Your potato =/= My potato. And voxel games are limited by the CPU not the GPU.
Constraints exist for the Lowest Common Denominator aka: The system requirements section on the store page, the lowest acceptable performance machine.
We've already discussed these things in other threads that the building load system is bunk with lots of real world examples of buildings made of just normal wood that far exceed in-game limits.
Many of the largest timber only buildings are at least 80ft high and some have been built much higher.
Most of the largest ancient functional stone buildings are at least 200ft tall - all of them still exist today. The modern masonry buildings are much taller.
The in-game limitations are nothing but an annoyance caused by non-engineers artificially limiting the creativity of the community. We even have iron support available in-game that is visually incorrect and doesn't provide any kind of benefit at all structurally, but the functionality for it exists in the game so we can technically make massive span bridges and extremely tall buildings. They just don't want us to.
