The best way of obtaining food | All food sources compared 

Interesting fact, cheers. Do you mean that people have already tested and noted things like resources/min for competitive play?

@@Nexotic0 yeah there's a pretty detailed excel document. Here's the gather rates one: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/110p1f3nSuBbXtkAAIRhJdfj_T80gPnL5nMCVkzYV6m4/edit#gid=1113909745 Here's the 'encyclopedia' drive.google.com/file/d/1rvEr2xW3UrNQhBdlUcOI8iKnK1llokJo/view?usp=drivesdk

@@BoItTV Holy shit, I guess this is what happens when a game is this old hahaha You got Discord?

@@Nexotic0 Yeah I'm in all the aom Discords. I'm sure you'll find me 🤣

What is the point of this upgrade then if it doesnt give anything? Just to waste your money? Im a bit dumb btw.

I like your thinking

Can't do that if you choose Yahweh or Allah as your major god though.

@@SilurFilur I personally felt that, especially these days.

@@ahmadtarek7763 Can't do that either or any meat source btw if you choose Veganism as your major god too ! ;p

Lol try that as a Saracen

They dont move to drop things off so they will be the best combination for any gather method

@@bohdistavagarcia3355 True, but since their Citizens cost about 3 times as much as a regular villager from other cultures, the question would be: do they actually collect food from farm 3 times as quickly as anyone else?

91 food/min on a farm no upgrades if divided by 3, that's 30 food/min, which is fair as they cost around as much as 2.5 villagers + 25 wood.

Atlanteans seem like an absolute beast in the economic department. I accumulate a ton of resources every time I play as them.

@@akiraigarashi2874 well, they have no travel time and don´t need a lumbermill/mill or miningcamp. also gaia is pretty good in economy. but they take up 3 pop, are very costly and get beaten by the same pop of normal villagers

In the long run I will, really busy with my other channel and irl stuff currently

I don't go deep enough for it to be useful to game developers I think hahaha :p but thanks. I'm just doing this for fun

I'm not as in-depth as him :p I did this for fun

I'm not as in-depth as him :p

@@Nexotic0 I still deeply appreciate.

And also, for animal-lovers, the way of starting your economy without any guilty conscience. I always hate when starting food source of map is either docile huntables or chicken/ducks (though I found a way to cheat that feel of guilt with wild boars, where they at least have a way to defend themselves, and fishing ships, where I at least dont see that act per se. I know it sounds a bit hypocritical, but come on, how would I be able to play and enjoy AoM otherwise?) and when enemy godpower in Mythic Age kills majority or even all of my precious herdable pets (f**king Fimbulwinter!). So yeah, not a kind of competitive player at all xD

@@mausolus8466 That's a pretty unique perspective though, I like it. Sometimes I feel bad killing the piggies for meat... much better if I know they was soldiers before some Greek pulled a curse of hogs on them.

@@sipofsunscorchedsarsaparil6052 Especially if they were soldiers raiding your town and you used that Curse on them (Im still baffled about calvary in this aspect though. How does it works? Does it imprison both psyches in one body? Does it send mount painlessly into afterlife while turning the rider or vice versa?). I love this aspect of poetic justice most in case of Atlantean god power Spider Lair. As an arachnophobe, I find a death by being eaten by giant spider very grim. But in case of those batards that keep raiding my town, I mock them with satisfaction. A bit sadistic? Yes. But they should think twice before trying to turn my carefully build domain into pile of burning debris.

@@mausolus8466 I don't like the spiders too much. Kind of a weird power. Also don't like how they have multiple uses. Would you like to play together sometimes? Could be fun.

@@sipofsunscorchedsarsaparil6052 Well, if I play Atlanteans, I always choose Oceanus in Classical Age (As Caladrias are de facto only primal source universal of healing for Atlanteans), but when I played demo as kid, and the only playable god was Cronos, I just couldnt resist giving my enemies a sample of my own nightmares (although, in case of calvary, I always pittied the poor mount that was draged along). I guess we could give a try of game, but I have to warn you, I really suck at it (I'm definetely a roleplayer in RTS games, rather than competitive player) xD

Time to play it again?

@@Nexotic0 might purchase it again on steam sksksksk

@@Bazziness people still play multiplayer a lot, it's pretty cool to see this old game still flourishing

BUY THE GAME. PLAY THE GAME. JOIN USSSSSSSSS

@@freddyulmer6136 I might purchase it back. But about chinese expansion.......idk whether I should.....

I have a "best archer unit" video on my ideas list, so yes :)

@@Nexotic0 gastraphetes

@@Nexotic0 thanks mate.

The answer is Hades archers. Go watch Boit's channel, this dude doesn't know shit about the game and it shows in every video he has made.

Why are you here 😂 we like Protoxx. Go away.

👀 just having some fun

Hunting is much more fast than farming, especially in the first 1-2 ages

Yeah, I usually just kill off the Goats and Chickens and Deer that are nearby immediately then focus on other things, I've played AOM for awhile but im not great at it, especially not at flipping myself across the map constantly

3ant stop being silly, this man has incorrect information in every video and lacks important details in every video. His into is also plagiarized from the spiffing brit. I know you are scam artist master but surely even you can see this video and see that it is shit

@@noobtablet101 Good idea doesn't necessarily mean good execution

@@noobtablet101 i definitely said good video "IDEA"

This guy's videos do not hold up to Spirit of the Law at all. He lacks fundamental information and ever single video he has made is riddled with errors or misconceptions.

Yeah he is the spirit of the law in mythology 😁

I think they count as herdable, like sheep and pigs and cows, rather than wild game, so the benefit more from husbandry tech than hunting dogs

@@eliaswewel3899 Nope. They are defined as huntable prey in the proto file. Therefore hunting dogs is the technology, that will make you collect from them faster

@@fifaisscripted Nope. Hunting dogs does not work on chickens. He was right when he said husbandry is the applicable tech. This is because husbandry increases the amount of food you can hold. So less walking time because more time spent gathering.

@@noobtablet101 I checked again and you're actually right. Husbandry does not work on chickens because they are missing the unit type "Huntable" to which the technology is referring. However this doesn't make sense, since chickens are still defined as prey and hunted resource in the proto file. I think they either forgot to give them the unit type "huntable" or left it out in purpose. I think I will correct this in my mods, because to me, it doesn't make sense that a hunted animal is not counted as huntable

@@fifaisscripted It's intentional for balance. Chickens are there on low hunt maps where food is meant to be more scarce, or they are in the base while better things to hunt are not as safe and outside of the base. Changing that in a mod would fundamentally change build orders when it doesn't need to be.

Just kill some goblins

His tea intro is straight plagiarized btw. Check out The Spiffing Brit on youtube for some real tea time.

Your profile name is “Fake Name.” You have no power here.

I'll keep that in mind for the next videos

Farms are nice because they don't require you to macro/move villagers a lot

@@mathdantastav2496 in age of mythology it makes domesticated animals fatten faster. Nothing to do with farms or cav

@@Thunderbirdmovies it incresed food carriage

Not exactly. The issue is that gathering is tied to animation cycles in addition to all bonuses. The increase from Sacred Cats is too low to reduce gathering by an additional "tick". Same goes for the wood upgrade but it has the side benefit of knocking down the trees faster.

The greatest game of all time Age of Mythology! If you like RTS games and Egyptian, Greek, Norse time period. It's an old one but still the best imo. Better than the Age of empire series because of god powers and myth units. Besides that they're kind of similar.

Welcome :)

Because with ships and farms you're already getting the infrastructure required to use them at a later point in the game? Just a guess.

well they are "okay" early game given that they are close to your town , but what Baluar said, if its a map with water you'll be building up ur ships for late game.
