Hey there guys!

For quite a long time I have been thinking about how to contribute to keeping Age of mythology alive. Not an easy task you would say, the game is more than 15 years old now (although for me in terms of strategic thinking/depth this game can compete with any of the current "popular" rts games).

Back in 2010-2014 there was a good tradition on rtss, to conduct interviews with the real experts of the game (those are still on rtss btw). Those of you who were around at that time will remember that those interviews were typed out. Experts just had to write down the answers to the questions and send it to the interviewer. Now, after some speculation, I have decided to revive that good tradition, but in a special way. The format in which I am eager to conduct interviews is live conversation, with some preliminarily prepared good questions. I feel like a lot of time has passed, whole new balance patches have been introduced to the game and I think experts would have a couple of words to say. Separate time would also be allocated to questions from the viewers.

An important note - I understand that most of the old experts are inactive, but hopefully, with some help from your side guys, I can bring back at least some of them for a short while and reintroduce them to our current small community.

The idea behind this is not to get 350 viewers live (I doubt anything else than Magic-Mista tourney finals can achieve that), rather my aim to highlight and save those interviews on my channel, so that they become an "enduring value". Apparently, most of the new generation has grown up on the replays of those old experts, and I think getting to know them closer would be a nice opportunity for everyone.

Now, I can gladly announce that I already have one candidate - its the great HellsRavage (waiting for final confirmation from him). I will post additionally about the date and time if it happens.

If you have any thoughts on the idea generally as well as the technical details I will be glad to read them!

I didn’t confirm this. Let’s discuss though.

Anyway I’d myself like to see someone like Magyar talk about a transition into LoL. Also I’d like if I could talk with someone else like brick or ero as a round table or something

good initiative

Honestly I like this idea.
Addint to this I think it would be intresting to not interview experts only, but people behind the scene like casters and people that work on patches / RTSL. Generally also people the community knows and loves should get attention because they contribute the most to keeping the game alive.

Another fun thing would be to bring two people that have known intresting relations to do a duo interview / podcast stuff. I'm looking at Beyond the rift from Imaqtpie style!

Magyar would probably be up for it. Message him on facebook and see what he says!

Big thanks guys for all the motivating responses!

A couple of additional points regarding the format and the possibility of round table, conducting interviews with several people at once rather than individually (and I told Hells the same yesterday):
the essence of round table imo is usually to discuss and try to find/suggest solutions to a particular situation/issue and frankly there is no such one particular issue in my mind that I want to discuss. Besides, for an effective and fruitful round table you need at least 5-6 people with diverse opinions on the matter.

What I have in my mind is a bit different: its just getting to know those old/new experts and exploring their opinion/views (not only about the game) individually. Each of them will be highlighted and saved, so that people can also watch them later.

I am waiting for confirmation from Hells right now. Will post as soon as I have news. With such good responses I am really looking forward to bringing this idea to life! ;)

I tried to do a thing lile that back in 2012 or something. Similar to state of the game or something like that and it was a bit of a flop because people had potato microphones (myself included).

Also I had no idea what i was doing so you might have more luck :P
