A Perfect Port of a GOAT RTS Game

The best thing about this port is you're not tied you a controller. You can use a mouse/keyboard. Enabling this switches the entire menu system and game over to what you'd expect on the PC. If you're wanting to use the controller, I tried that for a bit and it's fine, but nothing like playing AOE II on a m/kb. The core game has a host of features from a historical campaign over various civilizations during a set period of time, skirmish matches, challenges, and multiplayer. The multiplayer is crossplay like most Xbox titles that have been ported over. The core gameplay is to build up a base/military/economy and defeat other enemy civilizations. Its a decently fast paced strategy game as it's a late 90s strategy game that's on it's third remaster. But as someone that's played this for decades now, AOE II: DE is the way to go.
