What do you think is the best resolution to play AoE IV, and how many inches is best to have the screen?

While they could say that more is better, I feel that by having more pixels, you can sometimes lose focus of the entire larger scene.

The thing is that I want to buy a better Monitor that supports HDMI and well, I need to know if it would be better to add more inches, or if I would rather stick with a small one. For the current one I have several capturess.



This is my current resolution at 1600x900 in Medium quality (Not even High and it already looks great) with an 8 GB graphics card.

I don’t know how it will be for the rest, if you can post your captures to compare it would be great.

Take care.

You will notice a GREAT improvement by going to 1920x1080 (full HD). I recommend you a 24 inch monitor with this resolution.

Less inches would be too small, and 27 inches is too big for a full HD considering you play near the monitor (in a standard distance).

If you want something more, go with 27-32 inches 2K resolution. It depends also of your graphic card. If you got a good one, go for 2K, if it’s a normal one, go for full HD.

I played for many years in 1920x1080 in 21 or 24 inches, and when I get to 2K 27 inches at first it seemed too big, but now I can’t go back.
