The accents of the cinematic voices in the definition were more accurate plus graphics had a remastered effect. But hey, you're right. they utterly lack emotions and mood. I still prefer the original. well at least even I prefer the HD edition of the original.
Dude, there's so much potential in games that contain academics such as this. Definitely, something that hasn't really been capitalized yet, besides total war.
I visited Edinburgh, Glasgow, Sterling and Inverness recently and played this in my headphones. Was a glorious feeling. Scotland forever.🏴 Most polite and warm people. Much more down to earth than the English from the south.
thinking of how great the history of william wallace is, I'm a bit disappointed that it is put in just a simple tutorial campaign. the campaign deserves to be more complex and harder, like the rest.
i actually disagree with you if only because this was most likely the first campaign that people played and therefore the most baseline shared experience and therefore most iconic memory of the game for those who played it. I remember being 3-5 years old sitting in my dads lap playing this with him and now i'm going to school for my bachelors in history. The line between those two events is a straight one : )
Doesn't anyone think it would've been better to still have six or seven levels of the William Wallace campaign but end it with the Battle of Stirling Bridge instead of the Battle of Falkirk? The latter sees the Scots triumph when it was the complete opposite. And even with that fictionalised outcome, it's stated that the struggle against Edward Longshanks would continue. I just feel that the campaign could've had a happy ending for the player without being so historically inaccurate. For all the inaccuracies Braveheart was full of, at least they actually had the Scots _lose_ the battle as they did.
+Silly Billy The Scots did. But besides, if you wanted to play a more suitable/historically victorious campaign for this, you'd do Robert the Bruce. Which would feature things like civil war, betrayals, and wholesale raids and massacres South of the border. Also lacks the great celebrity tiein.

"Don't forget, keep exploring the map"
real life advice right there, kinsman!
100x More passionate than the new narrator in the Definitive version
That's why im here lol. Don't suppose we can change it to the classic narration?
true
Listen to the Spanish HD version. You can FEEL the passion
Download the old one @@sparta2705
It’s so much better than the definitive version
felt like a boss when i beat this as a kid
The intro and the ending of the last mission still gives me goosebumps to this very day.
Way better than the definitive edition, at least this has some emotion to it :D

WOOOOOOOOAAAD RRRRRRRRAAIDERRRRRSSSSS
They are probably good in their own ways. But this one has the best energy to it :D
Yeh why they even bother to change it.
My childhood!! So satisfying to watch and relive.

The next line made me and my brother lol quite a bit
i love these cutscenes so much!

Love that they brought this to xbox but it kills me that the orginal voice actor isn't doing these scenes in it
thank you for doing this work for aoe 2 players, keep going
6:55 Fake news
3:10 is that a drawing of Mel Gibson?
Soo much passion in this voice actor. Man that voice is so cool
I loved this, but I never noticed his Scottish accent is just making the "r" sound like in Russian or Italian
A lot of Scottish people roll their Rs the same way people in southwest France do
FREEDOM!!!!!
Brave heart!!

I like this Nicko McBrain narration
Good story. Zero to Ten. Everyone do their bit for survive
NOSTALGIA 🥲
This campaign is also Trial Version only.
Yes and no. While it was the only campaign available in Trial Version it also found its way into the full release
please make the forgotten campaign cutscenes
Did Edward Longshanks visit the Franks?
Can anyone, anyone tell me who is the narrator!???

It’s a campaign though, it’s supposed to be easy
@@taklampan650 That doesn't make sense? Some campaign missions in AoE 2 are known to be challenging.
@@FloosWorld_AoE Yes, but this is the tutorial. It is supposed to help new players learn the basics of the game
@@taklampan650 Yes true but I was refering to you calling campaigns easy.

Well, hello there Scottish Bob Page!
Imagine Mimir from God Of War being the one narrating these cutscenes

Wasn't William Wallace tortured by Edward Longshanks?

@@suhyun0428 i see. Wonder why they did that
The Scots were represented by the Celts
The Celts never met the Turks.
Why? Why? WHY(!) could they not hire someone Scottish to do a freakin Scottish accent?!
Ugh... fake one sounds so bad
Then how about El Cid, or Joan of Arc?? Hehe. Do not bother it.
El Cid one looks like Mexican
