gamesfreak64: you can forget it to run this game on Quad Core 2.66 Ghz Intel , no way , it looks a lot like Pillars , my bet is 90% they also used Unity so ,not recommended to run this game on a Quad Core 2.66 Ghz Intel
faroot: It's not a public service to tell people not to buy a game just because you have a wild *guess* and a *feeling* based on having a lot of unrelated games.
They did take the trouble to show higher levels "Recommended" for OS and for graphics card (660 Ti minimum, GTX 1050 recommended), but they list the same CPU requirements for both Minimum and Recommended.
You're saying that what they said very explicitly is wrong. I say "citation needed". Don't be the person who spreads baseless rumors.
We'll find out in 3/4 days if they lied about the specifications required; there will be immediate user complaints (and lots of refunds) if so. Until then, chill.
i never spread baseless rumors...... nor based rumors , i play games > 40 years I KNOW by experience that many devs ( especially the casual games developers) do NOT know their min. requirements, some steam games had a min. req. , that was much higher then mine , i waited till sales, bought the game and it ran pretty well....
one game warned me that my current gpu drivers might not make the game run well... the game runs well enough , so mistakes are being made :D. afteral, we are all human... and we make mistakes
I dont want to go into any discussion , just wanted to tell what i experience with my quad core,
i5 750 2.66 ghz ( turbo boost to max 3.2 ghz) 4 cores : REAL cores no 'virtual' but physical .
GTX 750 ti 2 GB
Anyway planning to get an i7 at least a 8400 or 8500 or maximum: a i7- 9700K with 6 GB GTX 1060 gpu( later maybe to be replaced by a better one) cause i dont want i5 anymore(, unless its for free :D)

save the frustrations.
LeonKillsAshley: Both Legend of Grimrock games used an engine developed in-house. I also remember some time after Grimrock 2 was released Petri Hakkinen (one of the developers on Grimrock and Druidstone) had mentioned that he was working on a brand new engine for their next game which turned out to be Druidstone. Therefore, this game does not use Unity. I also would not be surprised if this game ran on relatively low end hardware since both Grimrock games run exceptionally well.
Also, in my opinion this game looks nothing like Pillars of Eternity.
Unity has frame issues ,game i have seem to be running at>60fps.
I have pillars ( the first game that i)s , cant run properly on my current pc,will try it when i have a much better setup( price will almost be doubled, but thats because things get only more expensive , dont want to waste cash by buying older model (2or4 years old)
Anyway this will take a while to save for it :D
