6GB VRAM? Minimum Specs say 4GB
I'm lowering every option in the menu and it is saying i'm using next to 6gb of VRAM?
I only have 4GB, how do I lower it even further? All options to lower the memory have been enabled/disabled.

I don't think you can play it. If I were you I'd just get it on the PS5. You would have a much more enjoyable experience. You'd probably have to drop the resolution or something like that.

If you exceed VRAM it should be ok. Just dont go higher than medium. See this video to compare. You may have same, worse, or better performance depending on differences.

I played with 4, enable a setting like DLSS/FSR and enable a frame limit, like 30 for example to avoid stutters/noticeable dips. It's not perfect but it's very much playable like this.

Wouldn't you rather play it on the PS5 at 60 fps? I don't get this urge to play things on a pc when the game runs better on the console.

Does the person already have a ps5, as if they don't I can think of a few hundred dollars worth of reasons why they don't want to get one. Lets also be clear nothing about there post or profile suggests they own a ps5.

Beyond that playing with a m+k for example is a huge plus for many and with good enough hardware the game on pc is notably a better experience then ps5.

Also lets be clear about ps5, it is 1440p, with drops into the low 50's. It is hardly a perfect experience there either. Solid, but not a locked 60.

A console is too expensive to buy for the sake of a single game and you'd have to find somewhere to place it, which may not be possible if the space around your TV is cluttered. Also, buying games for a console means you won't be able to play them in the future unless you dust off your old console, whereas your Steam games always stay with you as long as Steam exists.
