    I read thats as Poles and Dances, so you know where my head is at, but I was like, “wow AoE has really changed.”

    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):

      • United States civ
      • Mexican civ
      • Ethiopians and Hausa civs
      • Italian and Maltese civs

      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.

          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.
