So MMO level space requirements and AAA level RAM requirements?
For a game looking this janky, I'm not even surprised that it's also poorly optimized.

The fact they want a 1080ti for the reco specs is enough to tell me that it's going to be jank. I've only seen 1 other game that wanted ppl to use that card, and it ran like arse.

I hope emulating the Switch version doesn't end up being your best bet in that regard. ^^
Might turn out the minimum specs are inflated to begin with.
