The quality of writing in journals and cutscenes is really something special. I can not recall that we had something approaching this level in the last decade.
This game needs a remake. One of the finest of all times. I got so attached to every soldier that I've named. To see them survive the battles, get promoted and evolve. This was a unique experience. Also a piece of my childhood.
I used to play with my best friend all the time. Back when you could sign into a server with dial up and not lag out instantly. Those were the days. I envy that your father played these with you.
wow ive never seen an upload in such high quality. Nice! I miss this game. Every so often I get on Twitter and harass bungie to return to their roots. 1 & 2 were such good games.
This game will never leave my heart. That moment when they pull the head of Keith Richards out of a beer stein is when my adventure in modern gaming truly began.
If Myth ever gets a remaster, it better have 2D animated cutscenes in it. that was one of the things that made it so memorable. 3D CGI cutscenes are cool and all, but these 2D cartoon interludes feel like a personalized stamp, letting you know just how truly unique Myth really is.
One of the top ten greatest games ever made. It was a heavy inspiration for my “Heavenly Realms” series of angelic war fiction. Loved the story, music, mystery, fan theories, mythos and cell-shaded cutscenes of Myth: TFL. Myth II had some awesome additions but Myth I was always a superior IP for its originality. And yes, The Chronicles of the Black Company by Glen Cook IS amazing and worth reading, especially for its inspirational purposes behind this unsung hero of the golden age of PC gaming.
Thanks for this. This journal narration always made an impact on me and as a teen I'd sleep to it. Then that video got taken down ): Myth is so underrated
@@JamesVigue I have! I remember back in the day the MBO site mentioned it was an inspiration for the games. I totally see it. Wish the Myth narrator did the audiobooks for TBC lmao
I grew up on Myth. Amazing game, not enough attention and popularity. I consider it a foundation of dark fantasy. Great video of preserving our childhood memories.
Today is Wednesday, August 3rd. When I saw that this morning getting ready for work I read it in the narrator's voice and remembered Crow's Bridge haha
This was my first computer game in 2000, Best buy sold it as a bundle with Alien Vs Predator by Rebellion. I played it religiously on my old computer. My father got it for me and he would watch me play. I was 10 years old, I'm 34 now and I still watch this video once or twice a month.
Still one of the best games ever. Great story. Full immerssion. You never feel that you are winning. Insane level of skill required on higher difficulty levels. Loved every bit of it
This game made a lasting impression on me. Someday I will write a story this epic. But I'll need a great composer...half of the experience is that music!
I LOVE the narration for this game. So much so, I intend on incorporating it into my own story on the latest chapter. I'll probably be using the Myth story style for section of the future chapters.
After Mandy's video I though he was holding the story back and not mentioning much to the viewers since he wants to go into the craziness in Myth 2, but no, what he said is pretty much it.
I would love to see these missions turned into short animated stories. Could you imagine a Love Death and Robots Myth version? Could you imagine seeint Berserks desperately tryint to kill The Watcher statue!?
I'm angry this game and this soundtrack and the writers and soundtrack producers and the executive producers of the franchise did all of both master piece games 10 out of 10 for the era of comp/video game game play story campaign and online multiplayer and Online MP way way way ahead of it's time maybe myth 2 ranking was a bit skewed myth TFL had perfect ranking....and a bit skewed back then is an absolute fuckin damn disaster cluster fuck trump bleach in lungs mess to fuckin a joke on terms of organization....back myth 2 a skewed.... compared to 2023 exactly my for said description for halo infinites organization
Halo infinite in its desperate attempt to be simply in simple trump terms as "good" has made a "Balor" suit eye roll "good" has not been for many many years wether a video game story animation or whatever concept... everything....2023 sucks the big one...the year this game Myth TFL game came out....nuff said....
@@idkwmytuni To beat legendary... you aren't really playing the game anymore. You're aware of where all the script triggers are, where enemies teleport in, and you basically pre-prepare ambushes for every single encounter, and game the system. It's.. also an almost complete non-use of melee units except for their movement speed to scare away ghuls and to bait slow enemies into following you. Berserks basically just.. send one guy forward so all the soulless fire at them and run circles, and they never change targets as dwarves come in and blow everything away. It's... gamey, and weird, but Myth's AI isn't great -- it's that the Myth mission designers were just.. gods of planning and understanding how most users would approach the game.. but once you understand the limitations of the script language.. it stops being fun outside multiplayer.. AND THE FRIGGIN' AMAZING JOURNAL ENTRIES!!
Well actually I don't really know where do they spawn or when the scripts trigger. However it is true how frustrating it is to have your melee units just sit in one place "just in case". Specially in Myth II where Heron Guards are supposed to be super badass against Myrkridia, but in reality they get destroyed in seconds. However I think the true problem is that the whole game is designed around the fact that you can save at any time. And because of that there's a lot of bs stuff that occurs because the developers though "well you can just save". And because of that I have to save every 20 seconds like a maniac.

And then dipped from the internet

Ripped off "Black Company".
@@brownshoeblues2014 the books?
@@AZplinkster91 yes, Glen Cook's "The Black Company" epic fantasy series.
@@brownshoeblues2014 in going to have to check em out! Thanks
Fire Emblem Three Houses kiddo.

I grew up playing these with my father, and we still occasionally play them. I'm 32 now, and have been playing since I was about 8-9.
I was born the same year it came out. I was introduced to it by my father too when I was little. Always loved blowing stuff up!
You're about the same age as me. My older brother and I used to play it, even when the only version we had was the demo. I was about the same age.

Ought to read the Black Company series if you havent already.
@@JamesVigue I have! I remember back in the day the MBO site mentioned it was an inspiration for the games. I totally see it. Wish the Myth narrator did the audiobooks for TBC lmao
20+ years this is still my favorite video game storyline of all time
One of the best game series ever made. This and Heroes 3 will always be my favorites!
900 men from the legion appreciate your good work.

I am beyond flustered that Mandalore or ssethtzeentach havent covered this game yet to spark a renaissance
@@followingtheroe1952are you still flustered?
@@WELLbethere yes
I remember having that same thought about mandalore reviewing myth about 6 months ago when the video dropped last night it was like finally
It's been over 20 years since i was first introduced to this game, 20 years ... i miss that time, world was a different place
Change is nature's delight.
20 years is nothing to the likes of a fallen lord.
The way the story and atmosphere mix in Myth I & II is so good. I miss the series.
My god I miss this game. I played it back in the late 90s and was blown away. I need to play it again
Is there a free version or an old copy you can still buy?
@@DrummerJacobyes
A+ for adding that bit of game play footage at the end.
Thano you for this. Im 35 years old and i missed this during my childhood. I appreciate the fact i can experience it now
Today is Wednesday, August 3rd. When I saw that this morning getting ready for work I read it in the narrator's voice and remembered Crow's Bridge haha
That just made me notice Traitors Grave takes place Tuesday August 5th lmao woops
@@followingtheroe1952 Dude I had the same realization recently! What's up with that?!
I love this story. It inspired me to read the Black Company books by Glen Cook. Myth has many similarities to the Black Company.
Thank you, the nostalgia hits hard 🥲
Classic. An absolute classic. Thanks for compiling these.

Thanks for the effort mate.
Also thanks mandalore for showing this gem
Still one of the best games ever. Great story. Full immerssion. You never feel that you are winning. Insane level of skill required on higher difficulty levels. Loved every bit of it
Thanks for making this video! 2:38
This game made a lasting impression on me. Someday I will write a story this epic. But I'll need a great composer...half of the experience is that music!
i feel the same
I LOVE the narration for this game. So much so, I intend on incorporating it into my own story on the latest chapter. I'll probably be using the Myth story style for section of the future chapters.
Awesome my guy. This storyline & Music is so Amazing. This is probably one of the best games Ever Made.
Thank you, good sir. Myth was and is..special.
Your grandfather's died for a place that no longer exists
That voice... Still gives me goose bumps
No casualities.
It will forever haunt me the fact that you left comrades behind to save the most people.😢
Great soundtrack
Best game of my life im 40now
One of the best games i have ever played. Such good memories.
After Mandy's video I though he was holding the story back and not mentioning much to the viewers since he wants to go into the craziness in Myth 2, but no, what he said is pretty much it.
I love my big box Myth 1/2 ❤ I play on win xp 32bit. Works great
5:12 i know this was originally used for myth and not for halo but 🥲 hearing this soundtrack make me want to play halo
I would love to see these missions turned into short animated stories. Could you imagine a Love Death and Robots Myth version? Could you imagine seeint Berserks desperately tryint to kill The Watcher statue!?
make another version including gameplay in between =D
I'm yet to see better narration
Ever consider uploading the wolf age journals?
Yeah, but I don’t have enough time and it’s hard to make them render in-game in high quality :(
@@alf_duc damn well I hope you can figure it out at some point
Did Glen Cook write this?
No he did not, but it was inspired by his books. One of the devs confirmed it in one of the comments!
nemesis was inspired in soulblighter
Madrigal song....
why no recording of in-game cutscenes
Comment here if you came from MandaloreGaming
hello there !

Dumb enough to spend days recording the entire game, dumb enough to beat it on Legendary for the second time.
Bro I fight for my fucking life on *normal* difficulty and its been that way for like 15 years lmao
