I'm currently trying to put back a disassembled pc i had with relatively newer cpu. Will test the game on a friend's laptop with i5 5xx as well (not sure what's the model) while i'm trying to get the game running with SSE emulator on my own pc.

AMD Sempron, Athlon I & II, Phenom I & II families doesn't support SSE 4.1 instructions, so if i'd be able to run the game with emulator it could heavily stuttering but at least i'll confirmation it's the SSE compatibility issue.
In this case, our best chance is to contact the devs through their support team (don't think they're reading these forums for now or ever).

I've seen some other game like No Man's Sky or Trickster VR being patched so they run on older SSE instructions. i'll come back to you if make a progress.

But Heavy Rain demo is working great with AMD Phenom (High settings 60FPS)
They have same system requirements.
They need to patch this game

Dead end with the other pc same as my current one. The game worked fine on the mentioned laptop (i5 3210m, - geforce 610 since the cpu supports both SSE 4.1 and 4.2)

Also no luck with intel's emulator, i'm no tech-savvy so i can't tell if i did it right or not but closely and carefully followed some videos and instruction given on internet and none worked.

Last thing, just submitted a ticket for crashing on startup issue on quantic dream support site a few mins ago.
Provided full spec of my system and the other two i tested the game on, mentioned other games with the same SSE situation have been fixed for convenience of the their players and asked if they can offer me a workaround for this or have any plans to patch it in the future.

Did you get an answer from the developers?
I have a phenom II x6 1100T and it's a shame that I can't run this game, I also spent money although it wasn't much, hopefully they can repair it
