i chose the "baseball is dying" as a joke on the "starcraft is dying" thing.
and if a game always needs sequels how is it AoE2 is getting a graphical improvement only.. and a re-release.
unlike other forms of video games... strategy titles live a long long long time.
u can still find Atari 800 MULE competitive communities.
i mean we're talking 32 kilobytes of nonstop action here!
the guy that made the game is dead.
Is AoE2 at its peak?
hell no.
Does the mlb account for all baseball fans world wide?
hell no.
Sure it has stagnated a bit in the states, but growth world wide has only increased. And that does not account for the TV ratings and deals that have recently been signed.

I saw a similar story from a better source recently, cannot find it though.
And while baseball is growing sc2 is declining, albeit slowly.
Games need sequels to grow, other wise they are played until they are technologically out of date(really good game), or in some cases until the number of people dwindles to 0(great game)
