Minimum system resolution requirements accuracy?

Post by suprnova74 »

One of the requirements I saw for minimum system requirements is 1920x1080 resolution. Is that truly accurate? I'd hate to be turning people away potentially because they have a laptop or older monitor that can't handle that resolution.

My current monitor is 1920x1080 but I can run the game in windowed mode at much smaller and it operates just fine. I've also run it on a previous computer that had a 1280x800 again with no issues.

We just don't want to deal with bug reports of people playing in small resolutions and having messed up GUIs

I'll add that I have a craptop that is only 720p, and the game looks/runs just fine at 75% GUI scaling.
Don't forget, you're here forever.
