Age of Empires III is another in the line of getting the Definitive treatment, so we had a look how it seems to be faring in the recent Beta week before launch.
We introduce the available features (I epicly fail with muting my mic, so have to redo a part later - terribly sorry! :-/) and delve into 1v1 ranked matchmaking (Quick Search from original ESO2), without proper build order and stuff, so just winging it based on memories from 15 years back when I used to play decently competitively - of course I get my arse kicked :-) But it was to explore the game and showcase its performance and different graphics settings (also using Task Manager to show you the resource usage) and such, not my measly "skillz" :-)
As usual in these first looks, I provide the whole experience uncut, so you can appreciate everything and make your own conclusion.
Here we're looking at the team games, another important part of the experience and where problems often arise in the remasters - and Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition is no exception :-/ We had some good games, but also not so good ones, with stutters, FPS drops or crashing OBS or even the game itself - there are issues, or the game has them with my computer. The experience is again uncut whole, besides where OBS crashed.
