I see this shit more and more lately, with games, especially from "indie" developers, having a 4GB VRAM requirement. Look faggots, if Doom 2016 could work pretty damn well on a 2GB card, plus Witcher maxed out, plus Deus Ex Mankind Divided, plus Fallout 4, plus the Tomb Raiders, hell, even Ass Creed Odyssey and Far Cry 5/New Dawn, you have no excuse for requiring a 4GB gpu.
I KNOW WHAT THAT ISREEEEEEmakes
How long until normies stop mindlessly letting old franchises be used as publicity
I should break out my old PC ROMs and patch it up for Win10 tho.
Is the remake just that - the old one that works better and is prettier - or are the game sufficiently different I should play both.
When Pillars of Eternity came out I had a Radeon 4850 and all I could get was around 20FPS max if I disabled AA. In a game where the only 3D objects are the characters.Other games in Unity don't demand such ridiculous specs. I suppose it's lack of optimization/competence as well.

From what i've seen (didn't buy the game myself) the remake is a beat-for-beat remake of the old game, except worse and uglier. So it looks like if you have played the original then you do not need play this one and if you haven't played the original then play that one instead.
Official Statement by Microids & Playmagic regarding XIII
Greetings,
The highly anticipated remake of XIII, awaited by many fans, came out earlier this week. Unfortunately, players expectations have not been met by the launch version and we hear loud and clear the legitimate criticism and disappointment.
First and foremost, we would like to offer our most sincere apologies for the game’s technical issues. In its present state, XIII does not meet our quality standards and we fully understand players’ frustrations. The pandemic has impacted the game’s production on many levels. Pivoting to home working for the teams has added unexpected delays in the development schedule and the QA process. We hoped we would be able to provide a Day One patch fixing all the issues but the development of this update is taking more time than expected.
We want to assure you that PlayMagic is working hard to solve all the game’s issues. With live monitoring and multiple patches in the upcoming days and weeks, we hope to reach the quality level we all expect for the optimum gaming experience. The first update will be pushed shortly to fix the most urgent issues regarding the controls, frame rate, collisions, rendering and sound. For information about the upcoming patches, please follow this link: https://www.microids.com/xiii-patch-notes/
In addition, we wanted to thank the community for all the feedback. We are reviewing every single comment carefully, passing along the bugs and issues to the development team. Feel free to send us your feedback and questions to: support@microids.com
Finally, know that we are working on a detailed road map highlighting the upcoming free additions to the game content like new levels, weapons, skins and modes for the local multiplayer.
We are aiming to please all the XIII fans and we’ll work relentlessly to achieve our goal.

The original game had checkpoints as well - which was the major drawback for me, since in some levels they were badly and scarcely placed and the basic difficulty of the levels also varied a lot.I bet that the original has save everywhere, while the remake has checkpoints.
