Legitimate question: I just picked up this laptop for work related purposes and the only point of contention I see is the processor. While a minimum processor speed isn't quoted for requirements, it is running at 1GHz. The resolution is good, the memory is good, graphics (while being the literally lowest end 8k series chip) is a higher number than the 4770, so hopefully that'll mean something. Higher series, wrong class... if you know what I mean.
Anyway, my question is, is anyone running the game with similar or bare minimum specs? I can't imagine the game performs... really at all, but I'm not looking to FATE or run dungeons. I'd be happy just fishing, or crafting while I'm sitting at my desk at work with some downtime.
Any thoughts, experiences, or advice besides buy a better laptop? Thanks in advance everyone :D
