How does the game run on lower end PC's?

[Megatron Prime]

Thinking of picking up this game before the sale ends and to complete my mainline FF collection (minus 14 and 15), but I wanted to know how well it would run since its basically a PS4 remaster

I can run games like Lightning Returns and Dark Souls Remastered at 60 fps, so how well would my laptop hold up to this game?

What is "low end" by your definition?

For comparison - i ran the game on an i5 760 (midrange CPU from 2010) with an R7 280X ( midrange 2013) - nearly maxed settings, 60 FPS.

So Laptop? That can be anything from 1/10th the power to many times more poweful.
Without any actual information nobody can help you.

Well its an i5-1035g1 with an UHD 630 graphics processor and 8 gigs of ram. Considering its an intergrated graphics card, I consider it fairly low end, but able to play most games from the PS3/Xbox 360 era of gaming

OK then - you can "play" the game, on lowest settings, at maybe 20-30FPS.
While the game is a remaster of an old PS2 game the thing is - it was written for PS2 and is still internally running the PS2 code, using a thin wrapper to emulate part of the hardware, and that just makes it way less efficient than it coult be.

I am not sure how tolerant you are about low framerates but for me that is playable enough.
(Also - ... with the i5-1035G4 or i5-1035G7 it would be was more pleasant.)

yeah so the game is actually quite demanding but I have a powerful rig so it's fine for me, the usual recommendation is just to not have ambient occlusion maxed out

[Korana Noth]

I'm playing on a 10 year old CPU with a 7 year old GPU on maxed settings. I don't use an FPS monitor or anything, but the game seems to run just fine for me.

Play with the settings, but you should definitely be able to play it, even if you have to turn down/off ambient occlusion.

When I had an old alienware with a 960m it ran decent, I think 60 FPS on low.

let us know if you have any more questions, OP

i got constant 60fps on 970gti and 4 core old athlon...its a consol game prolly ur phone can run it

[cheetah1546]

it's a full remaster so a little more demanding than one might think but i have a 2070 super and a ryzen

More than enough. I got the same setup.

Yeah I just cranked the game to max settings

[Casurin]

It is an old remaster - OP asked about lowend machines... nearly any midrange GPU of the last 5 years can play the game with max settings.
Got something better than an R7 270x or GTx 750 Ti and you can play it maxed.

But integrated GPUs (intel UHD, AMD APU) and the lowest of the low GPUs (GT 730) is where the question makes sense.
