Dammm , for a mobile this is 100% fake but an Age of Empires made like this would be amazing, insane detail level, maybe some day…

No discussion here, AOE3 went for realism and has many details.
But this thread is comparing AOE4 to that mobile game, not AOE3:DE.

If you say so… 11 11
Not the same artstyle. AoE4 and mobile AoE are like twins with the artstyle. AoE mobile looks like the better looking twin though

HAHAHAHA yeah thats the issue here.
Not the delusion you have concucted that a mobile game’s promotional art is anyway representative of what the actual game is on a smart phone.
Age of Mythology would be too much for this “Return to Empire” to measure up to much less AOE4 or any RTS on PC currently released in the past 10 years but lol sure.
I also think Return to Empires looks nice, even if it’s just a mobile game. Obviously the gameplay will be different, but the graphic is impressive as to what smartphones are capable of generating today. The building design in RoE looks more distinct compare to the one in Age of Empires IV; where in the Stress Test version, it’s difficult to seperate the wonder from your other buildings.
I’d still prefer Age of Empires IV to have Manor Lords or Medieval Dynasty graphics, considering that PC platforms are more powerful than your typical smartphones. So while the graphics in Return to Empire was justifiable, because it is a mobile game, there’s no reason why Age of Empires IV should look straight out of a mobile game.
The people laughing at Return to Empires are missing the point. Yes, we know it’s a mobile game, genius. But it shouldn’t be looking better in certain aspects when your game was funded by Microsoft using a powerful 3D hardware and engine. And even if you think certain images look fake, the fake images look even more convincing than the actual gameplay in the test run, which is a bigger slap in the face; though I’ll understand if not everyone shares the same opinion, considering that art is subjective.

You keep ignoring the fact that so many people have already pointed out - the graphics you keep pushing are not from actual gameplay. It will not look like that on anyone’s phone…so no, it’s not impressive and not comparable…zzzzz

The best RTS you can play on iphone is Rome Total War imo.
I understand that you expected next-gen realistic art, but Microsoft obviously wants this title to run on any machine with gamepass and probably the Xbox.
You do not know how much money Microsoft was willing to invest in an almost dead genre.
However, aoe3de still looks like dump
It hurts my eyes when I see those bows and crossbows textures… overall, weapon quality is disappointing, they really need to work on this, it is pretty evident during game play. Longbowmen archer looks a little bit better though, this from the latest HRE gameplay video.

Things look decent only in tier 4, tier 1-3 unit still look bad…
Graphics are looking more convincing for sure.

10 years later people will still be arguing about AoE IV graphics when the game is dead and most people are enjoying AoE II DE Remastered Diamond.
