Minimal requirements should be updated
The game annoyed me from the very start, mainly horrendous requirements (for a game that looks worse than Fallout 1) and by that I not only mean hardware but also software. It requires .Net Framework 4 which weighs more than the game itself AND Windows Media Player installed. WTF?

Compared to Age of Decadence (which even a noob like me can run on linux and doesn't need additional ♥♥♥♥ that weighs more than the game itself just to run it) it looks amateurish at best. Not to mention that AoD is far more inventive, has more unique setting, way better dialogues (in that regard only Fallout 1 or Planescape: Torment can compete) and more interesting characters and story. Plus the fights are much more enjoyable. The only Underrail advantage is the price but I can see why now.

Anyway, there should be more info in the minimal requirements section, not just "Win XP SP3" (since I have that, I also have .Net Framework but older version and so far every decent program has worked just fine). So in order to make this game work, unless you have more than 1.2 GB of free space you need to use gparted (or some other good "partition magic" clone), change the size of your windows partition, install ♥♥♥♥ty WMP and then and maybe then it will work.

The WIN32 API is dead.
Now absolutely everything is being created on the platform. NET
The game is modern and just adapting and following the same path of the Windows operating system.
