In fairness, they have far better story-based material to work with this time around, considering that Greek, Norse and Egyptian mythology is full of rich and enthralling tales. Gameplay they do well, but a quality storyline always seemed something that was previously left on the cutting room floor. This was frankly the last thing I expected to see in a Microsoft RTS. For a start there's much more of an absorbing storyline to the massive 36-mission campaign (divided up into the three eras), akin to the quality storyline in Warcraft III. It was solid but standard fare, and multiplayer proved to be much more of an interesting training ground. I have to admit in Age Of Empires II: The Age of Kings, I only took a passing interest in the single-player campaign. And what better mythical times for the setting of Age Of Mythology, the latest title from Microsoft’s world famous, award-winning RTS series and its first 3D strategy outing? Single-Minded In fact the Greek gods aren’t the only ones getting the Age Of treatment, as the game also revolves around two other eras of gods and mortals, the Norse and the Egyptians. Bored of the endless toga parties and fighting among themselves, they meddled in the affairs of men, until those mortals raised their fists to the heavens and defied them - whereupon they gleefully descended upon the earth bringing with them torture methods involving endlessly shifting boulders up a hill or having some of the squashier parts of ones anatomy repeatedly plucked out by the local wildlife.
And what about the gods? Bastards the lot of them.
A time of legends - when you couldn’t move for would-be heroes traipsing off to gain riches and glory by slaughtering some poor deformed creature who’d just happened to steal a few sheep.
Reading the link you can see about 1000 guys had the same problem when windows 10 came out! Lol i did not even know so many guys played the game.Welcome to Ancient Greece. So its possible it may work with a different source. As far as i know BSB0708 and I use the same source from torrent. Or maybe you can share your source of the game with us. Maybe someone here had a similar problem and can explain if there is a fix. Which all together means that AOM (and other games that use the same copy protection technology) can't work on Windows 10 until Microsoft provide a compatible driver."īut some of you say you have aom and aomx on windows 10 which gives me hope.
The driver was provided with Win 8.1 64 bit, which is why it worked on that platform. This driver is part of the copy protection mechanism on AOM and other games.
It's the fact that Windows 10 doesn't come with SECDRV.SYS driver, and the one that comes with the game is a 32-bit driver that isn't signed and won't work. "I guess you are having the same problem as myself and a number of others. Here is what most guys have to say about the issue I just auto assumed it would not work with windows 10 and uninstalled it and stopped playing. Please can someone check it out and see if there is a solution to this problem. I download the game pack from torrent too like bsb0708. I had aom and aomx on windows 7 and it always seemed to work fine.īut it just does not launch on windows 10.
