Seeing the gods in the sky and knowing that a player has to actively honor them through sacrifice and temple building sounds awesome.
Well that sounds awful lot like Chaos
Yeah that's what I always wanted to see from a mythology game
@@CBRN-115 When TW troy got more mechanics of chaos gods than warriors of chaos XD
@@CBRN-115 every saga games is testing grounds for other games,i guess the god mechanici will go to chaos undivided
I'm so glad there are all three modes available now, really adds replayability to the game!
Did you just confirm medusa with those statues?
Gods I hope so
Gorgon is already in the game, and given all units are getting a myth version, yes.
@Ian Yoder ooh yeah!
We do need a sphinx too. I thought it was a given with all the riddles but I guess not.
I just hope it isn't just an agent. Maybe the soldiers became statues due to a agent activity.
Never thought I’d need to see Cerberus rolling over for a belly rub.
His name basically means Spot (Spotted), so it does fit quite well.
Cerberus is a good boi who deserves all the belly rubs in the world
Then you haven't played Hades yet. Try it out if you can, is a very good game and Cerberus is a very good boy.
Hades just needs someone to walk his dog today, he's a very good boy.
if you play the game hades you can pet him all the time
I LOVEEEEEEE how close this is getting the Age of Mythology!! This is going to be epic!!
now if only we could do a mod that changes the look of the armors to resemble the units in that game
We need Jesus and Allah so I can use Zeus to destroy their inferior religions
Age of Mythology 2!!!)
hell yes.
Ngl...this kinda makes troy seem a bit more interesting to me. And the fact that all the mythical units are optional and there are more historical based game modes, this seems like a win.
yes it does
"You may want to stay away from the beach..."
But it's Summer !!
stay away from the beach?
Naval DLC next? perhaps with some naval mythological units like Charybdis.
Doubt it. Pretty sure the sea beast was just eye candy and it was just said for a "joke" which seems like a bad move considering there are a bunch of people who want naval combat and will read too much into it.
@@AwesomeLionSaurus still, it's a possibility. the main reason that CA used to explain the lack of navel combat in the base game was that were wasn't much historical basis for naval battles at the time, if they're going mythological on the other side they might be able to draw from other myths involving long sea voyages like the Odyssey and the Argonauts
@@Eclipsed_Embers Perhaps, but when you consider that naval warfare has been missing for quite sometime now, it'd seem odd for them to add it back in as a DLC. Especially since, most likely, warhammer 3 won't use naval warfare like in rome 2 or napolean either. Still, anything is possible indeed. Though I'd expect the next naval battle game to be within the next sequel to one of the older games over this or another new title.
@@Eclipsed_Embers I'd love to see naval battles, but keep in mind that they did the exact same thing for the Vampire Coast in their trailer.
...naval battles never became a thing in Warhammer.
yes i love this. This is what i wanted from the start. i'm going to wish list this on Steam.
did you really not get it for free on day 1?
it feel like age of mythology again which i like
Prostagma
What is Mythos? It's what we thought Troy Total War was going to be.
THIS!!!
It is now.
dammm burn
It is what Troy will be soon
I can wholeheartedly say that I was thoroughly disappointed to find out that we had no actual mythical units to begin with. This is a huge win and great call on their behalf IMO.
Great, now i want Total War: Age of Mythology
Arkantos villagers built the Trojan horse in a single day.
LoL....hero game,
You should add more mythological content after this one, there is a big room for that
Egyptian and Norse mythology would be the dopest
@@charleswinters9567 Was the monster at the end a leviathan? And are the statues teasing at a Medusa?
@@dallascimini3619 isn't the Leviathan a biblical Monster? Ketos, Charybdis or the Skylla are some seamonsters from greek mythology.
@@dallascimini3619 Seems to me that it would be the Kraken. Or Typhon, but it's very unlikely
@@arthurbazanelli8191 maybe this is just the merwyrm from the vampire coast making it's presence known.
"The much less fantastical historical mode"
*Seems to be CAs new motto at this point.*
"In 'historical mode', we just remove the things that make fantasy interesting and leave behind a mostly bland TW experience." "Oh also, it appears this will be the trend for the foreseeable future." -CA
@@viscousgoo2021 TBF, "historical mode" in 3 Kingdoms included absolutely everything that was also in older historical TW titles. It only seems bland because we now have romance/mythical modes to compare it to.
@@jodofe4879
Eh.
Personally I liked Shogun 2 better than WH or 3K. Dont get me wrong they're all good games. Just feels like as a historical fan CA kinda threw us all under the bus the moment WH started making money.
@@jodofe4879 I don't think you understand my point. 3K was designed specifically for "Romance" mode. Originally, there was no "historical" mode. All they did to remedy this was removed many of the feature specifically created for romance. They didn't create new mechanics or design mechanics around historical mode. They just simply removed or disabled features from romance.
That's my point. 3K would have been a completely different game had it been designed from a historical context from the start. It was only revised after all the backlash from fans. (Same as Troy, but in the opposite direction.)
@@jodofe4879 No, it was nothing like older TW games. It was designed-in-spreadsheet arcade-like garbage. CA don't know how to make a TW game any more, which is why it's all hype and gimmicks now.
Really hope this isn't the last dlc they make for the game, I'd love to see the Nemean Lion or the Erymanthian Boar get added in a similar way to the Hydra and Cerberus. And would also love to see more Truth-behind-Myth units because CA's interpretations of them are really cool.
It depends sales of the dlc, if its low then it most probably be the last dlc like the nanman dlc in three kingdom
likely the biggest 180 a game has done for me personally. I didn't have much interest in Troy until now, however, I do still love historical games and will always hold out hope for Medieval 3 or perhaps a sequel to Empire.
Welcome to the Hades gentlemen! I will not lie, the chances of your survival are small!
Welcome to Age of Mythology, gentlemen, or should I say...prostagma.
How many people expected the Corybantes to turned into lion men? Makes me wonder how the Spartoi will look.
Like undead probably
@@user-qg4zf9hf4d Good point. The most common fantastical depiction of the Spartoi are as skeletons.
Skeletons
Really look forward to this! But probably the best thing is that this is a sign that CA actually listen to the community :)
I think they planned it from beginning. They just waited when this game will be available on Steam
I don’t play three kingdoms but seeing as they abandoned that game when people were expecting more updates I’m not too sure about that.
@@FerzenRPG I actually don't think so because they drove "the truth behind the myth" really hard last year. It was not well received from a large part of the community when released. First of any sign of this being a part of the plan, was when they released the multiplayer mode. But I could be wrong of course.
@@marcgw496 I was also very surprised about CA dropping 3K. But what many doesn't seem to realize is that this could be a good thing.
@@marcgw496 They did drop 3k, but they have said they are doing a different game in the same setting. I don't think that new game was originally planned, I am fairly certain they originally planned for 3k to have a longer lifespan. The only thing that remains to be seen is what exactly that new game is, if they found a new concept that was impossible to implement in the existing 3k, or if it's just a cheap cashgrab.
Okey the belly rub animation sold me, i get the game.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. May this total war Saga with Historical and Mythic mode split continue long into the future. Give us Ancient Egypt. Norse. Aztec. Chinese saga titles with historical and mythic modes
1:08 well that was unexpected 🤣 nice one CA
Would be a good idea. Mythos armies of different cultures fighting each other. Minotaurs fighting jotunn, rakshasha versus tengu. Just something to think about.
And Jesus and Allaj getting smacked around by Herakles.
Mythos: The Griffin
Truth behind the myth: 2 guys under one chicken costume
See the difference??
Mythos: Hydra
Truth behind the myth: A dude barely dressed, coverrd with mud an a bunch of skeletal snakes on his back.
This is actually epic (no pun intended), any hate it would get is unwarranted!
I mean... This should have been the game a year ago... I guess I can't complain cause it's free.
Especially since they have all three modes of play. Anyone bitching at this point is just hating on general principle.
It's a predictable move by CA and shows they've given up any ambition of ever making another ground-breaking game again. It's all semi-annual releases and DLC, and whenever it doesn't sell, mistreated fans are left with a broken mess. The issue is and always has been gameplay design; CA can't manage it any more so it's now about volume of content they can produce.
The new mythical unit models look sooooo good!
CA: "Truth behind the Myth screwed up badly. Wait, I have an idea, let's give the fans what they have been asking for, and charge them for it!"
What is mythos? It's a great book by Stephen Fry, highly recommend
Now I want Stephen Fry as a voice over.
Wait, this is a real book?
@@CBRN-115 yup
He's written another greek mythology book called "Troy" really good
@@CBRN-115 this game? No. It is loosely based off of Greek myth. There is a book called Mythos by the English comedian/actor Stephen Fry which is his retelling of the Greek myths.
He is a wonderfully warm and intelligent man.
This is what we wanted from the start!
speak for yourself
“Might wanna stay away from the beach”- vampire coast confirmed
Age of Mythology Total War LET'S GOOOOOO
W E N E E D N A V A L B A T T L E S
cool, now you can totally expand more on this, may eventually get the gods to join the fight, that'll be cool af
The "stay away from the beach"-monster animation is the same as for the monster in the trailer for the pirate coast dlc
THIS! This is what I wanted!
"Stay away from the beach...."
Me : *AAH AAH THE BLOOD RUNS COLD!*
Amazing!
Can You Make Atlantis Rise in Mythos. That would be awesome😱
Glad you finaly made Troy into a real Mythology Game.
Was a bit disappointed at the release that it was just Humans in a timeline filled with Myths and Creatures of the Greek Lore.
Cerberus pupper just earned my preorder
Ich love this new style of the teasers 😂👍
very cool and all but could you showcase the monsters already cause i see manticore animations and skeleton in griffins, troll animation and skeleton in cyclopses and skinwolf animation and skeleton in corybantes. true or not true?
This looks like a ton of fun. I hope the Gorgons are available in battle too & not consigned to just being agents on the campaign map.
Really excited for this game now. Will be picking up the whole package on Steam when it's out.
Looks awesome!
Summon the elector counts!!!!
Reunite with Griffins.
well all the more reason to stay out of the water if were gonna get a kraken XD, not sure which one of the gods controls the kraken, but if my memory serves right it is Posidon who has control of it and might be a good reason to ensure that invaders might get heavly weakend when you got a mythical terror of the deep to harrash their fleets
Considering that the kraken has nothing to do with greek mythology, probably not.
@@Fudo94 oh but it does, try and look it up on google and you will see that the Kraken is of the greek mythos, how else has it been in a fair share of greek mythos movies as a creature of mass destruction
That a'maze'ing joke and then... moooving on... 🤣🤣
If they ever do a Theros setting game in this vein, that'd be incredible
Something like narnia?
STFU
Stay away from the beach, rats hate water, Skaven in Troy confirmed.
this looks epic
Love the fact that the mythical beasts follow their lords around on the campaign map.
Lets go Medusa and Seam monster teaser
Photo Mode!!! Screenshot enthusiasts salute you!!!
I really hope a good modding scene pops up around this. Would love to see some chimeras, manticores, and other mythic beasts get added.
Should have been like this from the start... but its nice to know you listen. :)
That looks amazing
That's literally the skin wolf animation
What unit was that?
yep lol wouldn't be surprised at all if they took alot of the stock stuff and just reused it here.
These are all reskins from Warhammer. Of course many of the Warhammer creatures are based on Greek myth so it only makes sense.
@@Caldwing I guess but even then its just so blatant ya know? I would think werewolf creatures might behave a bit differently in one universe to another no? I guess not.
I mean the animations work, creating assets from scratch costs time, money and manpower that could be dedicated to more stuff.
So basically CA is pulling a Age of mythology on this game.
this looks awesome
Finally, a total war warhammer with good maps 💘
Can't wait!!
That Cerberus belly rub is 10/10
Narrator: "You may want to stay away from the beach"
Tiresias: "I can't see why I should do that"
Now we're talking! This is where the fun begins
They should have this guy be doing the advertisement for Warhammer 3
It is not Troy. Now it's famous Homers poem game adaptation. So good.
I hope they do a preview of historical mode, I want to see what that's about.
I'm a bit rusty on my Greek mythology. What are those lion-men at 0:28?
"Sing, Goddess, Achilles’ rage,
Black and murderous, that cost the Greeks
Incalculable pain, pitched countless souls
Of heroes into Hades’ dark,
And left their bodies to rot as feasts
For dogs and birds, as Zeus’ will was done.
Begin with the clash between Agamemnon-
The Greek warlord-and godlike Achilles. " Iliad A 1-15
i am so down for this
I really love the myth units in this, they look much better then warhammer, like the Minotaur, I wasn’t sure if to expect just another beastmen unit or a brand new model, and after seeing the new Minotaur, I love it, because it has the Greek mythical look and feel to it that should be feared every time I see one coming haha
I can finally say “Strike me down Zeus” and actually get struck by lightning cool
remember when historical titles meant historical.
Everthing i wanted
Is that a Kraken at the end?!
I don't remember lion men being part of the Greek/Roman mytho. Could some explain those to me?
great!!!
Soooooo how do i get it from Epic to Steam ??
Mythos is a reasonably good beer in Greece.
I noticed those reused Skin Wolf animations. Not complaining, those are pretty good. It's just funny seeing cats using wolf animations.
Age of Mythology Total War!
any chance for a 20 turn playthrough ?
It feel so good to finally have actual mythic units instead of unrealistic Cosplay. Like that Minotaur look really good.
Ulthuan Acient Guardian has come to Greek
Skaven are hiding somewhere
Good question, will the truth behind the myth get new units too? Human griffon, hydra, etc?
I demand a Kratos dlc !!! Failing that somebody mod one
As a fan of both tw warhammer and historical tw, with 1000+hrs in warhammer and atleast 4000+ in historical tws. I say this piqued my interrest. I dont have Troy or 3k bcus they were just warhammer without monsters. Arcady bs and a disgrace to the tws of old.
I pray that CA will make a "grounded" historical title in the future. Hopefully Empire 2 or medieval 3.
Warhammer 3 will be the last tw game i get if troy and 3k is the future for historical tw titles..
Only thing I want is the historical mode!! So pumped for that!!!
Do we have a release date yet for WH3? 😁
What are those werelion units?
MY BODY IS READY!!!
Well I'm ready to give belly rubs to Cerberus
I had my doubts but after getting warhammer 2 and seeing how fantastical the game can get Im eager to buy this expansion oh boi
I like Total War Troy but with Warhammer 3 coming likely in October I can't see myself looking back at this.
Tbh I can't see why a lot of people are complaining about the mythological mode of a game based on the Iliad. What makes Homer's masterpiece so captivating is the fact that gods walk in our world, fight with the mortals and intervene with their incredible powers.
It’s a Greek lager and it’s a lovely beverage
Winds Howling
Cool I guess. Can you guys make Empire 2 now?
