A heavily compressed jpeg isn’t the best source material – just saying
Grass looks amazing on 4K screen. Can’t wait to play this game on Game Pass
Additional Notes: 4 GB of video RAM
Relic recommends a 970
November looks like a great month to pay for a single month of game pass. Halo, Age of Empires IV, Forza 5… 3 game rentals for $10 sounds like a solid deal.
Don’t forget about Back 4 Blood and Psychonauts 2
People keep talking about how the graphics look disappointing in 2021.
Meanwhile I just keep thinking about all those scalped €2000 GPUs that I’m not buying a single one of and can just continue to play this game on low settings.
btw Starcraft 2 was the same and people b**ched about the graphics there too.
Reqs are quite high for a game that looks like is made for tablets.
Hope it will be great but i wont hold my breath after the blunder relic pulled of with DoW3, that game has 48% on steam… with over 10k votes
Minimum Gpu requirement is Intel HD 520. Damn, this game must be really scalable in terms of graphics settings
