You can take a base civs, do some changes, mix something here and there, and turn them into a campaign civ. I thought it was very clear, especially because, as you said, they turned AOE 3 campaign-only-civs into DLC civs later.
not at all, just look at the historical battles of AOE3 DE, in which there are unique civilizations that are not playable in skirmish or multiplayer, but are there to make everything more historically correct.
Game starting with 8 civs, three are mayans, incas, aztecs. What other 5 civs would you add?

Not all civs have campaigns, anyway, unfortunately, so it shouldn’t be a big deal
those are aoe2, wait till aoe 4 comes out.
also, you cant exactly compare expansion from 20 years ago to price similarly to what they are now. gas price has quadrupled and food cost close to doubled.
a game not a necessity will probably at least tripled if not more.

And I hate that part of Age III. If a civ is playable in a campaign, I want it to be playable in multiplayer or in single player vs the AI games.
Oh, well…it is known that there will be unique units and civs in the AOE4 campaigns that will not be playable civilizations like aoe3 DE. so sorry

how about you, did you read what i typed?
My argument is: AOE 2 DE U$ 20,00 / BRL 37,00; Lords of the West U$ 10,00 / BRL 30,00.
Same games, released at same time in both places. LotW costs 50% of AOE 2 DE in Us, but 80% of the same game in Brazil, aka it’s overpriced here. So, as @SalutaryTrain14 said in the first post: " they will lock it behind an overpriced DLC that only people from the first world wil be able to buy (the latest DLC’s have been overpriced!)"

I understand that during the stated timeframe of the game (900 to 1500), each of those empires dwarfed the English in population, population density, city size, land mass, cultural influence, technology.

In Spain (and all the EU) the price is also 50% of the full game price.
Maybe they put the price of the game in your contry cheaper than the standar 20 dollars, but the price of the dlc stayed the same (in 10 dollars), making it proportionally much more expensive.

If it was proportional to U$/BRL exchange, the DLC would cost nearly BRL 60,00
Who’s culture did they influence. If you want to talk about cultural influence the English penned the Magna carta in 1215 which formed democracy and gave the citizens freedoms, and led to constitutional government all around the world. And What did the Aztec or Incas do?

The way I see it, the new expansions will not be 50% of the game price, because aoe4 is probably going to be 60$ because of the modern engine and all that. Unless the expansion is really well done like having 4 civs at least 2 new campaigns, no one will pay 30 dollars
Yes, I think expansions will be thematic of 2 civs and 2 campaigns and will cost 10$/€
(still more worthy than Lords of the West, since civs in AoE 4 change much more than in AoE II).

They domesticated, improved through artificial selection and massively produced the crops of corn, tomato, beans, etc; corn is the most important cereal in the world and keeps our population afloat, without tomato you would not even have pizza … XD.
I forgot, they also developed nixtamalization, how did they come up with it? to date nobody knows.

I also heard that the Aztecs invented the closest thing of the time to modern sewage systems, it’s a pretty interesting fact.
