    Hello, forum. So, the game just went on sale on the Humble Store and I just wanted to know if I could run this game, since it looks awesome and I love me some RTS games.

    Hey Death -

    Technically you're about 1 GB short on memory (We have a min requirement of 4GB), and your video card is below our min spec (We set a 4850 as our Min Spec for ATI cards).

    All that said, you might be able to run the game, but I think it's unlikely you'll have a very enjoyable experience.

    Alright, thanks for the insight. Is there any insight for optimization in the future? If so, I might buy it now so I can keep it to play later.

    Well, we have and continue to optimize the game as much as we can, but to guarantee a solid experience for anyone who plays, we're unlikely to drop our min spec - though that could happen. Your hardware is about 6+ years old at this point, so it's kind of behind the line of where we realistically be able to see good game perf.

    Ok, thanks. I'll try to upgrade to a desktop PC in early-mid 2015, so buying it now should be a great investment. Thanks a lot for the help.
