Nope, but you atleast need some kind of graphics card with Pixel shader 3 to run it... try checking out CYRI to see if you can run it.

Please, post your system specs.

If you don't know how, follow the steps below.

1) Click the Start Button

If Windows XP:
2a) Click run. (Ignore 2b)

If Windows Vista or 7:
2b) type run in the box and hit enter.

3) Type, dxdiag in the box.
- You should get a window, with some information about your system

4) On the bottom, click 'save all information'
- This will create a log summary of your PC.

5) Save the log file to your desktop

6) Open the File

7) Reply to this thread with a copy & paste of just the System Information and Display Information
Note: For the display information, we just need the first line (IE: Card Name)

You have to install an ActiveX plugin, if I remember correctly. You could always download the demo of Dungeon Defenders on Steam and try it out.

You have to install a small plugin, yes. Then you can remove it whenever you want. I believe it's located in Program Files on windows if my memory serves.

Word of warning though, OP, it compares your computers specs to the minimum and recommended requirements. A heavily updated game will not be accurate there at all. Like TF2. Take it's results with a grain of salt.

This is why he needs to post his system specs or download the demo!

I suggest taking the 2 minutes to get us those specs! :)

Nice, just make sure you have a decent dedicated video card in your machine when you make the purchase. :)

My laptop has an integrated chipset, but it runs Dungeon Defenders just fine if I turn the resolution down and the post-processing off.

The game looks crappy though.

Its very pretty (in a cartoony way) with post-processing on. :)

Most laptops I or my friends have played with (3-4 different models) run the first maps easily enough. Things still get choppy, though, so you will NOT have a smooth gaming experience. Also, toss any notion of large maps out the window (including all Shards content), especially if you have an integrated graphics card. You can still play the game, yeah, but the lag will kill you so easily on harder difficulties.
