Napoleonic Era civ in Age of Empires 3 definitive edition

Post by bobabu »

Since we know that the developer of Napoleonic Era works for the definitive edition team and there has been speculation of a new civ being added, it might very well be one of the Napoleonic Era civs.

I don't think they will, but if they did, I wonder which...

Since yesterday, we officially know that the DE's are developed by Forgotten Empires. Source: https://www.forgottenempires.net/age-of ... nouncement.
For over a year, we know that the lead of Napoleonic Era is an employee of Forgotten Empires. Source: https://ne.elpea.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2624

What we don't know is whether @tilanus is part of the team working on AoE3:DE. It's even speculated that another studio is working on AoE3:DE, and not Forgotten Empires.

Even if Tilanus is working on AoE3:DE, it's questionable how much influence he has over what new content/civilizations will be implemented, since he is a graphics lead.

That was my point. AFAIK thereā€™s nothing linking FE to AoE3 DE.

Well that's like saying Interjection is working for EscapeAoe but that doesn't mean there's any link and that Escape will make Age of Empires 3 Videos.

It's implied that Forgotten Empires is working on AoE3:DE, so I think it's understandable people link the two together.

I also heard FE is not working on AoE3:DE. There is reason to believe they do, though.

They are saying there is a link between Tilanus and FE, between FE and AoE2:DE, but not between FE and AoE3:DE.

I think assuming that just because Tilanus is from the AOE3 community is a big jump to make to FE developing 3DE. I would be concerned about the timing in that case because they almost certainly arenā€™t developing those games simultaneously which would put 3DE about 2 years away.
