    add this to the list of games that flopped before I even knew they existed, You really do have to put down real money to market games if you want people to purchase them

    Maybe we should have two ratings? Saying its a flop is vague, yes it mostly means it didn’t sell, but why? In this case, I didn’t even hear about it there are so many millions of games. But is it a good game regardless? Is it fun to play? These types of headlines don’t really answer that and just push negative press.

    Seems like an ‘ok’ game and is generally liked by the community but therein lies the problem. Ok isn’t good enough anymore and the community interested in a game like this is small and ever shrinking. This wasn’t the game to explode and draw people to the genre so it was never going to meet corporate expectations. Shame because I quite like AoS and think it has a ton of potential as an IP

    I regularly find games based on WHFB to be really cool. AoS on the other hand never interested me.

    Eh…I’m not surpised. Age of Sigmar is Warhammer’s dumb little brother. It’s not a very interesting thing.

    I wish Frontier would focus on their own IP that’s languished for years (Elite) instead of churning out mid games using licensed IP. Just… make a game that’s amazing and focus your efforts on it.
