Gonna be coming up with names for these missions because heck if I ever remember them!
Welcome to the next game in the serious, it's a real challenging RTT with a real difficulty spike about midway through.
I had this game around the same time I had Populous and I was unable to finish it without cheating, 'course back then cheats came in the back of old Playstation magazines as a bunch of codes...

Lovely video mate, i have such fond memories of this game playing with my brothers on old computers. Thanks for the nostalgia!

Absolutely, I always think it's a real shame that the game is actually so difficult to get running, because it's one that people should absolutely go out and play for themselves.

This showed up in my recommendations and for once, the algorithm did its job. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this playthrough. I only had a passing knowledge of the game when it came out and was fascinated to discover that it was basically Warhammer Total War before Total War even existed! I was also very pleased to see a Populous 3 playthrough because I love that game as well. Keep up the great classic RTS videos!

I'm really grateful you enjoyed it! This game had some beautiful features that just made it magical to play, I liked the permadeath mechanic, the sound design, even the billboarding of the sprites. Yeah I did a lot of Populous content, I ended up as staff for the multiplayer community which meant I gave a lot of time to it's tournaments. I also ended up improving my own play from that initial recording.

I played this game on PlayStation as a kid. Needless to say the control scheme wasn’t optimal for the platform, making an already hard game harder, but I was still captivated by it.

Fun fact. The Grudgebringer crossbow men were the very first unit hired by Morgan in 'Shadow of the Horned Rat'. The backstory behind them was that they were originally part of a large bandit army preying on travelers, and were one of the few groups to survive the imperial crackdown. They found gold and sanctuary in the Grudgebringer army, which explains why they were just about the only unit to still hang around after the events of the first game. Love those complex story details with this game series.

That's quite the information that actually I'm super interested to read. I've always felt that these two titles, Dark Omen and Shadow of the Horned Rat, really had a phenomenal amount of attention to detail put into them, they really did well to tell tales of fantasy that you wanted to listen to, even if one or two voice actors were uh... Less enthused. Thank you for telling me about the Crossbows! Really, little snippets of lore like that I simply adore!

I return to watch this youtube series every now and again as a nice bit of nostalgia from when i played it when I was younger, though as I remember it I never did manage to make it past the Bogenhafen mission. Your commentary giving some nice background and explaining all the intricacies of the game is always so fascinating to listen to.

Thanks! I always try to do any game I play justice. People can look at old games negatively but I like to tell a bit of the story, we can often thank a predecessor for something we hold dear! I always think of Alone in the Dark inspiring Resident Evil for example

Played the demo of this game a billion times (the mission where you defend a church from undead attacking from all sides) and pooled allowance with my brother to buy the whole game. It was such a blast to play but we never managed to finish it. Haven't played it since the 90's but I do remember the last missions being extremely difficult and all my gold went into just replacing the casualties. Compared to TW:Warhammer there's one thing I really like about this game: A single character like a wizard would die just like anyone else if they caught a cannonball in the face. Compare that to single entities in Warhammer soaking up hits from an entire battery with just a few dents on the armor.
@lovenjigaming3517
@lovenjigaming3517 2 года назад
Love the story! I was never able to buy this myself, my parents didn't really want me gaming so the only reason I got to play it on PS1 was because my dad liked it. So I used to sneak on it when he wasn't around, but I didn't ever get close to finishing it. This playthrough was my first time finishing the game! I'm inclined to agree with you. For me I've found Total War: Warhammer lacks that beautiful roleplay of desperation that you get from these more story intense missions where every man is valuable. Something about the way units all had leaders with personalities really got to me. Combined with all the "we're under attack" "help us" and "we fear the enemy" voice lines. And yes I have accidentally shot my wizard many, many times.

The sound design was great. I always remember the fleshy noises of the undead fighting my infantry and feeling sorry for them. I wish the game was more open about its mechanics like levelling and what it does exactly. Still a great game, the character arc of Morgan was good as well. The Grail rides out, destroy the Grail!

Played it as a child, good memories even though i didn't know what to do there and still managed to complete some missions. And it's the Windows version i see for the first time actually, PS1 has some differences compared to this.
@lovenjigaming3517
@lovenjigaming3517 5 лет назад
Yeah I had the PS1 version as a kid too, I used to cheat for instant reload, then spend the whole mission firing cannon shots infinitely. That was the strategy! But this game never explained itself too well. Took a lot of figuring it out for me to beat this game, for sure even now.

Hey, nice video and great to see this game getting coverage. I originally played this on PC but a few years ago replayed it on PS1 but the graphics weren’t as good and some of the music wasn’t included which was a real shame. This was a huge favourite of mine 20 years ago, great to see it getting some love. Nice commentary and at least now I can relive it through your play through!

Completely agree, my oldest friend and I still quote this game to each other periodically. I never made it to the end without using an invincibility cheat on the bright wizard haha, but I would love to have another go if it was rereleased. If I do I will use these as a reference. Still the best warhammer game for me!

No idea where to get this game anymore....not on steam and checked GOG and not there either although it's predecessor is still available for 6 bucks (Shadow of the Horned Rat). Is there anything similar to this on modern computers? I saw Warhammer: Total War, but that seems like the armies are way too big and not at all like the table top game.

I recently got the itch to play this game again, but getting it to run on Windows 10 proved to be too difficult for me. I managed to get into the main menu just fine, but as soon as I started the first mission the game started flickering like crazy. This playthrough is like the next best thing, though ^_^ For future playthroughs, I seem to recall that treasure chests and revealed (e.g. not inside a building) magic items are collected automatically upon winning a mission. No need to spend time collecting those.

So who's Klaus Zimmermann i don't remember him from shadow of the horned rat contrary to Gunther Scheppke.
@lovenjigaming3517
@lovenjigaming3517 2 года назад
Klaus Zimmermann is the 'mentor' to Morgan, it's believed (at least from a Lore Perspective) that he isn't in Shadow of the Horned Rat because his 'training' of Morgan predates even that. However, I personally think it is more a matter of, they just wanted to add additional characters for Morgan to have interaction with. There's not a lot of detail about Klaus, amusing though his presence is.
@Areldil
@Areldil 2 года назад
@@lovenjigaming3517 Thank you for responding, they could've added Gunther Scheppke in "talking head." He was the one who launched Morgan into mercenary and he's the second in command. (Even if i understand that being the leader of the Grudgebringers infantry he could die in battle and it would be a problem for the story lol.)
