Wow sounded interesting so I checked in steam - the new one needs minimum 12GB ram???!

sir this is 2023

16GB is the new 8GB of 2014. Even so, we're starting to see top triple A games use upwards of 20GB.

I somehow read this as 128GB and was ready to share your shock.

Dude you're seriously still stuck with 8GB?

If you're still on DDR3, I have a spare 8GB 1600MHz stick in my old PC. I'll sell it to you for a good price.

It's a stick of RAM. Wrap it in bubble wrap, shove it in an envelope, stick a couple of stamps on it, and send it on its way.

That's not unusual. Or do you mean vram? Still not surprising with the detail level in the game.

[–] TotallyTerry@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Definitely doesn't need 12gb of vram so they mean ram which 16gb should be the minimum for anyone's system nowadays.
