Re: SEIV dying?
Bah. If you like a game, and care about it's perceived popularity level on forums, and even equate that with the game being "alive" or not, then I suggest not posting threads with titles like this.
I'd say it's pretty clear that if you ever want to play SE4 by PBEM, you'll be able to find a game for many years to come, even after SE5 comes out. After all, you can still find SE3 PBEM games, and SE4 pre-Gold PBEM games.
The main "danger" to SE4, it seems to me, will be SE5.

Re: SEIV dying?
You know I seem to remember similiar threads popping up Last year when SE:IV Gold came out .
This game continues to be our top seller, every single day. That's after 2+ years selling it.
We always get highs and lows on the forum, and I would say that this one is more due to the holidays than anything else.
Also DO has done okay, and I think as time goes on and mods and such come out for it that it will have a strong community as well.
As far as myself, I'm still around. Just not officially.

Re: SEIV dying?
There will be another surge in forum Posts once new patch is out. It may give a new live to AI...

Re: SEIV dying?
Dude, Doom isn't even dead yet and it's gotta be more than ten years old, as I remember playing it while I was a 5th grade student.
SEIV will live until SEV comes out, when the SE series stops, the latest generations of the game will probably live on another 10 years.
Now that I've got two computers in my room I will spend a lot of time on SEIV, as I can play two games at once without windowing
And yes, I was born with an 8086 lodged in the side of my head.

I'm not so sure...
Some changes (fixes) will hurt several AIs, I think.

Or longer. SE III still has a following, from what I hear on these Boards.
