wow quite surprised how many have the chinese “dlc” and how many are satisfied with it.
i think the idea of adding asian mythology is awesome but the dlc was hilariously bad why? cause:
many reused assets
myth creatures which are mostly even weaker than Atlanteans
weaker visual models (imo graphics looked worser than the orginal 2002 models)
i also want a AOM 2 or reboot so badly more than a definitive edition with same graphics and new races which might end up as horrible executed as chinese dlc.
and i would personally pref maya over aztec but we definitely need a indo-american meso-american race with Quetzalcoatl as an awesome mythic age creature!
There are many reused assets, but it’s not the reason of bad ratings. Avarage players don’t have hawk eyes to see such things.
I don’t think they are weak, but it’s difficult for Chinese to gather favor in the early game and create myth units. Atlanteans have to do nothing to gather favor.
I bougth Age of mytology on steam, I was happy because i love to create big real world maps in AOE editors, only to realize i required to buy a DLC to get a bigger map option? yeah no f*** ty
Relax, the Giant map option doesn’t work on 25% of the maps even with DLCs, you get Large maps instead and none of the maps have been optimized for Giant map option, the Settlement locations are very bad, there are no Settlements in the middle of the map, when you play with many players. However I recommend you to buy the Chinese DLC on sale with 75% discount, it’s not a big money. I predict a Steam sale for 23th June.
