Expansion 1? Expansion 2?

[kоВ]

Does anyone know what these two contents "expansion 1/2" correspond to in the premium pack? I didn't understand

[Rws vi Britannia]

First one will add Chinese. We don't know what the 2nd one will add yet, most likely another Pantheon.

[Msooby]

i hope they will also have campaigns for each of these factions, well the chinese already have, but the rest ones need too

thank you, so if I resume to be able to play with the Chinese and potentially another civ (Celtic, India or something like that) you will have to pay for the premium pack? Basically Microsoft sells us the game a second time (ok ok I know it's not exactly the same), and a second time the expansion. interesting

To be fair they seem to be doing a lot of work that I thought wouldn't happen, so I don't mind to pay for something like this. Originally I thought we would only get the OG game with just better graphics and a few quality of life improvements here and there but they have much more planned for this game which I like.

Think Age of Empires DE - nobody cared anymore until they started selling new factions as DLC, the game now has 45 playable factions, compared to 13 the original had and 18 it had after the original Conquerors expansion.

People need new content to keep being invested in the game, but making new content isn't free.

Assuming you do have AoM on Steam already, the value proposition of this is actually really good. The base game costs 30$ - which is a fair price for a remake of an old but popular game, and then you pay 12$ for 2 new pantheons. That's a lot more content for cheaper than AoE DE is getting in their DLC's.

I hope they rework the Chinese dlc, it was pretty undercooked in AoM EX.

[Paraleo]

As far as I understand:
1.what they call now basic game is the original gold edition which included the titans expansion back in the day
2.Expansion 1 is a rework of the chinese DLC we know and love xD
3. Expansion 2 unknown and to be revealed at a later date

yeah it sounded little bit fishy from the description since there already was chinese themed expansion.

My theory is that China's getting a full on rework which is why it's not in the base game. Even if it ends up filling more or less the same 'niche' it will be completely different in the end.

Yes, I know that, the problem is that they already knew that to make an AOM RE they would have to make the Chinese 100% redone and they knew that the majority would consider it an obligation to deliver these 100% redone Chinese as part of the base game, in the same way as in AOE II DE, The Forgottens' terrible campaigns were completely redone and even completely changed (inca) as an integral part of the base game at no extra cost. The same treatment was expected for the Chinese and their AOM campaign.

引用自 Thor II：

In my opinion, either the remade Chinese were part of the base game (+ the 2 pantheons of these 2 expansions), or they should forget the Chinese once and for all (+ the 2 pantheons of these 2 expansions).

As it is, the Chinese took the place of a better pantheon in EE (which would theoretically be part of the base game now in Retold) and are taking the place of a second better Pantheon now in Retold (not being part of the base game).

Imagine if we had to pay again for The Forgottens expansion in AOE II DE, which was completely remade too (despite originally not being as bad as the AOM Chinese)?

Edit: I wouldn't count on a new campaign, in fact it seems extremely unlikely. Furthermore, they would never come close to the original, The Titans campaign hasn't even come close.

What are you all talking about? Titans are the 1st expansion, chinese are the 2nd

No. Retold has Titans baked in on base game, so it is not an expansion.
