Yeah, don’t even bother downloading it…it’s Rise of Kingdoms 2.0 but adapted for PC so whales can spend money on it…
Yes, it literally became Age of Variants 4…
Yes, exactly… I also play AoE 2 DE, but at least I vary with AoE EE, Retold and AoE Online…
Yes, never better said…with that DLC the saga as we knew it died, FE really crowned itself this year…
Yes, but campaigns still serve to tell stories, something a roguelike mode will never do…
And also the game which might be one of their biggest “flops” back then. My. These people have no idea what is profitable
And now just a month has passed and the difference becomes 50x. Both “free” games. That one even freer
Guess which game does WE think is more worth promoting
AOMR of course, WE released a 2 video stories about the Japanese DLC. I am impressed by this news! There is nothing like this even for AOE2DE.
And on the day Stormgate released, it didn’t even manage to get 1/4th of AOE3’s playerbase.
Frankly speaking since the game was born
That’s kinda crazy. I wonder if there’s still profit to be had at least on the onset.

I really wish AoE III DE would get some support again we really need bug and exploit fixes.
see recent RTS games,COH3, tempest rising，stormgate, aom, dawn of war DE, none of them have more players than aoe3 now. Aoe3 is still the third famous RTS game on steam.
So why did W.E. abandon it？
Man, this really highlights how incredibly stupid the management at World’s Edge is. A $40M, hyped, eagerly anticipated RTS (Stormgate) couldn’t even manage to surpass AOE3’s numbers at all. And yet EW decides to celebrate the release of Stormgate and betray AOE3. There is no sense to it at all, only incompetence.
A performance, balance and exploit fixes update is very much needed
Always with malice in mind
They always hated III
This is only is the centesimal time confirmation!
It’s logical, they want to heavily promote Retold for the DLCs… after the DLCs they’re going to throw it away…
Yes, but it won’t happen… the devs are in Retold and it doesn’t look like they’ll be back…
Yes, it is exactly like that…
You contradict yourself.
Dans ta première quote il parle de retold, le 2e il parle d’AOE 3, je ne vois pas la contradiction
It’s not contradictory… One thing doesn’t take away from the other… just because they stop releasing Retold DLCs doesn’t mean they’ll go back to AoE 3, but rather they’ll go to AoE 4, or worse, only AoE 2…
AoE 2 and AoE 4 are now active developing, you have the wrong context. It would be more correct to say here that they will move on to new AoE 5 or AoM 2.
Yes, also…it applies not only to the present, but also to the future…
It’s a shame, I guess it’s up to the community to keep this game from dying. We could try making a joint mod together, to preserve the life of Age of Empires 3 forever.
I bet their management had never looked at their own games once. Only charts.
