This or AOE 4 in a Laptop?

Hi!
I want to buy one of these games, but I am using my acer nitro 5 (GTX 1650 AMD Ryzen 5)
Currently I can run TWH 2 pretty ok, high settings and good fps.
I would prefer TWH 3 but I am not sure if there is going to be a big update in the PCrequirements, while AOE 4 obiously has less requirements.
What do you think?
Thank you!

It's the same engine, therefore similar requirements as WH2. AOE IV is outdated in almost every aspect.

AOE4 = Xbox game, so yeah you'll have no issue there. Highly doubt be pushing envelope, if it is a performance hog be down to poor optimisation on developer end.
WH3 = be same engine with improvements shipped into it from TK3 and Troy, engine wise. In ideal world may even run better than 2, and look better across wider range of systems but...yeah, wouldn't hold your breathe on that, prob be same relative graphics fidelity and performance as WH2, as first poster said.

Ultimately comes down to preference imo.

Do you want a more classic style RTS game set in historical setting?
Or do you want Warhammer fantasy battles with daemons etc with combo of real time and 4x gameplay?

Want a simpler or more complex strategy game is how that comparison forms in my brain, as don't think performance of either game be much of a deciding factor in the long run for your rig.

Get WH3. I'm absolutely not biased. Cough.

I have hopes for AoE, but it's no WH3.

Edit: Just wait for closer to release reviews about performance.

Ok, I guess I will buy TWH. Thank you all!
