I get that the games need better hardware to dun better, but who are they really making the game for if you need a 6000$ GPU at this point

For a poorly optimized* UE5 game. Nothing in this game looks graphically impressive, it's standard UE5.

Wouldn’t it help get publicity if they are crazy high like this? I feel like if u wanted to play the game you were gonna play either way
