Age of Mythology
I hear some of the developers of Age of Mythology are at Robot Entertainment.
This was honestly one of my favorite RTS games of all time. I personally found it more fun than AoE3.
God powers, choosing a God to follow at each age, and the extremely unique elements of each race, were some of my favorite features. All of these things made your choices feel very impactful and meaningful. Most RTS games don't have a concept of "pick this OR this (not both)", which I find to be an extremely fun decision.
If you worked on AoM, I'd love to talk to you.
Either way, I hope someday to see an AoM 2.
I own, not only this game but also the expansion pack. They are awesome.
I didn't work on AOM, though it was the reason that I was hired by Ensemble Studios, and eventually Robot :). I was #1 in the US at it!
I would love to see AoM 2. it has been my absolute favorite RTS Since it came out, if they started making another one i would absolutely die of happiness.

Wow! That's impressive!
I know continuing the 'age' series is out of the question, but would you guys ever consider and independent RTS? If your previous games are anything to go by it would be fantastic.
I think microsoft owns the series so they cant recreate it. Though, age of mythology was their best game ever. It was like the other age of mythologies, but it also had the best atmosphere ever. If they made something that was just as polished as that game i would me more than happy. And even happier if it was age of mythology 2.
I don't get it... One of the best RTS games EVER MADE, and it didnt even had a sequel...
Why didn't this game got more atention?
Well, I love this game, I still play it and I would love to see a remake...
Can someone explain me what company as the rights over the game and the "power" to remake it?
And please don't be Gas Powered Games... They fuc*ed up Age of Empires with AoEO...
Thanks for the help :P
Microsoft owns the Age franchise, and any games in that franchise would be up to them.
I still play AoM with a bunch of my friends, even though there are only like 20-30 people online now, and we still love it. it is our favorite game. We really want you to make another but you don't have to use the same title as before like name it "Mythology: A New Dawn" or something because we REALLY love it and wish for you to make another.
At the moment, we're not looking to dive into big three year projects. We are more interested in smaller projects that allow us to try out some new ideas and that we can release at a high quality but for lower prices than traditional games.
AoM is doubtless my favourite RTS game, although I haven't played many. I loved everything about it: the fantastic campaign, the intuitive level editor (me and my friend at the time used to be mystified over how cinematics and triggers worked, I was so pleased with myself when I figured it out!), the myth units and god powers. I loved advancing through the ages and how there were so many variables in the major and minor gods, I loved pretty much everything about it. The OP titans were a little annoying for me, but other than that it was a great game and I wish I could still play it.
