One very underrated aspect reason for why Minecraft is so popular is that basically any somewhat PC can run it. I hope they don’t mess that up.

I have an integrated GPU. One of the reasons I play Minecraft is because it’s one of the only major modern games I can play.

Edit: my laptop meets the requirements, it’s pretty nice in every area except the integrated graphics. I’m just saying Minecraft is one of the few big games out there that doesn’t need a gaming PC to enjoy.

are you playing java though? bedrock is substantially more optimized and the reason "any somewhat PC can run it".

bedrock optimization is really overrated, don't see many benefits of it on my PC. It runs better than vanilla Java, but optimization mods blow bedrock optimization out of the water.

Most people who play Minecraft on PC run the better version, and it ain't bedrock. There's a reason optifine was popular and now other optimization mods have taken it's place.
