Recommended is for the game to run well for a user, not what it needs to run well. 18-24GB is not a viable config so 32GB gets it. MS says you need 6GB for windows to stay in ram, chrome will eat a couple gigs, and then the game likely needs like 10GB. 6700xt is a low end card from 5 years ago. The requirements and recommended seem fine.

You'll have to ask copilot, because nobody actually knows

No idea, but that is their guide for setting recommended system requirements. You lose 8-10GB with windows web browser in back ground and windows depending on how you think your user will use their computer.

Whoever willfully uses this shit is insane even without the recent ai slop.
