In my Opionion it would be nice to implement the old Intro of Aoe into the DE Edition.
Maybe as a slightly beautified version. I think most players are lovers of the old version, possibly it would help to immerse into the old feeling. I added the videolink below for better understanding which Intro i mean
@Feakynea That would be so great !! If they could really polish the cinematic or make it again with the same scenes, that would HYPE, HYPE, HYPE. Probably adding more video scenes to campaigns would be great… dunno if I’m asking for too much.
I think it will be the same Intro well it is the Age of Empires 1, mabye a better Grafik or so, but thats all what they need more.
I bet it will include the same with some spit and polish… but with more. After all, if it were going to be an exact replica of the game then it wouldn’t need testing.
Yes I thinks so too, it will need a bit of polish 
The original intro with a massive fight was so cool. It could definitly get a nice polish tho xD
The intro was great, but i think they dont do it nothing, as they do with the one of AOE II, they just leave it as it were.
I remember watching it so many times! Always wondered why the later-age units never had axes, like they do in the intro

Yes, but better than a completely new intro.

Good Question i think the the toolage axemen doesn’t count, or?^^
@Feakynea I guess they don’t, cause the ones in the intro have full armor, with breastplates and helmets
Great idea!
They definitly HAVE to remake the old intro. It would be way to good!
I think they will keep it the same, but maybe remix it to only a slight extent (similar to AoE II HD).
Remake of the main intro and the campaign intros would be great
I fear they will just remix the ancient intro. However I must add that I do like a few nice cutscenes during the campaign and I wouldn’t mind watching them
I would prefer if they made a full remastered version of the old intro. Make it the Age of Empires III intro style, with all the better animations and all, but everything is based on the old one. All that starting, the panning through the hills, remade with one of a higher quality. The archers attacking the cavalries, redone with greater effects. The terrible infantry vs infantry battle in the middle of the intro, reanimated with a better animation because seriously, that scene is horrible. So that’s what I am expecting in DE.
Oh, and make it a bit less creepy please. One of the reasons why I don’t like the old one is because it’s creepy-ish…
Gives me chills to watch the intro, this was the first game i ever installed back in 97, Loved it, and i still love it.
Dont know how many nights my mom told me to go to bed, and then i went up again and started playing.
I agree. It is a remarkable intro for people who played it back in the past. A “must have” to be added on the Definitive Version!
CGI’s are expensive so they’ll probably include the old one despite it’s low res. That said I would really like to see a faithful HD recreation - chances are slim though
