That's why I said, for every particular user it is different and you cannot say which one is better. If you like IDE, than use it, if you like vim/emacs, then use vim or emacs. They all are tools after all, what matters is the code you write with them.
This post wasn't to convince people to use vim instead of an IDE, but for people who like vim, but don't use it foe missing certain features :)
Regarding vim being an editor from the early 90's:
Windows is an OS from 1985. MacOS from 2001. Linux, as mentioned above, is from 1991. If none of that means anything to you, how about this - InteliJ IDEA is an IDE from 2001. Sounds pretty outdated to me ;-).
My point is, you can't judge how outdated something is by its initial release, but by its latest release. Vim's latest release was literally 6 hours ago. And the one before that, 8 hours. The one before that was less than an hour before the next one. Far from being outdated, vim is in very active development.
