How will it run?
Do tell how's the game performing if anyone with similiar spec as mine. I'm saving up money for it and i just wish its atleast on the playable scale. My spec:
CPU: Intel i7-8565U
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce MX150
RAM: 8GB
VRAM: 2GB
Tried the demo and it's running at 25+ on the mines area and 10+ on the kingdom area which is not the best, idk if they improved the optimization on release.
Just wanna know if someone got similiar wares as mine and if they're experiencing the same performance.

At least for me there wasn't much difference between how the demo and full game run.

Keep in mind that you should go to Windows settings > graphics > find for the game's exe and set high priority so that the game will use your gpu, full game runs just like demo, they recently added AA setting under graphic options

^ this. but maybe also consider an upgrade for your ram from 8gb to 16gb, in general it will help with all your games, not just Metaphor.

The game is mostly cell shaded and stylized so it shouldn't be demanding at all.

I got a 3060ti and the game runs at 165FPS capped and almost never dips, and if it does it's a micro dip.

You're way under minimum specs with only 8GB of RAM and 2GB of VRAM. The graphics options are *not* extensive, most you can do it lower the resolution scaling, turn on Normal textures and all that other stuff to minimum. I think you'd have to dig into the .ini file or use some mods to run this game at a smoother rate than "slideshow" especially with how bombastic some of the attack animations are.

Oh, i have no performance issue for the combat it's smooth like butter. it's only laggy in some areas with complex environment, and even then its not entirely unplayable, so i guess i'll try it out. Definitely will try digging out the ini files though thanks!

Optimization can only take you so far when you're WAY under minimum requirement specs.

rtx 2060 super i7 intel something or other, 16g ram

game runs at a smooth 60fps with reshade and antialiasing. but only on NORMAL texture quality.

for some reason HIGH quality makes the game hitch a lot in loadscreens/transitions
the quality difference isnt worth so I play on normal, reshade helps even it out.

i tried the demo again, it's only laggy on the populated kingdom area and places with high vegetation. Other than that it's running 40+fps which i'm satisfied with

Good news!

I didn't see your post before writing this:

The demo plays well on my laptop with GTX 1050 2GB VRAM. It runs well with normal graphics textures. However, my system has 16GB RAM.

The GeForce MX150 seems about half as powerful as the 1050.

Best to try the demo and see for yourself!

I did!
how many fps are you getting on the demo with your specs? seems like the only thing differentiating the performance is our RAM and GPU which as you said, not far apart by a long shot.
