If so, what are your computer specs? and how well or bad it runs?

Yup, and it ran well. I played through the full game without any issues until the end, when you need to do a certain QTE (unfortunately after a lengthy mission, which had to be restarted each attempt) and had to manually set a framerate cap.

Specs at the time:

  • CPU: Ryzen 1700
  • GPU: GTX 960 4GB
  • RAM: 16GB @ ~3000 MHz
  • NVMe SSD

That hardware is pretty old, so I'd guess you'd have no problem if you're specs are anything recent.
