So, im just reposting my reddit post here ,because there is other thread that lacks some critical context with folder “proof”. To clarify I think medieval Chinese campaign still could be scrapped, but there is still no evidence of 3K civs being Chronicles originally
Most of you assumed it was because 3K supposed to be part of Chronicles. But all of you missed 1 detail.Its placed in WPFUI folder
What is WPFUI ?
With some googling we can find that WPFUI is an open source project that brings WPF to the application
What is WPF ? Google some more and you can find out that is…
And now look at how pretty Chronicles DLC campaign menu looks like
And suddenly it all makes sense now. Why would devs use old campaign interface if there is already implemented new system ? And naturally you WOULD PLACE YOUR FILE RESOURCES TO THE NEW FOLDER WITH ALL REQUIRED XAML FILES WHERE ALSO PLACED GREECE DLC CAMPAIGN. Thanks for your attention

Your arguments were debunked on Reddit, and they will be debunked here.

they were not, you said no real argument lol
maybe you should learn how game files and placeholders work first ?
They literally did Chronicles-styled artwork for the DLC.
It’s so obvious 3 Kingdoms are meant for Chronicles.

You’re asking this seriously or sarcastically?

yeah serious, enlighten me
i like how you guys all say “Its so obvious” and send no real comparasion screenshot or an actual proof in game files. But when someone points out there is a simple explanation its ignored
Which of these is unlike the other.

my god. Have you read original post ?
YES they are using chronicles campaign interface. NO it does not mean anything. There is no point of using old campaign system, because there is superior version of it
You’re basing your entire argument on the hypothetical idea that the way that all campaigns have been presented would be abandoned? That’s it?

I would like to inquire as to how many people with whom I’m conversing. I’m becoming decreasingly convinced that answer is 1.

How do you came to this conclusion ? They are making a NEW campaign in the NEW system. Because why not ?NO ONE would redraw 30+ campaigns arts just for this, but why not for the new one ?
And I cant still see an actual proof of 3K civs being in separate mode. All you say is some wild conspiracies
The WPFUI folder also contains a “Common” folder with general assets, so more campaigns now using the campaign menu introduced with Battle for Greece are likely.
But obviously, we need more DLCs to actually verify that so I’d would hold back from speculating that 3K were planned as a Chronicles addon, given that Chronicles seems to be made by CaptureAge only.

Finally, someone who reads the whole post. I see no reason for using old method for creating campaigns, seems like WPFUI tool is just more stable and developer friendly
So your proofs are:
-New campaign looks like Chronicles campaign(But without actual artwork overlap or style or an actually anything meanigful)
-Some random chinese hover, that was unused(But also there is also unused south-indian hover). That is png that you can recolor in 3 seconds
seems legit so far
