Haha alright, no wonder it died so fast

Good to know, thank you! Bit awkward sometimes to pop out single ships :D

What made it so memorable for you? :)

@@asapp_ I loved the Spanish when I was a young lad, so this campaign was one of the few I ever completed as. This one, Huns, and William Wallace. I’ve done a few more with the steam release however

I see! I have not played the william wallace campaign, I thought it would just be a quick tutorial. Guess I have to look at it again!

@@asapp_ it very much is, i was able to finish it in about 1.5 hours but it was among my first rts ever played

I guess we need a big bad guy to chase, otherwise the campaign would be a bit short! :D

​@@asapp_ Well, even if Gargarensis had been more devious / diplomatic, the campaign could eventually have been the same. For example, Arkantos might have decided to help him at first, but shortly realised (maybe with Athena's help) what Gargarensis was actually trying to do. But I guess, by the time we meet him, Gargarensis is already drunk on the godly power he is expecting to obtain, and just cannot consider a mortal as a genuine threat.

This would make a good "what if" kind of custom campaign where you play the story but arkantos joins gargarensis. Or a campaign with multiple choice options in each mission. But I guess it would be a bit much work to do that. But I would love to see it :)

Might have been me sending him somewhere and forgetting about him :D

@@asapp_ It can be hard to keep track of every unit.

Indeed!

Glad you are enjoying it! I only played through the campaign once before myself a couple of years ago. And I agree the story is really good! Go give it a shot :D

Haha thank you very much :D

dang, and I thought he was one of the cool ones. how disappointing

@@asapp_ he was a great character in warcraft 3 but then in WoW his just a power hungry junkie whos looking for his next big hit lol he also has trouble staying dead... spoiler alert.. kinda haha

@@Trixx-tb3xo you are supposed to put the spoiler alert BEFORE you say the spoiler xD but yea I liked him in wc3 but that's all I know from him. I have played some wow but not that much, I think when legion came out. Didn't even know he was a thing after wc3. Illidan saved him when he was lost and now he turns on him. Just sad :(

@@asapp_ he played a big part in WoWs second expansion as a raid boss and yeah just a typical "i need moar powerrrr" evil villan kinda lol you beat him once then he comes back and delivers his famous line in wow communitys "it was mearly a setback" which he does on several occasions if i recall lol but yeah gigachad in warcraft 3 is how i remember him best too, also spoilers... oh wait, dang went and done did it again haha

Sad, wish they kept him as a good guy. Does lady vashj or however you write her name ever make an appearence again? I took a thumbnail with her in it thinking she would play a bigger part in all of this but shes just not showing up anymore xD

sounds about right

in thanos voice "Everything"

ha ha nice BRUH

Thank you :D

After looking at it again I would also say fish, since armor is clinking, a building is not in all mail (not sure why I picked building xD) and plants are not cold as death, but like you said fish can also be warm, or atleast not cold as death. And fish do breathe, just different I guess? Oh well, I felt this one was a bit confusing, but I do like these kind of riddles :D it was a fun mission

The Hydralisk was in the mission where you run away from the demons/undead as tyrande in Reign of Chaos, but I don't recall any zerglings

@@asapp_ maybe they werent actually in the campaign and im just remembering there was a model for zerglings and a marine too in warcraft 3 editor i think the hydra was awesome tho haha

@@Trixx-tb3xo I remember playing a lot of custom maps where you had the marine model as a hero. I miss those times :( And in the campaign you can actually capture the hydra and its a pretty powerful unit :D makes that mission very easy

@@asapp_ the good ol days, hero siege maps, tower defence like elemental TD or Dota in its OG form too, so many awesome fun custom maps and there still are alot going strong too far as i know, makes me wanna see whats about these days lol

@@Trixx-tb3xo I feel like nowadays its hard to play custom games. I think mostly the same ones are hosted and if you dont know how to play they just kick you. Best would be to grab a bunch of friends and play inhouse. But I could be very wrong, I don't really check whats being played anymore but that's how I remember it atleast

glados you amazing machine! i should play both one and two again as well xD and now im thinking there has to be a "the cake is a lie" reference somewhere in this campaign :P

nice :D I've been looking for more secrets since I found that one but couldn't find one yet. Hopefully I didn't miss any in previous missions :D

I tried my best :D

Glad to hear that you managed to beat it in the first try, that means you have improved! And I have to say I am a little Intrigued by the old version but I don't think I will ever play it :D And I really appreciate the kind words but I don't know how much of my "skill" is talent, since I have spend a couple thousand hours playing RTS games like Warcraft 3 and Starcraft and that skill probably transfers over to age of empires. Basically what I am trying to say is, I have played a lot. And I think everyone would be as fast as me if they had spend that much time playing those games :D I also always appreciate every comment no matter how long or short it may be, so no need to apologize, I am glad to have you here! More AoE will come soon! :)

Yea I think they have new voice actors for the definitive edition

Yeah, the original one was more punchy with a more realistic Asian inflection and cadence. Pretty much all vocal performances in DE are subpar to the original in my opinion. They butchered Jimena Díaz horribly 😂

@samm5111 maybe it was just cheaper to let karl from floor 2 do it this time. But I still like it, tho I don't know what it sounded like before so I don't know what I am missing out on 😄

thank you!

yea I like them aswell :D

its actually raining and storming here where i am as i watch this so it fit the ambience pretty well lol

my man is pretty devistated by the loss of that infernal stone xD GGS

Yea I just wish the dialogs would go a bit slower so I can actually read all of it 😅 it gets pretty wild in the next mission. Kinda funny actually, also infernal best unit. I want it back :D

@@asapp_ yeah it does seem to change speed alot lol no biggy, so far it seems like a really well put together campaign and like i said i play alot of WoW and alot of the stuff they talk about is legit, Mu'ru was in early wow and was the power source of the blood elves connection to the light and liandrin is actually the leader of the blood knights too so its cool for me as well to see! i love me some good lore lol

@@Trixx-tb3xo good to know the lore is accurate, but he also made the curse of the forsaken campaign, which is amazing. So I am not surprised 😄

also you were pretty close with that translation i play WoW and blood elves say it alot haha

Totally agree. I've not talked about it in the video but the new UI does look really good! Don't think I will try to read those elvish lines anymore tho xD but thank you

@@asapp_ oh i dunno about that give it your best, good for entertainment xD random lore for you: Anar'alah belore = By the light of the sun.

wait no wrong one, Anu belore dela'na = The sun guides us.

haha okay, I will try to remember that :D

I thought I'm gonna give it a shot. Worked out better than I thought!

Okay!

@@boeyOwO nice! Good luck with future missions, some of them took me a while to beat!

@@the0glitter blue is a scammer and can piss off :D (but thank you for letting me know)

@@JC-js3er looking forward to it!

I see, thanks for explaining :)

It's okay :D I can feel the increase in difficulty tho compared to the previous campaigns

Imo the 3rd and 6th are the hardest. I usually clear this one by focusing on one enemy at the time. It's easy to control the seas with fire galleys to prevent any landings and. Counter the blue war galleys, and you can countain Cyan by walling off their gates

@@the0glitter the 3 mission I build three town hall and put archers inside like a tower that way make my life much easier

Yea I should have used ships sooner. And walling of cyan is a good idea, gotta remember that for future missions! And do archers work different in a TC? I thought you can only put worker in there for some reason.

@@asapp_ unless the new game change that, in mission 3 i can put archers

pikeman on camels? nice!

@@asapp_ kinda, they are both castle age units (can be further upgrades later) but i dont know which is actually better against cav.. pikes dont cost gold though, which is a plus

@@MarialxNoMxS15 that's true, but pike are slow and so far I've not had any gold problems in any of the missions really. Will see what future missions bring :)

@@asapp_ i think gold issues are mainly in pvp games

@@MarialxNoMxS15 damn, thank you. Thats good to know 😄

Thank you! Do they blow up the bridge after the timer runs out and you are getting reinforcements? To be fair I didn't expect to win this easy, but they didn't really have much to stop me, and we are already in imperial and have a bunch of upgrades. So I can just pump out them juicy mangudai (hopefully spelled correctly)! But I have no experience with the previous versions of the game, so maybe the DE version is just a bit easier? Someone mentioned that in mission 3 you used to only have 75pop available instead of 125. That's quiet the big difference! But I don't know if they made the AI better in exchange or if it was just that one mission. If I have more population available in every mission then it's no wonder it looks easy, because it actually is just easier. But I have no clue. Cheers!

@@asapp_ I'm not sure at what game time the bridge gets destroyed but it happens when the enemy starts building a wonder. The timer for reinforcements was kind of pointless if I remember correctly. The reinforcements that arrived were like just a few units or something. Not sure about the original population limits but 75 for mission 3 sounds very low. I don't think it was that little. However the main problem for me in both missions 3 and 6 was that I could never make my army big enough in time to stop their wonder victory but again it was a long time ago and I've never been that good of fast. Defending your base wasn't hard, just the wonders. After watching these campaigns in definitive edition they surely seem a bit different from what I remember from the original game, but I'm not really sure how. :)

I feel like reinforcements in AoE are always kinda disappointing, you wait for half an hour just to get jack shit, but maybe that changes in future campaigns! I've also just double checked and the pop cap for mission 3 is actually at 75. So I really hope they change some other things to make it harded in DE otherwise I feel a bit like playing the easy version :D

I was wondering wether that would be possible after capturing the blue flag. Kinda funny how that works

Dang, I looked it up, it instantly collects 8% of the farms food when you build a new farm or reseed it and it gives 5 population. Sounds pretty good!

Haha, it's the simple things you forget sometimes :D

That's some next level tactic, thanks! I will try to remember that :D

Hmm I always thought I have to kill all TC and worker before they resign, but I guess there are different factors? Or maybe there are different trigger depending on the map?

@@asapp_ yeah i dont really know what their loss conditions are.. but thats why you see them "randomly" deleting their buildings

This wasn't the case in the Age of Kings, only in Age of Conquerors onwards, before you had to actually annihilate the enemies. Starting AoC you just snipe their TC and that's it

As much as I would love to see it, considering the state of blizzard it's probably gonna be a huge disappointment :(

It was not as hard as I thought it would be if I'm honest 😅

@@asapp_ good, now do it again with only 75 max population, and you will notice the difference XD

@@JC-js3er did they make the DE campaigns easier by giving more pop?

@@asapp_ definitely yes. Bc that limitation you have to put an x amount of workers to make it work an x amount of troops and siege weapons to also make it. Meaning you are not gonna have a big army

there are earthquakes? Can you give me a time stamp to what I was talking about? Because I have no idea what you mean :D

@@asapp_ I think it's around 27:30. No spoilers but next time try to go to the western wall and castle, the one defended by that big army next to the monks

@@the0glitter ah okay! So I assume if we go the other route there would be some trigger that destroys stuff. Interesting! I like that there are multiple ways to approach this (or other scenarios for that matter) but I guess this was still the easiest route that we could have taken

@@asapp_ yes absolutely

Ich glaube ein paar stunden brauche ich noch :)

Mission 3 took me the longest so far, with 58minutes :D well minus a couple minutes of cutscene and post game stuff. I do very vaguely remember some of the missions. But it's been ages since I played them and I never played more than the age of king campaigns. Maybe El Cid but that should be about it. There will be a lot of new stuff for me soon!

Oh yea I am on a constant battle with the sound mixing. I've done some changes in the later genghis khan missions but it's still not where I want it to be. I will get it right for the next campaign before I record anything :D but feedback is always appreciated, so thank you! And I am glad you are enjoying the videos! I've not really used the trade carts cause I always thought having workers is just better. But I guess I did kinda run out of gold at the end! Just barely had enough :D Gotta remember that as an option! Does it also work when I build 2 markets myself and trade between them? Or does it have to be an ally? Cheers!

@@asapp_ Unfortunately you can't trade with your own markets so it has to be another players/allys market. You can even trade with enemy markets but you'd probably get killed of course. :) Same works with docks and trade ships. The longer the distance between your and your allys market/dock, the bigger amound of gold you get per trade trip. It is very useful in some levels at least. :)

@@thunderbirdha6913 I feel like I could see it working in a campaign map where I use the enemys market :D maybe I will try it if I should ever get the opportunity and remember it! Hopefully I never have to use ships tho, don't really like them in AoE but not sure why. And I know about the distance stuff, even tho I was a bit confused about the amount in one of the barbarossa missions regarding the gold that was shown when clicking the ally market and the amount that I actually got. I think it said 100gold but I only get 27 per trip. D: But I guess 100 per trip would be a bit too much

@@asapp_ I think the other market always shows 100 gold before you have built your own market but when your market is up it shows the actual amount, but as I said in some missions with less resources it can be very useful. And anothing good thing to remember about it is that you can ugrade your carts to run 2x faster in the market which helps the gold income alot of course. You just need another market upgrade first, i think it is cartoghraphy, before you can upgrade the trade cart speed. :)

I will keep that in mind, thank you!

thank you, it's still a bit confusing which upgrades work on which units :D but I'm learning

@@asapp_ oh i can see that, since im not playing aoe myself, just watching, there are def. things that will forever elude me.. too many civs, too many unique techs etc :D but your content is enjoyable none the less so thank you

Yea all the civs are def. confusing, never know what the civ I'm up against is good at or what special units they have/what they do :D but I'm glad you are enjoying the videos!

It was the longest mission yet, took me 58minutes

And so I shall remember them aswell, as honorless!
