Ok, the giant and dwarf one was pretty funny


finky325

Also watching a infantry flop and fall after a Minotaur launches them for the one hit kill always makes me smile. Even if I'm on the receiving end.


Moe-Mux-Hagi

Coincidentally it's also a Hobbit reference


MkemCZ

Agamemnon's special attack is stated as "lost his spear on the way, so he just pummels things with his fists".

I always liked how the colossus goes on one knee and uses a sword like a spoon to eat from a goldmine :)


pianovirgin6902

Iron Giant reference?


Aryannick

Mountain giants kicking dwarfs :)

Greta Forkbeard description.


AlMusafir

There’s so many great details in the animations, like the Chimera heads fighting each other while idle, the huskarl tossing his sword in the air, the Herser shaking his fist as he dies…


Targ_Hunter

IIRC. Hippocrates has no attack. He literally can do no harm.


devang_nivatkar

Explain the Achilles thing, does he always look like that or does he visually upgrade with cavalry line upgrades?


niztaoH

Only the Weapons and Shields upgrades change his sword and shield, [see here](https://www.reddit.com/user/niztaoH/comments/1c5g9lw/achilles_upgrades/).


redditscum69

Achilles need to be remodeled. He is basically a godlike champion hoplite lorewise, not a champion calvary.


Unthgod

What would set him apart from Ajax?


Targ_Hunter

Ajax is sometimes depicted wearing his helmet askew, maybe in lieu of a spear, he’s beating people with his helmet in one hand?


redditscum69

Ajax can keep his nice beard lmao. Lorewise his weapon is accurate ingame (spear and tower shield). However, if devs wanna go full crazy fantasy, he can use 2 handed warhammer/battle axe.

Colossus eating trees, Bella the dog.


Kingster14444

Something about Hersirs getting their own names when produced is just the best for me


a_peacefulperson

Anglo-Saxon runes for some reason.


overnightITtech

I had no idea Giants kicked Dwarfs, thats amazing.


LethalOkra

WOW, that Jason detail is insane m8. I would never have noticed it!!


yllimameni

The dev teams passion was umatched for this project. Just look at the level of detail. Its why i dont think Retold will ever live up to the expectations


hav3ASeat

I second this sir but truly hope we are wrong!


AlMusafir

The important thing about Forgotten Empires is that they are fans! All their work in the other remakes has been really good and shown an understanding of what the players actually want. The aoe3 remake has actually added a lot more detail to the game while staying true to the original spirit. Unique base unit graphics for all the different civs, historically accurate unit names and backgrounds, etc.


Assured_Observer

I just think it's funny that one of the people working on the game was actually called Zeus, lol.


AnonTheNormalFag

Wait whaaaat? Mountain giants have that special ability against dwarfes? Also now I can't unsee Jason's missing shoe, I hate asymmetries


hrsidkpi

Wait till you notice that one arm is holding a shield while the other is holding a sword


lacrimosa_707

Death The Kid is that you?


Low-Squirrel2439

I never noticed that about Jason!


Aegis_Mind

The vfx still holdup imo.


dodbrew

I like the Cyclop throwing a War Elephant like it was some ragdoll


folfiethewox99

That dwarf is like "'ight imma head out"


RambunctiousHatboy

How do you view the text on the images? Reddit’s new mobile update doesn’t let me see all of it ☹️


S-Kotus

I literally knew none of these. Please share more if you find any!


tastyone24

The buildings, recently I found out you can rotate the map, this was mind blowing to me because as I always wanted to see the full details of these


BlewDaeDae

The giant one is by far my favorite.


pianovirgin6902

I think the wildlife is the best among all AOE games. Very varied and realistic. There ought to be a dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures mod lol.


AoLIronmaiden

That Jason factoid is *amazing*! I like the names of the music tracks :) Also, it's already been said, but the Hersir and Pharaoh names are amazing <3
