Sins of a Solar Empire 2 just launched on steam and one of the first reviews let me know that it has no graphics options. What? I mean recommended is a GTX 1060 so I guess performance isn't an issue but.... why? "No graphic settings, only bloom, fullscreen-no fullscreen, etc."

What? That's the dumbest sh*t I've heard in quite some time, more so now that console games are starting to add them.

Probably has more to do with the fact that it needs a potato to run on and that's at it's best graphics.

Also it probably just looks at what it has and allocates ressources accordingly. Few games do so (most did early on when windows95 and 3D graphics cards were all new as programmers weren't sure if the customers would really know what he has as hardware and the software within windows), but with a 2024 game that needs a quadcore CPU and an RX 450 (aka Radeon HD 7750, a lower midrange GPU from 12 years ago with 8CU and 1Ghz clock speed) as minimum, pretty much anything that can game will run the game. Really, only entry-level laptops and NUCs will have problems running that game these days, and even then it might work.
