I want to play Automata and all future Japanese games on ultra settings...
I turned Automata's settings to the minimum, reduced the resolution, and as a result, it barely stutters :P And I think it's actually running on Intel Graphics (the game itself seems to say so in the "settings"). i7-4500U, by the way.
Verdict: in my opinion, the game is optimized well enough to run smoothly on a cheap, but new PC.
Oh, and one more thing: while gradually lowering Automata's settings, I didn't notice any difference in the graphics, only in the fps, haha.
