Will this run decently on my laptop?

Yes, it's below the minimum requirements and it's basically a toaster. I don't need anything fancy and I don't care much about FPS or graphics, as long as it's playable (i.e. not a slide-show, no constant crashes, no 5-10-minute loading screens)

I can run games like Oblivion and DA: Origins pretty nicely, for whatever that's worth. Here are the specs:

Processor: Intel Core i5-6200U (3M Cache up to 2.80 GHz)
Memory: 4GB Dual-channel DDR4 RAM
Storage: 128GB Solid State Drive
Display: 13.3" Full HD Touch Display
Operating System: Windows 10

If anyone has a similar computer, please let me know how the game works for ya! I really want to play it but can't afford to shell out cash for a new computer atm.

NOTE: "Can I Run It" say it won't work, but that site has literally never been right on much of anything, in my experience.

You forgot to tell about your graphics hardware. The rest is completely sufficient.

Note that the game's minimum requirements aren't strict. It runs on low-end desktop computers, and the graphics requirements are low, too.

Thanks.

I just have the basic integrated Intel(R) HD Graphics 520. Again, not really meant for gaming, I know, but I've had ridiculous luck with it time and again.

Does that change things?

P.S. It's a 64-bit system. Forgot to mention that.

Then beware! Google knows various topics that show poor performance with that hardware, such as:

The game doesn't need a lot of 3D power, since area backgrounds are pre-rendered and most environmental animations are 2D sprites. A most you will see a little bit of stress if rotating and watching the large character models on the character creation screen. That shouldn't be a major problem. However, the poorly optimized Unity engine requires quite some 2D graphics processing power, especially for combat effects and animations.

The minimum requirements for the game list the ATI Radeon HD 4850 or Nvidia GeForce 9600 GT, and first of all, that is not strictly a minimum. The game runs with lower spec'ed desktop graphics, too, provided that they are good at GPU features the game needs. Secondly, the Radeon HD 4850 plays is in a completely different league than the Geforce 9600 GT, so comparing them with an "or" is highly questionable. Finally, GPU benchmarks cannot be trusted, if it isn't known what GPU features the game needs the most. The Intel HD 520 is also shown as outclassing the Geforce 9600 GT a bit, but since the latter is for desktop graphics and considered as one to meet the minimum requirements, I would be careful.

Refund time limit at Steam is two hours of playtime within two weeks.
