I agree with having this aim, but not with it blocking us from adding any modern features. If we limit ourselves from adding new stuff just so it works on old computers, I don't believe we'll get very far at this day. Instead, create settings for all those features, and allow the user to toggle them. So that those with old computers can disable anything fancy, while those with modern hardware can enable everything that looks good. Another FOSS game I'm a developer of does this, and with minimal settings it can run on pretty old hardware while with maximum ones it looks very modern and good (reflections / refractions, bloom, offset / parallax mapping, motion blur, and more).

Which is why I suggested making all advanced features optional settings, which people can enable only if they need to.
