Final TW Game? I highly doubt it. The game still works well enough for most people, and I have heard nothing that leads me to believe sales have taken a huge hit. People leveled many of the same criticisms at RTW and M2TW, and however justfied they may have been, the fact remains most people still had alot of fun with those two games. The negative (over)reactions or typical of any PC release, especially a well known one. People expect games to work out of box perfectly, and the fact of the matter is, with a few exceptions, no complex PC or even console game has ever been able to do that.

Most people, including myself, are still having alot of fun with E:TW, and I fully expect continued ETW support by CA, and future relases (personally hoping they stay away from Shogun, my least favorite of the series, and return to Ancient Rome and Greece for some Trireme battles).
