etc… Sadly SC2 has very little in connection with SC:BW other than in name. dodge the biles, stutter step micro, ding the mule calldown bell, juggle with the air transport, click through all your creep tumours as fast as possible, etc. SC2 is a series of arcade-style games, ie. Starcraft 2 is less like Starcraft BW than AOEII or especially Age of Mythology. Unique named characters that are strong, especially against mythological units but that aren’t the one game deciding element like in WC3 where the normal units are just XP source for the heroes.Īlso please rework favour, in AoMEE 3 out of 5 civilisations just gain favour by building buildings (Monuments, Town Centres and Gardens) They should be between WC3 heroes, AoE3 explorers and AoM heroes. Heroes are one thing that should be reworked. Not every unit has to be completely different between the civilisations but they should have unique skins like in AoE4. The number of starting civilisations doesn’t have to be as low as 3, even the very asymmetric WC3 had 4. I think an AoM2 could very well work as a game between AoE4 and SC2. While AoE4 will be like AoE2 with a bit of AoE3. Warcraft 3 also showed that you can make a similar game with 4 civilisations and was released a few months before AoM.ĪoE3 is somewhere between AoE2 and AoM. The developers tired to make AoE more like Starcraft.

Keeping all the good stuffs from the original game and adding new ones too would be really awesome and the right move to make here towards Age of Mythology 2.īlizzard did it really well in this aspect.ĪoM is like a hybrid between AoE1 and SC1. So a reboot it would be a really good option for me.

Nobody thinks about Nu Wa or Dagda come on. I’m aware that history is plenty of civilizations and cultures with a lot of myth out there but let be honest, when someone talks about mythology the first stuff that comes to your mind are Zeus, Thor and Anubis for example. I’m ok adding 1 or 2 new civs such as Japanese or Aztecs (no Chinese please since the disaster of the dragon tales) but not a whole bunch of new civilizations. In my opinion i really want to keep the original civilizations (Greek, Egyptian, Norse) since their culture and mythology is so rich and awesome. Should it be a reboot of old Age of Mythology like Blizzard did with Starcraft 2? Some people want to be a completely new sequel with new civs, others want to have old civs back so i was thinking: Well there is a lot of concern about how should Age of Mythology 2 be if it happens sometime.
