What’s driving the choice to launch new DLC for AoE2 along with AoE 4?
As a result of the AoE2:DE model is the most well-liked of the sequence… When it comes to opinions on Steam, I see 3x as many for AoE2:DE than for AoE4:AE. The common variety of gamers can also be now 2x greater in line with Steam Charts.
At launch, AoE4 was after all way more well-liked than its older brothers, however after a month or two the typical variety of gamers dipped under that of AoE2:DE.
AoE2:DE ingame engine is 2nd vs AoE4:AE’s is 3d, which might have a big influence on how a lot work it’s to develop for one or the opposite.
However, what appears extra vital to me is the aim of this specific enlargement:
It serves because the port of Age of Empires content material into the Age of Empires II: Definitive Version consumer.
The enlargement will comprise all 16 civilizations obtainable in Age of Empires: Definitive Version.
In different phrases, they port current content material (maybe property that may be reused) from AoE1 to AoE2:DE. Comparatively little work for a bigger viewers, which appreciates the work extra… I anticipate this to translate instantly into extra gross sales and decrease prices.
