Yeah, I hear what you're saying. I also have a machine from 2014 16GB. It's got a core7-5820K on the plus side, but on the minus side I have a laughable GT-730 GPU and no SSD, which I probably should get to mitigate some of the load time.

Most modern game engines handle it fine as long as you turn off all the extra graphical features and set the resolution to something like 640x480. That said, it took literally half an hour for that 2014 machine to load the game. The only reason it was able to run the game at all is because I had 32 gig of ram in it.
