My favorite game of all time!

Played this game since the original release of AOE 3. This is my favorite AOE game due to the multiplayer competitiveness. The Definitive Edition gives it new life and is always a fun game to jump back on! Now with Steam integration my hotkeys are forever saved.

+ New graphics
+ Loads of new content
+ Multiplayer improvements

- Random crashes (check below)
- Resource hog even on top end GPUs

EDIT: Seems to be related to how the game handles newer CPUs. Check forums or discussions on how to set CPU Affinity. Ever since the release of all the new DLCs. There is now constant crashing issues and no it is not my PC as I tried it on 3 PCs with the same outcome and everything updated... Also, no issues on other games.
