The "What are you playing?" topic.

@edyzmedieval How do you like AoE2:DE? I dropped if for a while because of performance issues, might pick it up again soon I think.

Mixed bag to be honest - it has a lot of revamped features, but the mix of modern-ish graphics and updated mechanics makes it to me (a huge AoE2 original fan) kind of iffy. It's just not my thing, I prefer the original by far. I only played about 5-6 hours of AoE2 DE but I have about 22-23 of AoE2 HD. And probably over 4-500 hours of the original.

HD version in this case, because I need it compatible with Windows 10.

What updated mechanics bothered you? I played through a few campaigns and didn't notice anything, most of my issues were performance based. I played a decent amount of HD, but never messed with the DLCs.

You see the HD / 4K-ified animations of the units and it feels, personally, weird to see them. Personal preference. Old ones are nicer.

The updated graphics don't bother me that much, but they are weird to see. I like to quality of life stuff, (shift queuing builds/tasks and other stuff) it's nice.

Back to some regular Counter Strike GO (CSGO) and advancing through the Story Mode in GTA V.
