Aoe3 TAD Steam Delete Glitch

Post by Cocaine »

Hi all,

So I just had something weird happen. I have aoe3 TAD in my steam library and aoe3 DE which I got a refund for and haven't tried opening since like when it came out. Today when I opened aoe3 TAD the second it hit the loading screen to enter main game offline menu the whole pc restarted. Upon trying to start aoe3 TAD again steam said I don't have the files.. I double checked and I do have the files, so steam is in the process of verifying files to let me play the game again. Thats weird right..

You should be able to open the legacy game without going through Steam anyway.

Steam keeps track of the amount of hours I put in the game so that one day on my death bed I can look at see how much of my life I spent on this beautiful game and think to myself, time well spent.

@Cocaine what I think happened is that your PC crashed and corrupted the TAD installation in the process.

There is also an unrelated glitch where a game will just disappear from your steam installed games, but this sounds different.
