I'm just here watching the clock waiting for the game to be available for download. Having access to this game a week early is the difference between those who had an early Christmas and those who had to wait. 😂

Those dragons looking so beautiful ! love the fire anomation too <3

Honestly Drongo, if a video doesn’t get released daily and you’re not sick weekly, my life is not balanced.

I bought the premium upgrade for early access and to pre-purchase the upcoming 2 expansions because I'm mostly interested in campaign content. Well also to support the devs/game I'm really excited for. I also felt 50 US$ for what is essentially a full game and its "season pass" is a great deal when that combo usually runs double that sometimes more.

Freyr and Freyja have similar names because they're Twins and the names means Lord and Lady. Personally, I would drop the R with Freyr and just say Frey. Fit is better with modern day English and distinguish the two more.

In modern day Swedish, he is most commonly known as Frej.

I don't think pay to win applies here unless Freyr ends up dominating PVP and is top of the tier list with no competition. Like even if he's S tier as long as he's not alone in S tier I think a paid god pack is totally acceptable.

Cant wait to check it out. I used to play Age Of Empires when I was younger on pc and I loved it.

The tech cost part sounds like Delhi from AOE4 but Diet Delhi lol.

Until the devs change what side the casting UI is on based on player location on that map, you could just rotate the map 180deg and that would also "fix" the issue.

man i get the spanish flu every time i go to the airport, sucks man, hope it only lasts one week and not two.

[nicknickson]

I played Age of Mythology so much as a kid. I'm definitely getting this. Remember the laser bears?

“There’s a subtle distinction between Freyr and Fred” 😂

16:17 is wild lol, love the fps drop explanation for the slo mo

[danielarmstrong]

insanely strong aggro with this new god. spawn in. get enough 2 get 2 second age drop a fort next to your opponent, build a town center. drop the boar to clear their army then flood in with battering rams. insane 1-2 punch

I remember when my sister worked at a daycare back in the day. Dude, she was sick almost weekly, it seemed. It was ridiculous. I feel you, dude! Be well.

[yuzuftazimo]

[SamuelKrm]

[OSU]

Fitz turned a defensive civ to a offensive civ lol

Freyr doesn't feel pay-to-win to me personally - if anything they actually feel quite weak compared to Odin or Thor.
The -50% Research Speed really, really hurts in faster paced matches especially Norse mirror matches. The GP is only really good for one use around your TC and becomes basically unusable afterwards in contrast to Sentinels which is permanent and much more easily reused. Dwarves/Gatherers being able to repair buildings is **extremely** niche and doesn't have too many use-cases.
The best thing he's got going for him is (sadly) access to Freyja which isn't exactly unique but her tech coupled with his own unique tech can produce really meaty Cavalry.

Feels like Freyr should have access to guard towers as a bonus.
