MODERATORS
Are we going to pretend Age of Empires 4 doesn't exist? The last expansion outsold every single one from AoE2.
According to steamDB AoE IV has between 1.27 and 2.5 million owners. That is a good number, but not mainstream. At the very least not mainstream in the definition used in the article.
I mean, RTS is never going to be that kind of mainstream again, it's too complicated and can't be monetized in the way that something like a shooter can.
My apologies. You weren't arguing against the articles premise, but against the premise that there are no good current RTS games. Ignore my blabering.
