Memory Requirements: What gives?

Postman · 10-19-2021, 08:49 PM

So, I'm watching the Avalanche on TV which I get to do maybe four times a year (because I'm a fan in the greater Denver metropolitan area -- screw you, Kronke), and I'm thinking I'd like to fill my hockey fix with FHM 7.

I almost clicked the purchase button when fortunately I decided to check the requirements. 8GB of RAM! Woof! Then I check OOTP, and it only requires 2 gigs (preferentially 4 gigs). That's good news for me because I plan on buying 23 when it comes out, and I'm assuming that the RAM requirements won't be four times higher. At least I hope not. Still I'm left with one question.

Why does FHM7 require so much more memory?
