Minimum requirements

Even if your computer falls short of the minimum requirements, the game will probably start - but that does not mean you will actually be able to play.

If your computer is better than the minimum configuration but below the recommended one, set all graphics options to minimum. That keeps the game running fast, although you will not get to enjoy its full beauty.

Comfortable requirements

Maximum speed even at maximum graphics settings. On such a machine you can fully appreciate the beauty of the game world and hold your own in large-scale battles.
