** It seems to be a not taxing game at all ** - and as a side note, minecraft players don't seem to be the demographic that plunks down cash for new videocards much either, also IMHO most of the minecraft players are on underpowered PC's and consoles so whose going to spend $$ for a new video card when they'd be better off replacing their pc overall.
I admit it's nice to see, but since like .01% of minecraft players upgrade their video card just for this game - this is poor value for such an investment
It's a gee look what my PC can do thingy (followed quickly by a then, OK so what moment?)
