I think you’re over exaggerating, either how poorly the game runs or how good your PC is. Mine is quite old, and the city does run noticeably worse but not unplayable by any means. It defaulted graphics to ultra (which is crazy for how old my machine is) and the city runs at about 25fps, which for a first person or action game would be unbearable, but a top down strategy game I don’t even notice unless I look at the FPS counter.
