defenses and shatter their monuments before you can really bring your powers to bear on them.

7. Make it as good as or better than the AOE 2 & AOE 3 Definitive Editions. I doubt anyone on this sub wouldn't want to see updates, future DLC, and even events/mods being brought in Retold. Especially if you give it the same love and care these other games got.

That's all I can think of for now.

With AOM Retold coming out eventually, what do you want to see? Not just updated graphics or what have you, what new content will you be looking for?

Personally, I want to see new civs and mythologies. We’ve got precedence both from AOE2 Definitive and AOM Expanded getting DLC, so I’d love to see the trend continue into this new version. Add in Maya or Aztec or some other Latin American mythologies.

Think about it, geographically accurate factions like the Norse, Greeks, Egyptians, etc... It could be bomb

Why did the franchise decide that wasn’t a good idea? I’d love to just set my building up to keep producing units. It’d help out a lot.

Va a salir en este año, puede salir en STEAM, Xbox y Game Pass.
