Age Of Mythology Retold: A Love Letter To The Devs

As the devs often read this sub, and are on constant touch with the community on their official discord, I wanted to take the time to write them and hopefully this reaches to them.

I wanted to say thank you. You brought back many many great memories by investing in this game. I know AoE 2 is their most succesful and most active game, but AoM has something special that many can't find in AoE or even other RTS.

Of course I won't tell you every single detail about my personal story with this game, because you'd be either bored or end up crying, but to summarize it, I played the OG back then and it served as a shelter when things weren't easy. Retold came out when I was fighting a serious illness and couldn't even stand, so I couldn't do much but play while I recovered.

The fact that they keep expanding it with not only new civs, but campaigns for each new one and 4th Gods, makes me incredibly happy.

I just wanted to say thank you, thank you for listening, thank you for reading us, thank you for your work even though results weren't guaranteed, thank you for releasing this gem, and hopefully, thank you for keep expanding it further.

I hope we get a confirmation of some type, but even if the game is done, I'll keep on playing it for many, many, many years. (Shit it's been 20 and I still dig skirmish against the AI)

I took my time, but I finished the Aztecs campaign

By far the best campaign since the Atlantean one. Loved how it mashes all civs together and how it brought back many familiar faces, even adding more relevant characters.

After the ending, I think it's safe to say they're planning more expansions isnt it? Kamina is set as the next main villain and it felt as a sequel to the OG story.

The chinese campaign was meh and the japanese felt like a step forward, but this time they really outdid theirselves! It would be a shame to stop giving content, specially given the fact that they keep getting better and better.

I hope the devs keep updating this brilliant game, it's just better than ever. We should let the devs know somehow we are prostagmaing the fuck out of this game as long as they keep updating it! 200+ hours on PS5 and I've been playing since release day.
