So my computer's really not what I would call a "high end" machine and often I find it's a dice roll to see whether or not I can get something running on it. And I'm on the fence about pre-ordering POE 2 even with Wasteland 2 because I am not sure it's going to be able to run it very well. I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a POE 2 demo out there.
You mean some kind of preview? The game isn't even finished/released yet.
Maybe, but I'm sure it's 'backers-only' then. If you can't find it on the official website, then it doesn't exist or it's not for you.
Look for the demo on pirate bay in early May. ;p

The game is coming out in a month. You can pre order it. I don't think it's really unreasonable to expect there might be a demo out there by now if there was one.

But I guess you're right. The only thing I have been able to find is the backer beta which isn't publicly available so I guess I will have to skip pre ordering this one.

what about posting your system specs here?
Then we might be able to figure out if your computer gonna be able to run it.
In general Pillars 2 has quite the reeasonable requirements

For sure. I only ask because I've been able to get some games to run that I apparently shouldn't be able to such as Dying Light while other games that I think I should be able to just get my system to absolutely crawl. The thing is, I am pretty fine with running newer games on the lowest graphics settings if they aren't complete garbage. I don't ask for much. Maybe a little better than passable visuals. But some of the stuff I've seen in POE 2 kind of gives me a bit of hesitation about whether or not I can get this game running in a playable state. Generally, I have to give it a pass if it was released past 2013 as a general rule of thumb.

Anyway, here's my pertinent system information.

'f off with this crap man.

Anyway if you can play the original I'm sure you can play the sequel, though you might need to turn down some effects.
interesting, that the minimum and recommended specs are same both for PoE and PoE 2, although PoE 2 is released 3 years later .. not too many engine improvements ?

hey man, if they aren't gonna give us a demo, that's about the only way some of us will be able to know if POE is gonna run on our shit or not

'F off yerself, d-wad.
Not going to get into a pointless piracy debate that will go nowhere. Suffice it to say I'm against it, and it shouldn't be promoted on a store forum like this one.

I'll tell you what I'm against: I'm against billions of people having to endure a lower quality of life than the average American pet. That's the sort of thing that rustles my jimmies, bro. Not piddling grievances like "piracy".
