Yes yes I know, I could Google it or watch a YouTube video. But no, I want honest opinions from other people on what is, in my opinion, one of the last bastions of the old school Internet, where you'd get real opinions from real people.

I loved the original, but never really played multiplayer - mostly because as a young'un I had no money, so I pirated it, but also because I just loved the campaign as well as experimenting with stuff that was never going to work as a multiplayer strategy.

Do you guys feel it's worth the 30something euros it costs on Steam? That's not a lot of money, but more importantly, games take time to play and I have very little of it these days. And once I buy a game, I feel committed to play it.

TranscriptionThe "are you going to sleep" 4 panel comic.

In the first panel, a brain asks "Hey, are you sleeping?"

In the second, a woman with eyes firmly shut responds "Yes, now shut up"

In the third, the brain says "Playing the campaign means you are fighting old battles again"

The fourth has a picture of Arkantos, from the Age of Mythology campaign’s opening dream sequence.

TranscriptionA pretend Twitter thread, started by Leto, whose profile picture is a blonde lady with golden headbands and a blue hood.

Leto: why can’t I find a guy like this ugh

[picture of a brown-haired man in a toga holding a flame torch]

Prometheus (whose profile picture is a twisted monster with mud-brown skin and yellow eyes): hey

Leto: no

Prometheus: I’m literally the guy in the pic

He gives a pretty good overview of the basic mechanics necessary to play Age of Mythology, as well as some of the changes in Retold compared to the classic game.
