Yep. People always bring up how 3DE has higher player count than AoMR on Steam, but fail to mention AoMR is on PS5 and Xbox.
3DE never got the console treatment despite the plethora of requests for it. WE has been far more invested in AoMR from the get-go.
3DE could have been more popular, but WE was not interested.
Yup. It was a means to an end.
He’s from Tantalus. Not from WE.
He has nothing to do with aoe3 being betrayed and killed by WE and FE.
I know, hence why I said " your superiors"
I do wish I had news on AoE:3; I miss providing updates and interacting with y’all. I understand how this may have read as ignorant & I apologise for how it came across.
Merci à vous Tantalus à propos de ce que vous avez fait pour aoe3 DE, je passe encore du temps à faire mes escarmouches en choisissant mes civs au hasard, car grâce à vous j’éprouve du fun à y jouer
Your sincerity is noted, which is more than be can said for anything else we’ve heard since BEFORE and after the cancellation.
Hello, I would like you to communicate the following to your superiors or the appropriate person:
Hello, I am an AOE3 player, and based on the last words in the farewell note, I would like to ask you to please release one last patch with bug fixes and improved modding tools, in addition to making modders’ work as easy as possible. Please take this as an act of farewell to the community and a form of reconciliation with the part of the community that feels betrayed by the treatment over the years and the cancellation of the DLC.
Sincerely, user Konahrik
PS: If it’s possible to release the game code, even better!
Nor were they forgotten empires.
No need to apologize. Thanks for understanding. I’ll buy AOM, Battle for Greece, and other games and DLC when whoever’s in charge respects AOE-3 and its community.
Sort of on topic, it might be cut content?
In the scenario editor from day 1 of DE there has existed a few forest presets for Australian forests, off the top of my head there was a South Australian forest (Tantalus Adelaide… not a coincidence I assume) at least. Was that just devs mucking around and learning the systems by making test presets or was there ever any ideas for Australian maps?
I’m mainly hoping for Aztecs but Tupis are my underdog pick
We wish that, too. Thanks for remind we exist. I say this not as a complaint, but as a friendly reminder that we as a community don’t want to forget this game. We players, and specially we modders, consider this game a part of our lives. We knew that support and new contents were not forever, but the sudden abandonment of it with a DLC (I thought of it as the last one) was an equally sudden damage for us.
Still, we will stay here, until the day we have to go.
Thanks again to devs and community.
If you mean the Japanese reuse assets from the Chinese civ and have proof of it, I agree it sucks. But if it’s your biased opinion that they have similar myths I don’t think that’s relevant.
But not to the publishing studio.
I was referring to the reused assets.
Though similar mythology is also an issue. Not enough that the Japanese don’t deserve to be a civ, but it’s certainly poor form to have them following directly after China. Its like AoE3 having back to back Euro civs.
Given the second AoE3 Euro DLC doesn’t exist, I’d say it’s more like AoE2
They probably planned Australia and many other parts of the world until they realized that it wasn’t right for a European to set foot on new lands.
They forgot about the Dutch and the British 
Seconding this since Daniel (one of the devs) talked about how they wanted to make them as full civs (ofc people here would disagree with him but I trust him more than non-devs on that matter).
From 2024 in the Portuguese civ mod server:
And the “official” “customer” “communication” of World’s Edge still refuses to say anything save gaslighting after the official F-off message.
Obnoxious decisions for real
Just in case
