Civ V is legit top notch. May be a bit slow but that is about the only bad thing about that game. Civ VI missed the mark greatly

Even within PC players community, strategy games are quite niche.
It's the perfect introduction to the genre, a timeless classic, and can be run on pretty much anything at this point.Can we talk about how Civ V is still up there nine years and one direct sequel after launch, too?
So there is work to do. Let's get more PC gamers on this forum.
Nah Age of Empires just has that type of clout. Out of all the games revealed only Minecraft Dungeon has more name recognition.How many of those views were paid? Can't trust plain view counts. Did the video "trend"? If it got such huge views but didn't trend, then likely those are juiced views.

I was answering the ops questions in regards to this forum but your not wrong in regards to MS popularity. However the games industry is actually quite mobile centric, and PC also generates more revenue than console gaming.Gaming Industry is console centric, where Microsoft is distance third when it comes to popularity
I'm not sure of what you mean. Money MS has plenty of that.
that's a little too generous haha
Total War is consistently AAAGrowing up I would have absolutely considering the Age series an AAA franchise.
I think the biggest reason for this is that in general, the entire RTS genre just doesn't scream AAA anymore. The last big RTS title was, what, Starcraft 2? That's almost a decade old, it's newest expansion will be 5 next year. Outside of SC2, there's been nothing that has been super relevant in the traditional RTS genre at all this decade, nobody cares about stuff like Grey Goo, 8 Bit Armies, or Halo Wars 2. The entire traditional RTS genre has been completely eclipsed by MOBAs this decade.
Yeah, Total War: Warhammer 2 is one of the biggest and shiniest games on PC. Its production values are bananas.
It has many people who don't really care about games in general, and they just know only the wow etc.
That's why I chose the word industry. You can see that resetera is representative of how the industry sees gaming(ex. events, big games etc)
Imo resetera is 100% representative of what is happening out there. Sony, Nintendo and then xbox pc.
Either way, resetera is a free gaming forum without labels, not a ghetto.
I've not played a ton of Age of Empires II, but aesthetically speaking, I always loved the way the game looks. Welcome changes I've seen from the trailer so far seem to include 360 degree turning of buildings and walls that actually mesh properly across different levels of elevation instead of just being individual blocks that just seem to stack next each other. Lots of of foliage on the ground and the wheat patches on the farms look really nice. Not to mention, all the soldiers atop of the castle walls is really neat, as are the destruction animations. Really super hyped for this!
Wat... No... Just no.It has many people who don't really care about games in general, and they just know only the wow etc.

We used to have a decent-sized PC audience on here, but many were made to feel unwelcome and left.So there is work to do. Let's get more PC gamers on this forum.

This is myopic, to say the least. Like, incredibly so. But whatever.
ok
Platforms:Someone that plays just wow doesn't count. But we count the players that just play Madden?
It's also a really weird game choice, as the people that only play WOW are probably some of the ones that generate the most money for the games industry.Someone that plays just wow doesn't count. But we count the players that just play Madden?

It was pretty fast at 1.2 million. Like within a day and it became trending for a moment on twitter.maybe it's shown as youtube ads? I think a couple of days ago it was still around 3-400k views. Not that I mind more people seeing it, I'll be getting it for sure.
Talking about PC-centric titles on ERA is useless at this point.
This.Only way to change this is to talk about these games more. And to open threads about them.
It's a mix of this forum being console dominated, and it's not a great place to talk about Xbox related content. It's often said, but stands true that era, along with several other forums is a vocal minority.
Era is a console focused forum id say and one where lets be real....any Xbox focused thread besides the OT turns into complete shit.
Gaming under microsoft is Xbox. Its an Xbox game which is why when you launch the game it will have Xbox Game Studios splashed all over it just like Age of Empires 2 DE which just released.Even if this was true (and it isn't), Age of Empires IV isn't Xbox focused or related. It's a Windows 10 game.
Yes. I am surprised at how little noise there is when they announce Total War expansions, with how popular they are.Why are you surprised?
Console-centric forum heavily skewed to AAA cinematic games and japanese title.
Three Kingdoms came out and sold over 1 million copies in one week, record of the series.
Civilization 6 sold 5 million copies
When SEGA announced HUMANKIND for PC we had people legit pissed because "UH A STRATEGIC GAME, WHACK", despite not knowing that a good chunck of SEGA revenue comes from PC and they european studios.

Niche. I don't know about that chief.
The Age of Empires series has been a commercial success, selling over 20 million copies.
