The best Age of Empire ever!
I like the original, but a few sound cues were unnerving, visuals aged a fair bit and I felt it was good but not enough to be played anymore.

But once remastered that beautifully, there's no doubt now.
This is my Definitive Age of Empire game.

The richness of the cultures, sound, variety of visuals & textures, very enjoyable campaign, and just... the Era! For a Pirate of the Caribbean fan with a strong obsession on native/mezzo american cultures it's a dream... The game being still updated with culture specific units reskin (for mainline infantry & such) & new factions just is the cherry at the top of the largest cake of the franchise ^^

All in all, AoE3:DE is the ultimate experience. Worth the price? Like hell, it revived the whole franchise by dipping it into the Fountain of Youth!
So, enjoy the sun & the heat if the new world, and cheers to the RTS genre that keeps on giving gold!
