[MoM] Official Master of Magic Remake

Ahh yes I forgot to post in here that it's out now! Here's the release announcement trailer that @The_J may wish to post in the news.


Now, as the new Master of Magic is released, what are your thoughts and impressions about the new game ?

I am considering to buy it, but it needs free 10 GB and at present I have only 3,7 GB free on my pc, so I would have to delete some other games. One answer I haven´t found in the GOG and steam comments: How many different magicians can participate in a game with the new Master of Magic ? They only say, that there are 14 different magicians, but can they all participate in a single game ?

My current computer can't run it either so I can't give my own gameplay thoughts. However since I run the Master of Magic fans Facebook and Discord groups I'm seeing plenty of other MoM veterans feedback. So far feedback is okay but a bit mixed. Some people love it and feel it's captured the heart of the original, some feel its failed and is not good enough. Out of those disappointed people some feel it will get better with patches and mods and MuHa have said they certainly plan to do patches, DLC and increased mod support.

Sadly the player limit is still 5 civs only. I protested this one quite a bit during development, as while it was fine in 1994, its not okay to have so few players in 2022, but nope.. no luck..

Blake00, thank you very much for the information. :) A 5-player limit for a 2022 remake in my eyes is absolutely underwhelming and now for me it is clear, why this information cannot be found in the introductions to that game. So Age of Wonders 2 SM for me is still the leading game in that genre to play and there is no need to delete something from my pc to make place for the new MOM.

Looks like the addon content for the new Master of Magic is kicking off lol! They've just announced a new free update called "Through the Myrror" is coming adding a number of new things, and they've revealed the first of them which is a new myrran nature Wizard Tlachtga, the Goblin druid.

 
The above announcement of course had everyone thinking "there must be a goblin race coming" and sure enough now that's been announced too...

Showcased some of the cool fan mod projects such as Xeth Nyrrow's huge Mythical Realms mod that adds a large amount of content including extra races.

Posted their roadmap for future content which includes 2 more DLC addons.

MuHa & Slitherine have posted the full line up of their new (& rather fanbase dividing) scifi mechanised faction for the official Master of Magic remake DLC called 'Rise of the Soultrapped'. Yippy I guess.. or in this case Yeet! lol.

New World Computing just called from the 90s and want their HoMM4 poster back lol.. One of the Master of Magic Fans Discord members even made a mock version to illustrate the point haha

MuHa & Slitherine have posted some more dev diaries about their new 'Rise of the Soultrapped' DLC.. can't say I'm a huge fan of all the cute ripoff scifi stuff being added to my beloved high fantasy game to be honest.. but oh well..

I think they've been watching too much St Voyager lately lol..

And I don't even know what the hell is going on here.. bioshock, elves with sniper rifles, girls with pinktails and ray guns riding pigs with bowties.. whyyyyy...

MuHa & Slitherine have revealed another new wizard coming in their 'Rise of the Soultrapped' DLC for the official Master of Magic remake. Grendel the Troll is very might over magic focused and thus able to command very powerful armies. As a warlord player who likes relying on buffed armies & heroes instead of summons I kinda like the idea of a uber warlord trait with army regen.. assuming they get the balancing right as that sounds pretty darn powerful lol.

MuHa & Slitherine have announced a new free update for the official Master of Magic remake containing many cool features such as Steam modding workshop integration, quick load/save, spell favourites, reduced city spam, better hero recruitment, and sparkles.. lots of sparkles!

Busy week for them since as well as the free update they have also released the big new Rise of the Soultrapped DLC addon too!

They've done a new story video for it staring 7 of 9.. err I mean 9 of 7 lol.

And a new gameplay trailer which is pretty high on the cheese factor.. I couldn't stop giggling through half of it lol.
 
FYI I've split this thread into separate Official Master of Magic Remake, MoM Caster of Magic Spin Off, and MoM Implodes Multiplayer Edition Fan Remake threads. Talking about 3 different games in one thread was getting big and messy plus some of them now have their own mods so things were going to get even messier lol.

Anyway MuHa & Slitherine have announced a Free Spooky Halloween Update for the official Master of Magic remake containing a very powerful necromancer Orc Wizard!
