That a game on PC has minimum requirements is something that we all know forever. It is an enumeration of a series of components that our computer must have and that if we do not overcome it, it is very certain that we will not obtain a rewarding enough experience to make it worth spending a penny. The problem is that in the case of Uncharted Legacy of Thieves it is Sony that has decided not to give options those who have hardware that is too outdated.
Should I buy it or not?
Another reason why PC developers have been telling us what the minimum requirements for a game are all their lives is to avoid problems with users. If they were not well printed on the box (when sold in physical format) or visible in the product description of the digital store, anyone who couldn’t make it run on their team could claim a refund or take refuge in a lawsuit even more harmful to the interests of the manufacturer, in this case Sony.
Anyway, let’s remember what the minimum requirements of the game are:
- Operating system: Windows 10 64-bit
- Processor: Intel i5-4330 / AMD Ryzen 3 1200
- Memory: 8GB RAM
- Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 960 (4GB) or AMD R9 290X (4GB)
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: 126 GB of available space
Now, we are all clear about what those minimum requirements of Uncharted Legacy of Thieves but if we don’t, why doesn’t Sony let us try to see if we can play it somehow? That is precisely what is causing some controversy in the community, since a small number of gamers they are meeting a complete inability to run the game in cases where they hardly meet one of the requirements imposed by the Japanese.
What is happening?
Thus, in some forums (Steam, Reddit, etc.) they are offering user testimonials who have bought the game and who do not meet one of all the minimum requirements. One of those cases says that it complies with the operating system, the amount of RAM, even the graphics card, but the notice that the processor “is not supported” by the game jumps out. That buyer thinks it would perform without problems but right now you can’t verify it because the execution block imposed by Sony is immovable.
For example, that minimum processor that asks us Uncharted Legacy of Thieves It belongs to a generation of Intel that was launched on the market in the last quarter of 2013, so it is about to turn nine years old. That date could be a good barometer of which teams can still make him run.
For now, that ban remains in place. you will not be able to enjoy the game if you do not have, above all, that processor that the Japanese demand in the minimum requirements. So if you find yourself in the same situation and have bought the game, remember that if you have not completed two hours of play and 14 days have not passed since you purchased it, you are entitled to a full refund of the amount you spent.
And seen how Sony has become, surely it will cost you more to think about buying it when your PC has been renewed for a model with more power. Don’t you think?
