Speaking of AoE II, a couple of months back I bought the "HD remake" of it on Steam.
I was a bit disappointed in the remake with regards to how they handled the sizing of the UI.
Every part of the UI is very small on my high resolution (2560 x 1440) display.
Not what I expected when they market it as a HD remake.
I searched the internet to see if anyone else was disappointed and found that indeed I was not alone.
Here is one example of what others are saying: https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1bslgq/why_is_the_user_interface_on_aoe2_hd_so_small/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/1bslgq/why_is_the_us...
Still, AoE II was a good game and I have fond memories of it from my childhood.

- milcron 10y agoI agree in that I'd call it more of an HD "refactor" than a remake. The HD version supports all sorts of resolutions, whereas the original game was restricted to just 800x600, 1024x768, and 1280x1024!
