TL;DR: System requirements are ranging from M1 to M1 Pro or better Apple silicon chips. The game is priced at $60 on Steam.

    Dropping my M2 Air 16GB settings in case it’s useful:

    • All graphic settings at LOW (except textures I have at Ultra w/ anisotropic x16)
    • FSR1 activated at Performance (this is a MUST)
    • U3421WE Ultrawide native res is 3440x1440, I run at 2752x1152
    • Anti-aliasing I have off because I don’t like this blurry stuff
    • Everything else is off
    • Gives stable 40 FPS, sure graphics are not great, but it’s very much playable

      I have the same hardware and play everything at ultra at 2000something x 1440 resolution. I did not measure FPS, but it does not stutter and videos are sharp. This is on the internal display. I have to see how it performs on my 4K display. Any good method to measure FPS?

        Yeah just open terminal and type /bin/launchctl setenv MTL\_HUD\_ENABLED 1

        I’m curious how you can run it at ultra. Maybe my 3440 ultrawide makes such a big difference?

          2000somethingx1600 is on the internal Display of that MacBook Air and it might be that my expectations to graphics FPS wise are not very high. Normally I play Civilisation or Kerbal Space Program and one of my most loved games is Master of Orion 1 on a whooping 640x480 pixels. I’ll check later, what FPS I get.

          Ok. KSP and its 5 SPF gameplay did lower my expectations to modern games, apparently. Looks like I run BG3 around 15 to 25 FPS 🙃 . This is on the internal display. I didn’t test the external one.

      Running on an iMac M1. Thanks for the tip about FSR1.

      At similar settings except

      • Resolution 1680 x 945
      • Textures on High, not Ultra

      I get around 35fps playable enough
