But it's still ancient Rome, and I like Rome 2.

Having played it lots at release I can't recall it being botched.
outside the claims it was botched because any Windows version before Wind 10 wasn't being supported.
They didn't go back on that one and Win10 is still a requirement.
the UI got some complaints but that's a "personal" things I'd find. I'm indifferent about that. Doesn't look better or worse then the original..but again that's a personal opinion.
It made improvements and also made those improvements optional if you wish to play it like it was with the original.
For me the upgrade to remaster was just 10€ because I already owned the original on Steam. A fair price to get the game to run properly again.
