Demo working with integrated intel graphics - full game too?

Hello Factorio Team,

I just played the demo on my linux box and i instantly liked the game. The demo runs fine on my thinkpad x220 with integrated Intel graphics.
In your system requirements youre saying one should have a dedicated graphics card as a minimum, but as the demo ran that good im wondering
if i could still run the full game with lower settings on my laptop (i dont need hd graphics, I just want to have fun with the game).

Thank you in advance for your help!

the game should at least be playable, as long as you don't make any megafactories

The most important thing is not the GPU power, but the VRAM. Factorio uses a surprisingly high quantity of VRAM, and the difference between demo and full game is mostly in VRAM requirements.
If you can allocate enough VRAM to your integrated graphic chipset, it should be OK.
