personal opinion : i struggle to get into age of mythology whenever i pick it up. i would very much rather play age of empires (specifically II definitive edition). but that's my personal opinion. because i can still tell it's a fun (and fine) game! i just personally do not like it.

normally that would be enough to still recommend it, unfortunately I gotta give it a thumbs down, because steam deck performance just is not there. it's labelled as "playable", but i had to work off an older proton version, as it does not work out of the box for me, and still has frequent crashes.

tl;dr fine game, would still tell you to play it, but steam deck performance is by all metrics abysmal.
