From today, Age of Empires III (2007) will no longer be available for purchase. After many years of support, we will be retiring the title from sale. Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition will continue to be supported. In addition, on October 30, 2024 at 10am PT multiplayer services for the game will cease to run. This is due to the technology no longer being supported. If you own the game, you will still be able to play campaign and skirmish content.
It was fine. I even played the new Age of Mythology on Steam Deck as well before a patch broke it. I’ve played a few other RTS’s as well.
I only play single player and I’m more of an economic slow player, and I was doing it for simple skirmishes or campaign missions. Of course with harder difficulties, more enemies, a larger map, or even multi-player I doubt it’d be practival.
But with some control tweaks on the Steam side, I can play a decent single player RTS game effectively.
If things get hectic, I save and go to my desktop. That didn’t happen in AoE3 yet though.

Huh, it seems like that kind of game would be terrible on a controller. How does the game feel to play?
