About this image

i have a xeon e3 1230 (i know, a pretty old mf, but here i am)
(and don't come with "uH sHoUlD uPgRaDe") that's precisely wham i am 
slowly doing these years, unfortunately i have other priorities.

anyway, i don't know if this is a AVX problem or whatever, but 
sony didn't say nothing about the game not being able to launch,
but they expect the user to buy their game tho... hummm....

this is just to start a discussion, so if you guys have any valuable info,
please let me know.

    https://www.ruetir.com/2022/10/20/annoyed-players-cant-play-uncharted-legacy-of-thieves-pc-due-to-lack-of-4th-gen-processor-with-avx2-technology-ruetir/

    Lets hope they patch it out (i read it happend with dying light 2) but i won't bet on it.

    Edit: I really hope that this is some special instance....now with the energy crisis in europe i would be hard pressed to do any meaningful upgrade on my pc. Would be a shame if all the graphic intensive games that come out in the next time will have this requirement.

      same here, though my energy cost is not too high, i have other priorities and making a cpu upgrade would mean,
      mobo, cpu, ram and it would definitely cost a lot, if i intend to upgrade to a more recent platform, 'cuz i surerly don't 
      wanna be "stuck" in the future.

      The same processor, if there is no fix, you will have to issue a refund (

      realmente precisa, se tu comprou o game, recomendo pegar o reembolso se é que já não pegou,
      eu acho sacanagem eles não avisarem que o game não funciona sem avx2. mas né, porque eles avisariam?

    same hv a i7 2600, and AVX2 is the culprit. It's scummy that they never provided that info. This was the first time i hv got a CPU is old message for anything. Hope someone can mod this for old cpus.
