MODERATORS
Wow, I honestly had no idea they were making DLC for this? I shouldn't be too surprised since they revived AoE II but I hadn't heard about III. Well, I guess that's a bit of a shame, I always had a soft spot for this game, but even in my group of friends who played RTS semi-frequently AoE III never caught on.
Since 3 DE came out in 2020, they've already released 4 noteworthy DLC (plus some cosmetics):
So this would have been the 5th expansion since the release of DE.
It's never been my personal favourite in the franchise, but it's still a game I have a lot of fondness for, and seeing it shunted off to the side is kinda sad.
Everyone just plays WoL mod
From what I've seen, that doesn't seem to be true. The Definitive Edition seems to have been extremely successful and most of the pros and fans did indeed convert over to it.
Hopefully there'll be a good modding community that the community of aoe3 fans can coalesce around to continue patching it, like WoL did pre-DE.
