Myth: The Fallen Lords

« Another great feature of Myth is the terrain: it's truly three-dimensional... The level design is excellent, and the different types of terrain require very different strategies. »

« You must learn the best way to attack, what formations to use, where to position your men and when to fight or run. You'll master the mouse and keyboard controls in no time, but mastering the single player game will take time. »

« If you have the system to handle this game, and especially if you have a good 3D board, grab it right now, don't read another word. This is by far the best medieval warfare game I've ever played, and the added bonus that it happens to have a killer interface, a brilliant storyline, and dazzling graphics just adds a few more medals to Myth's already heavily adorned chest. »

« Myth is a melee of a good time. [Feb 1998, p.180] »

« Myth: The Fallen Lords is a masterpiece in the realtime strategy genre. »

« It may not be as expansive as other real-time strategy games, as it focuses solely on combat, but Myth: The Fallen Lords is bloody, good fun, especially when you move into the multiplayer arena. »

« When you combine the excellent multiplayer support, the great graphics, and the dramatic gameplay improvements offered by the 1.1 patch, you get a truly remarkable real-time strategy game. »

« The graphics and realism are breathtaking, if only the single player game wasn't so difficult! Experienced gamers will certainly get their money's worth out of this one, but novices should run screaming. »

« Spent WAY too much time playing this game, watching my guys blow themselves up and reloading only to repeat again and again and again until finally you beat the level. Repeat. »

« One of first strategies in "3D". I remember playing it as a kid. It was tough for me that times - needed to learn how to play strategy games.. I like them till now :) Waiting for remake! »

« I remember getting my mom to buy me a 3dfx Voodoo graphics card to play this game. Ahhh the days when they sold cards that ONLY accelerated 3D, and left 2D to a different card. »

« Great gameplay, I still replay the game from time to time, The narration between the missions adds a lot to the atmosphere of the game. Generally speaking, this game provides one of the best RTS gameplay ever. »

« Myth: The Fallen Lords is a classic fantasy real-time tactics game from Bungie, the studio that brought the world Halo. Set during a dark and bleak time, an army known as the Legion is all that stands in the way of the Fallen Lords. These Lords are sorcerer-generals that lead armies of undead and monsters to undo the World of Men. It will take every small victory and brilliant strategy on the Legion's part to make a difference, and even so, the chances of winning the war hang by a thread. The player has various units at their disposal for combat tactics to determine either victory and defeat. My top three favorite in-game units are the Dwarf, Forest Giant, and the Warrior. The dwarf is especially useful for how he can use Molotov **** to take out whole scores of enemies. You can even control the dwarf to set up satchel traps!  The Forest Giant is similar to the Ents from Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, and it is a big melee unit that can take a lot of damage and crush enemies into dust. Finally, I love the Warriors because they have a good design for them. They are the most basic melee units for the Light. Naturally, they are inferior to the Berserks, who move faster and deal more significant damage. However, it is just the look of the warriors alone that win me over, for they appear like authentic medieval European soldiers. The musical score is one of two very defining aspects of Myth: The Fallen Lords. Composer Martin O'Donnell is an extremely talented musician, and he is right up there with Oscar-winner Howard Shore. Every track is a masterpiece that sets up the tone for the next level. Many Halo fans will recognize the tune of The Siege of Madrigal, hidden as an Easter egg throughout the original trilogy. The second aspect is the narration done by voice actor Jeffrey Charlton-Perrin. He does a magnificent job of voicing the unknown Narrator in the Legion, describing the Great War's grim details. All while making the story sound more personal and human by the way he conveys his voice alone. Charlton-Perrin doesn't just describe a mythical world but pulls the player into it. For this reason alone, Charlton-Perrin is more than enough to top the likes of Morgan Freeman and Ron Perlman in terms of narration. Finally, one overlooked detail about this game is the animation of the cinematics. The animation can be described as bright and colorful, which may contrast the game's grim and bleak tone. However, this is compensated by how the animators finely detail the animation. It's almost like a fantasy 80s cartoon, but much better. And not at all cheesy! While Myth has become an obscure title, I am genuinely grateful to have preserved my copy over the past two decades. I am amazed by how well this game still holds up after all of that time. If you are fortunate to play a copy of this game, consider yourself very lucky. Myth: The Fallen Lords is a gaming experience that all gamers should enjoy! »

« Атмосфера темного фэнтези, первоклассный геймплей и отличная графика, одна из первых запоминающихся компьютерных игр, уведенных где-то в гостях. »

« Old Bungie Masterpiece, before Halo 4/Destiny. Everything they did back then was pure gold, and this game is no exception. From atmosphere, top notch gameplay, great graphics to one of the best ai i've encountered in games - and im writing this in 2017... »

« Myth The Fallen Lords 1 and 2 needs to be REMASTERED AND Released again! Most fun game ever! For those that played it you know what I'm talking about! Best of times KOTH! »
