I want to buy it .. but

[Drakonar]

my graphics card is way worse than the minimum requirements, can I run this on an old 1050 ti 4gb? I mean the graphic don't look demanding, is the game demanding graphically?

According to some it is. Search the forum for such.

Guessing you would be taking quite a risk.

Game is not optimised and can be all over the place with the FPS/GPU usage... u could buy it and refund it before the max play time runs out for refunds?

There is a black screen issue with older graphics cards. The devs added a fix, putting in the option to ''disable the sky' which gets rid of it.

The black screen issue will return but just going back to the setting page where you checked the Disable option will make it go away again.

Read that was to do with old cards like the GTX 900s based on the Maxwell architecture. The 1050s are based on Pascal.

The disable sky option was to address black screen issues for 900 series nvidia GPUs. Though I imagine it would help a lot with fps on 1000 series cards as well. Having said that you would probably need to turn some sliders down to get any kind of performance. Even with that, if you're running a 1050 the concern would primarily be your CPU and the amount of RAM you have available. I would assume if you haven't updated your GPU then it's not likely you've done any other updates to your system. So your whole system in general is probably not compatible with the game. It might run the game, but probably not very well and not at a high fidelity.

Assuming you're playing in 1080p resolution I think you could run the game, but would need to turn down the LOD (the distance at which the game will render objects), Shadow Distance would need to be turned down (maybe all the way down). These are sliders in the graphics options menu. I would also suggest setting Render Quality to Low (also in the graphics options) and possibly the Disable Sky option. I would disable sky last, try it with the sky enabled and see where your fps lands. Disable it if it's not at an acceptable level. This might get you to a playable state on your current system. If you could play on a 720p resolution monitor you would probably have a better go of it, but at 1080p this might get it playable. You might need to restart the game client every couple hours, as your performance will degrade over time due to low VRAM on your GPU. But I think you might be able to get it to a playable state. If you do buy, do this testing immediately so that if it doesn't work out you're under the 2 hr window on Steam's refund policy.

Thanks! I will prolly just take the 40$ add 150$ and buy a better gpu with a new psu, I just thought since the game graphics do no not look revolutionary , kinda similar to project gorgon, the minimum reqs are exaggerated unfortunately nope.

Honestly, the best thing you can do. If you do not have a computer that can run this then you are deeply in need of a new computer and should funnel funds torwards obtaining one.

I installed Pantheon a second time on my little media PC in the basement out of curiosity. It has an old RTX 2060 with 6GB VRAM. A 6-core/12 thread older 4Ghz CPU, 32GB ddr4.
To my surprise, it runs at a locked 60fps at 1080p with high settings there.
I prefer it on my newer 4070ti office PC at higher res, but I was impressed by the older PC's results.
Having said that, your 4GB card is facing an uphill battle in 2025.
I'd recommend a main PC gaming rig with a minimum 8GB VRAM.
Even at 1080p/1440p, these days 8GB is the 'safe' minimum if you hope to play at somewhat attractive visual settings with a 60~fps performance.

If you need to play Pantheon at 720p with crappy settings to get a decent frame rate because the 4GB VRAM chokes you out, I'd say it's not worth coping with the sh!tty visuals. Time for an upgrade.

This game makes my PC build 3 years ago absolutely crank and that is definitely a bad thing. Who needs a space heater for the winter when this thing has my PC pumping out heat like star citizen.

Why not buy a PC for gaming before spending $40 and 60 on games?

Even I can work that one out!!
