What games would you guys recommend for a guy near 50, who doesn't have a gaming pc (my laptop is an i7, 16gb RAM and using onboard graphics) which tend to have an older community? I used to play RPG's and my least favorite games are those first person war games.

Something that doesn't require synchronous gaming and doesn't have a lot of stress would be even nicer.

Thanks for any input!

I didn't knew the game and a couple of replies mentioned it. Must say that it looks like something extremely fun and addicting but also very daunting!

If you want to get your feet wet in the genre without diving into the bottomless pit of possibilities that is DF, I'd heavily recommend RimWorld. It's basically a simplified, streamlined DF with a futuristic space theme.

Thanks. Do people play Dwarf Fortress Classic or the Steam version more?

[–] Barbarian@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think a lot more play the Steam one, as it looks better

Cool. Probably because of saving also, right? Since it's a game you can play for a long time...
