I literally can't play this game, my PC has 16GB of RAM and it runs out of free memory after like 10 minutes and crashes to desktop. When your "fix" is to just buy more RAM or increase your page file size, then your game is a fucking scam. I understand new games require more powerful hardware, but this is Amazon lumberyard ffs.

It's not even that new anymore. A 1080ti was tip of the spear graphics technology when this game first became "playable."

It's actually not lumber yard anymore, it started from that but they've Rewritten most of it. And they literally show you the code and such during their like 2+hr devs videos. It's never going to release but the technology is actually genuinely impressive.

Sadly 16GB just isn't much anymore. Windows alone will happily eat 4, steam sometimes 2 for no reason (usually not but can happen when it's web process leaks) games like icarus claim minimum recommendation is 24.

Which is absolutely insane and developers need to get their shit together but it's just the way things are going.
