Any help or tips to improve fps would be appreciated. I really want to play this game, I don't care if it has to look like minecraft.
Your specs are too low to play this game even on the minimum settings I think. (also post your gpu in the future). do you play on a laptop? You can try set the power options on maximum performance, stop other programs that you are running, set your anti virus in gaming mode (if it has one), update your gpu to the latest drivers (really important), set everything on medium or low (especially things like shadows etc), try playing on lower resolution...
