Can you explain me how its that skins affects them? How an arquitecture set will affect a modder?
How having custom flags on your TC and Castles affects the modder communty? They can even add fortnite dances to villagers and still, i dont see how thats divides the communty.
Furthermore, most the modders didnt switch to DE so far.
Besides its not only what “i think”, its the truth for all multiplayer base, the only thing that breaks the game are bugs, crashes, out of syncs, missing old features and spending developing times on adding more useless broken civs that now one ask for, except of course casuals that will not play with them.
You can manually import custom scenarios from HD or AoC with UP 1.5 to DE. They will work with some minor issues most of the time. Yesterday, it was reuploaded the “Saxon Revolt” scenario in spanish to DE. Intro and Outro, some voices and Frisian IA needed some changes, everything else was fine. Honestly, the scenario needs to be more complex to be totally broken, like those multiplayer ones as “U da Prey” for example.
