The Conquerors 1.0c |
LEGENDS OF CHILA
By Oliver, member of Tsunami Studios
This is a short cutscene depicting the events that took place ages ago in the legendary realm of Chila, where the Shapeshifters - people with the ability to turn themselves into animals - lived. The two brothers Virgil and Zanath return to Chila after a thousand years in exile, but they return to bitter tears and a Chila at war.
It is not likely that this will ever become a campaign, at least not in a two-year perspective. I made it because I wanted to explore the possibilities the AoK editor has to offer for fictitious fantasy stories. I attempted to express emotion, feelings, a kind of "Paradise Lost" atmosphere. It is also my mot poetic work so far. My ambition was to make art, not just a game.
This cutscene requires a high-performance computer. I've personally got a laptop with a 2,66 Mhz P4 processor and 512 Mb of RAM, and it runs this cutscene without the slightest lag. I also tested it on a six years old computer with a 1,4 Mhz processor and 128 Mb of RAM, and it managed to run it with some lag. The result was that the music went slightly out of sync with the cutscene. This can unfortunately not be fixed. So, if you have the opportunity to play this on a good comp, please do so. :-)

PS. Sorry for the big file size. I don't want to compress the music too hard. DS.
PPS. Thanks to Mashek for inspiration (not to mention a few excellent sounds I shamelessly borrowed from him ;-) DDS. |

I don't have much time, so I'll make it short:
WOW. That was stunning. No other way to put it...

I never imagined the myriad of possibilities that the scenario editor actually had. This might be the beginning of an Age of Empires masterwork. |

Incredible! I've never witnessed a scenario like it.. How did you do the black bits? i noticed, in between a new part appearing, the rest of the map went black, that was awesome. Truly a magnificent piece of work! |

Basically, when a friend recommended this, I thought it would be just another cut-scene, I was impressed by the Reviews andwas curious what all the fuss was about. I sat there, all during the cut-scene, jaw-dropped to the desk, a string of saliva drooling out my mouth, this would have to be my best experienced yet.
Well done. |

Even after watching this after so many months the cut-scene still is eye opening, jaw dropping and simply captivating! If you haven't downloaded this, regardless whether you like cut-scenes or not, do so now! |
