Was Bill Gates Trolling?

deleted_user · Post by **deleted_user** » 03 Dec 2016, 21:14

As some of you remember half a year ago ( something in march april idk exacly the date ) somebody asked & demanded bill gates for a new aoe game and he said he was gonna look into it, but obviously there is no new aoe project, what do you think?

I would imagine Mr. Gates was probably just trolling. He has more important matters to take care of.

I think it will come out but it's going to be an extremely long time.
Maybe i'm just too optimistic.

It won't.

it will be released eventually the only question is how long it will take. Theres probably no game in the making atm. So for the next 5 years I dont expect any triple A game within the aoe franchise to be released or announced.

Seriously, after at least 5 threads about this and approximately 5 months after this you create such a topic... But well, a day without breeze's poll is a day wasted, right >_<

He obviously had no idea what the question was about and just wanted to give a "funny" answer, didn't he say something like "how many empires do you need?!"

Early 2030's, rts will come back, someone will buy aoe and make a remake for profit.

It is known.

Wow. So it's civilisation, just without any of the depth? Horrid.

Please say that is a joke.... if that is the direction of AOE.... its absolute cringe reflex! I cant even....

I think what I am feeling is like if star wars fans found out he new movies were going to bring back jar jar as the main new jedi, and luke became evil and killed chewbacca and left han alive. and stormtroopers were now ewoks in armor.

That's played on a desktop PC. The game is made to work both on a PC and a phone.
