DX11 limit is a harsh one for a strategy clicker game.

I know I am not alone as a person that would hardly ever leave the 2D mode of ES1 and while all is nice and shiny, I have to get whiny about how performance drainy it can get.

So the silly suggestion would be to make even lower graphic setting, an ugly but playable one for the plebs while benefiting from the genius fancy new mechanics of ES2.

No need for 2d to be ugly. Good idea, though.

Yeah, pretty much down to this:

- replace the fancy BG with a static (high res) picture

- replace the planets view with a static (high res) picture

- disable viewing fights or make them 2D overview only

- replace fancy animations with ... no animations or just high res pictures

There, game is fixed to run on a potato, perhaps even a phone, browser, you name it.

And this has very little impact on the gameplay
