Games like Destiny or Assassin's Creed Odyssey or Valhalla physically hurt my eyes if I stare at them for too long, and its not because of high brightness or flashing light effects. It is funny to think about, that 20 years later I still think the game looks great, beautiful, and full of colour and life, with its own distinct identity, compared to the oversaturation of detail and 'muh 8k ultra-high definiton pixel resolution' of most modern-era games. Every time I open up this game, an unexplainable wave of childhood euphoria from a simpler time flows over my body. That might just be the nostalgia talking out of me though. I personally wouldn't mind at all if it more-or-less looked the same. There is an expectation already here that you can't go away from.Īge of Mythology 2 needs to be an upgrade of exactly what Age of Mythology was, which means it's graphics style is included in this. Age of Mythology on the other hand has a single title that it will have to live up to.

Relic CAN deliver graphically on what AOM 2 fans would want, but I just have a fear they'd cut corners and argue that 'hey, we're trying to make a game here' and poop out an Age 4 game with a new skin and systems they name 'Age of Mythology 2'.Īge of Empires 4 obviously focused more on being a successor to the Age 2 game than that of Age 1 or 3. Relic Entertainment, who made Age 4, made Warhammer Dawn of War 3, which for all the shit that game got at least the graphic style was detailed and looked clean. If AOM 2 was just Age 4 but with a new skin and new systems, I think the AOM fanbase will be extremely saddened. In Age 4 right now the faces of zoomed in units are kind of scary looking, unhuman. Age of Mythology has zoomed in campaign cutscenes, where you see the faces of characters and more details etc. I think they made Age 4 to appeal more to the e-sports crowd that it's graphics are more simplified for that type of gameplay.
