Age Of Mythology

[Jubal]

Is there anything different beyond the graphics?

[Othko97]

I think there's a new campaign, there's also fancy lighting effects and shadows. But other than that nothing obvious.

[Jubal]

Mmkay. Probably won't bother then.

[Othko97]

It was on offer when I got it, I wouldn't pay full price.

In case people haven't heard yet, there is a new expansion coming!

[Jubal]

Ooh - any guesses on what the new mythology is? Could be Mesopotamian perhaps? Or Slavic*?

* I would love it to be slavic, because I want a vampire squash godpower.

AoM Expac is called Tale of the Dragon and features Chinese as a new race.

Mmkay, interesting. Will be good to see what the new Myth Units are like

[Clockwork]

Through a quick search I'm led to believe probably dragons, Oni-type things (chinese have their own). The lion-esque looking statues they have might make an appearance as well. They also might have a clam-monster and probably a turtle. And found a headless warrior Xing Tian.

[Jubal]

I should get more familiar with Chinese myths really, I've got an introductory book somewhere.

New expac launched yesterday http://steamcommunity.com/games/266840/announcements/detail/988906472304501233


EDIT: Although apparently it's broken as portugal.

[Jubal]

Yeah, might wait a bit for the bugs to be ironed out there!
