Honestly, the visual designers don't seen to have put much tough on the subject at all.Lastly, regarding the changes to some ''Problematic'' age names and abilities: Changing the Natives power of converting animals was a good move (even back them it was a Pocahantas steryotype) but everything else? Changing colonial to commerce, plantations, etc. Homecity cards are just ''thrown'' in the Metropolis without any visual consideration. The age of Empires remakes and HDs are known for being bad, but the last AOE and AOE3 DE really settle a lower a bar from what was already underground.Third: The game fortunatelly adds some aspects of fan patches of the original aoe3, but their insistency in archaic mechanics (like the way that some natives colect gold) leads to a more slugish game, as many of those mechanics dont fit here.The menus got clumcky and confusing. There are mods and fan projects of the original game with good enough designs that were infinitelly lighter than this one (and mind you, with a better color pallete and saturation).Secondly, the multiplayer does not properly work.

Aoe3 DE by itself is already a problematic game, but the fact that this was a remaster done by one of the largest companies on earth trullyAoe3 DE by itself is already a problematic game, but the fact that this was a remaster done by one of the largest companies on earth trully shows that the Dutch Diseases may also be present on the gaming industry.For starters: I have no idea of why the game is so heavy and badly optimized (I will put my two cents on the new models).
