That emulation of DirectDraw by the way is trash. Age of Empires II practically redlines my Alienware which can run Sins of a Solar Empire without breaking a sweat.
- Bartweiss 10y agoSomehow all of the remastered Ages games ended up running on it. They'll happily choke computers that can handle the latest-and-greatest FPS, just because most of their cycles are being spent on god knows what.
- FussyZeus 10y agoI admit this is my side computer, it's far from the latest and greatest (that's the other one on my desk, heh) I don't use it for a ton other than playing longer strategy games while relaxing in my home office, but I was shocked when a game from 1999 actually managed to overheat it.
- Bartweiss 10y agoEven if it's only a machine for strategy games, it's awfully surprising. If I can crank XCOM to high graphics on something, it shouldn't be struggling on a game 15 years older.
