There's also a notable problem that The Sims Medieval patch 2.0 doesn't work on Windows 8. Like The Sims 3, The Sims Medieval (and perhaps The Sims Medieval: Pirates and Nobles) has known problems running on Lion. Like The Sims 3, The Sims Medieval does not support PowerPC Macs. Support for OS X 10.5.7 was removed, however OS X 10.5.8 is supported. Support for Windows XP SP2 and Windows XP Professional 圆4 Edition was removed in Medieval, although Windows XP SP3 is still supported. Medieval also uses 800 MB less hard drive space. though Medieval requires at least 256 MB of video RAM as opposed to 128 MB for The Sims 3.
System Requirements for The Sims Medieval are generally the same as for The Sims 3. The Sims Medieval offers a new way for players to experience The Sims which we hope fans will enjoy, and it features gameplay that fans of strategy and role-playing games will find appealing such as controlling an entire kingdom and quest-based gameplay mechanics.
