One of the many highlights of this year's E3 2017 is that Microsoft brought a 4K remastered version of the first generation of "Age of Empires" at the PC conference, called "Age of Empires: Definitive Edition". YouTube channel Candyland has brought a video comparing this game to the original game. The gap between the two is really not the slightest bit, so let’s take a look.
"Age of Empires: Definitive Edition" vs. original video
"Age of Empires: Definitive Edition" has completely upgraded the original version in many aspects, including 4K high-definition support, all units, buildings, and trees have been remade, and the unit's action directions have evolved from 4 in the original to 16, making it smoother. At the same time, all tracks were re-recorded, and the BGM was recorded by the band. The text in the original work has been rewritten, with a total of more than 25,000 lines, ensuring accuracy, and some new gameplay.
