    I don't want to buy the game not knowing if my computer will be able to handle it.
    I have a ASUS Vivobook 15 X512FA-EJ916.
    8GB RAM, intelcore i7 and an intel UHD graphics 620.

    Anyone can help me figure out if it will be able to run the game?

    I honestly don't know about the computer, but i7 should be enough in terms of intelcore...

    Is the game too big to run on a laptop with 4GB with RAM and 931GB of storage?

    If I'm not remembering it wrong they list everything necessary about what you need for specs, ram etc on steam somewhere?

    But I got told some people were able to play the beta on pretty bad computers. But I've seen that people been updating their computers just for the game as well to be able to play.

    My PC is really old and I doubt it will run - it has trouble playing (vanilla) Minecraft! I guess I'll have to get a new computer...

    If you want to see the game even tho you can't play it yet there is going to be a lot of people livestreaming it when it launches!

    Since everyone is talking about graphics, I might as well put them in here

    SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

    • MINIMUM:
      • Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
      • OS: Windows 7 (SP1+)/8.1/10 64bit
      • Processor: Intel i5-2500 / AMD FX-6350
      • Memory: 8 GB RAM
      • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 (2GB) / AMD Radeon R9 270X (2GB)
      • Storage: 16 GB available space
      • Additional Notes: Minimum specifications may change during development

    • RECOMMENDED:
      • Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
      • OS: Windows 10 64bit
      • Processor: Intel i7-4770k / AMD Ryzen 5 1600

    This should help when hunting for a PC to play it on

    Then ask people who do. Also while computer shopping in person, print out these specs to show.

    Hi, this is a bit random...does the game come in a disk format? Or is it downloaded onto the computer?
