There was a new AoE game but it’s struggling to compete with AoE2. It’s like trying to release a chess 2. People question why they would spend money to buy the new one when they still have the old one.

People are largely still completely satisfied with what they have now.

AoE4 is actually pretty good too. The change to make walls only destroyable by siege weapons changes up the dynamics in an interesting way.

walls are boring :)~

In sc21/2 your base starts 95% walled (and indestructible) with a choke that you can completely wall with about 3 buildings, but few would argue that makes sc21/2 boring.

In relation to RTS games, I think it's a combination of people are largely satisfied with what we have now combined with the fact that MOBAs, FPS, and RTS are probably more appealing to the average gamer.

That being said AoE2 is an awesome game :)
