I refer to what I posted in another thread.
By the way, misinformation about content (regarding AoE4 having 1 campaign instead of 2 or that they only made “a few” maps) or your value judgments about whether “a piece of content is hated” or “this content is bigger than another” proves absolutely nothing.
When we talk about loving a game, we’re also talking about solving stability/optimization issues, bugs, improving the interface, giving it some competitive publicity in its first year of release, and many other things (as they are doing better in AoM).
Don’t get hung up on the pure content that they didn’t know how to sell. It’s shameful that some of you blame the community for something that, in no way, is their ultimate responsibility.
