This is mostly for people who are wondering if they can run games on their craptops like mine.
Modern is like from 2010?? in my mind 2010 is still recent.
I know there are minimum requirements shown, but I Iike having some anecdotal info, maybe you do too.
FYI, I'm not very picky on graphics. I am pretty picky on fps, especially for fast paced games. bad fps gives me headaches. If you like nice visuals, don't use Intel HD GPUs. Better CPUs probably help too.
Specs:
Intel i3-6100U @ 2.3GHz
8 Gb RAM
Intel HD 520 GPU
Right now I'm playing Grim Dawn at around 40-60 fps.
Pretty much everything on low as hell except textures? Also NO shadows at all.
Also turned res down to 1280 x 720.
In my experience, shadows destroy my setup. Probably the setting that drains the most frames.
Also not having anything else running in the background.
Other newer games that ran fine (with low graphics settings most of the time)
- Divinity OS 1. Enhanced Edition.
- X-Com Enemy Unknown Complete
- Dragon Age: Origins (Probably stretching the 'new' game genre it's almost 10 years old)
- Ziggurat (Ran well enough for me to play for like 2 hours, then I got bored. Playable though)
Games that were unplayable, most probably due to stutter/low ass fps, even after tweaking.
- The Witcher 2
- Dragon's Dogma
- Shadow Warrior 2
I'll periodically update the list, maybe.
