The point is that those have halfway decent hardware can use the new features, and those who haven't can't. If we want to make the effort - well that's free. If we could find a way of doing shadows etc. which could run on older hardware then we would. Perhaps as development continues we will be able to optimise the system to find more framerate. By the way - just how old is the hardware you are using? The hardware needed to run this stuff can be picked up on eBay for peanuts.
