I am a huge fan of the Myst series and have played all the games multiple times. I was so excited when FIRMAMENT was introduced. Then I discovered they designed it so it required an upgraded graphic card. I would have to replace the Intl 4600 graphic card on one of my 4 laptops in order to play the game.... not going to happen. I also prefer mouse rather than keyboard controls. Sorry Cyan World but I think you lost a lot of old time Myst lovers . . . including me. Comments?

Similar issue. I have Nvidia GeForce 1050 and one place I checked said it was not enough. I could also use Intel UHD Graphics 630, but evidently that won't work either. Does anyone know for sure?

Email support@cyan.com and attach a copy of your PC's DxDiag report. They can confirm what the issue may be.
Can't quite remember but I think the 1050 should technically work. There's a video of someone playing it on a 1060. I don't see the 1050 as being a limitation for non-VR playing.

The FPS may be too low however. That's about 50% less performance than a 1060. So, whatever the 1060 gets, you have to find at least 50% more fps from settings, etc. I don't know if you can find that much.

@ADK12 As far as the Intel hd 4600, that GPU... The games you need to play are not recent graphical based. You're looking for old ones or ugly based games. It just so happens that a lot of people began making games at a point in time and many of those game devs decided to regress in graphics. That's really the only way you can play x percentage of recent games. It also helps that mobile games too were regressed as well for a while. Many of them are not so much anymore.
