[Minimal requirements 8GB ram??]

Yes  you cant.

You can play now with 8gb? 

"Get more ram'' isnt a valid answer cause site says ''you can play with 8gb''.

"Minimum Requirements'' = ''if you hit the minimum you can play''. 

If you cant play with 8gb minimum requirements NQ should change to 16gb  minimum (or 12...or..w/e).

I pretty sure its a bad optimization issue and release will be viable with 8gb (basic video options) but ''get more ram'' isnt a valid answer. 

Also "get more ram'' can be something like 1/2-1/3 minimum wage here,  third world. Brazil  you can buy 16 gb ram for 1/2 minimum wage.  And remember: people can play ''for free'' with a beta code, isnt nothing like ''if you cant afford more ram you should not play games''.  Game is international not ''first world only''.

Its a sandbox, you will need to create your goals OR find a group and follow the group's goals. 

But you stil can aim for

-PVP (still something rare but people dont need)
- Crafting (its goood..)
-Gathering (mining is the real endgame)
-Exploring (get your ship on space!)
-Social (you can do real good things with voxelmancing)
-Shipbuilding (you weill crash but you will like it)
-Trading (get things cheap from A and sel to Be..with space...and youi will crash)

I mean...you will crash your first ship but its good. And remember: you cant brake from 10k km/h in 10s.
