The Lord of the Rings Gollum System Requirements Are Heavy on RAM Usage

That's a lot of RAM usage for such a small sized game compared to others.

The Lord of the Rings Gollum system requirements have been revealed today and one hardware requirement is already too heavy even at minimum specs.

The Steam page of the game has already revealed the official The Lord of the Rings Gollum system requirements and has some reasonable hardware requirements on the minimum side, but there is one problem: the 16 GB RAM requirement for it to run even at low settings. Storage space is surprisingly low with a 45 GB requirement, and even the GPU only needs at least GTX 1080, which is generous but that 16 GB RAM is too heavy for such a small-sized game.
