In all fairness to Papy, we were warned about the System Requirements a
couple of years ago, and the official line for delaying it as long as it was
was so that the PC hardware could catch up to the requirements of the game.
An Athlon 800/GeForce DDR with PC133 RAM (512MB in my case) is just dandy as
long as I trim down the 'World' graphics to about 40%. Frankly, I haven't
even noticed what it tuned down.
