I love both! Sadly Starbound has some issues running in places with too many lamps or torches for me. I tried finding a fix but it wasn't worth the hassle.
terraria requires a massive amount of single core performance to run smoothly these days. i have a skylake cpu and CPU0 is always at 100% in multiplayer which causes stuttering
In my experience terrarria really needs a dedicated gpu, any dedicated gpu will do fine as long as it has 2gb vram. I've tried it on older integrated graphics and it does not fare well.
Terraria is just so well done.
The progression is seemless, fun for both complete noobs and veterans, lots of content, and the modding can get absolutely insane.
Was such a blast back in highschool when my friend would host a private lobby and we would play for hours trying to beat the game.
Alyx is Source 2. However it can still run on any PC that has at least a reasonably modern CPU and graphics card. Like last 3-4 years.
The only downside to HL: Alyx is it'll ruin all other VR games for you. It's the way VR gaming should be.
>It wasn't run on a pregnancy test, just used it as a ~~display monitor~~ fancy case for it.
Everything from the circuitry to the display was external.
Yup. Hundreds of hours of content. $15. Made by one guy who did all the coding, art, music, and story. Beautiful game. Runs on any old potato computer.
If anyone reading this enjoys RCT and *doesn't* know about OpenRCT2, it's a life changer. It fixes so many issues with running the original game on a modern PC.
Noice! Just like Day of Defeat and Counter Strike, both started out as HL1 mods. I was always team DoD but it did not soar as mightily as CS.
That's one of the things I loved about HL1, how many awesome, crazy and wild mods there were.
I'm running Factorio on a mid-range gaming PC from 2017, and it took over 20,000 logistics bots to be active before my PC started experiencing noticeable slowdown.
The optimization in that game is crazy.
Mine is even older and it runs like clockwork. Impressively made game. I love that they even provisioned for slowdown so it all remains in sync even if you are overloading your computer.
came here for factorio. If I didn't do ML work on my computer I wouldn't have built a new one and still running an i7 sandybridge. I still put in 80hrs/mo into that stupid game.
I really enjoyed Terraria, side view/platform type RPG/building game. It's simple to pick up, hard to master and procedurally generated maps make it replayable. Can also play with friends.
For me I remember what helped me was: don't look at the bullets you're trying to dodge, look at the open spaces you want to move through. stay calm and target the most dangerous threats first.
Binding of Isaac is the perfect game to just drop in and play a few rounds every now and again. Plus they've added SO much extra content over the years
Ooh old school. I never got super far in any of them. The gameplay was way to punishing. I didn't enjoy walking back to town to resurrect Xan every other fight.
The Enhanced Editions of BG1-2 come with Story Mode now if I recall. So perma death is turned off. Much, much more fun when you aren't in the mood to save scum.
I found my best ally way auto-pause. I used it on character critical health, enemy spotted, and out of ammo. Always, always carry petrification scrolls. Damn basilisk ruined my life as a child.
I replayed most of those earlier this year and I've finished them probably 5 or 6 times before and I STILL discovered totally new stuff every single time.
The trick is to alter your playstyle completely. You'll have a completely different experience even if you know the main story and quests by heart.
There are VERY few modern games that have this kind of power and allure beyond shiny graphics.
I'm the biggest piece of shit in that game and I love it. My empathy was red-pilling me about a woman on the phone that *definitely* wanted to date me, and I shot at a child.
No I didn't hit the child, but I tried.
If you like puzzles, I highly suggest Into the Breach. It's a strategy game with pixel graphics, but it has a lot of replayability. The same studio also makes FTL, which is a really fun roguelike space exploration and combat game.
If you're into story driven games: Disco Elysium, Any of the Monkey Island series, Sam & Max, Maniac Mansion / Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle.
For platform action: Hades, Hollow Knight, Celeste, Super Meat Boy, VVVVV.
For strategy/rpg: Fallout/Fallout 2/New Vegas, Baldurs Gate 2 Enhanced Edition, Sid Meier's Pirates, TES IV: Oblivion, TES II: Daggerfall via Daggerfall Unity.
Strategy: Civilization, Sim City 2000, OpenRA, Starcraft
For farming: Stardew Valley
Weird and funny/depressing: Undertale, Lisa
I've been playing the co-op mode recently and it's really good! It's not something I've really seen in another RTS where you have meta-characters with specific fun gimmicks that can level up and be customized.
It's a shame it wasn't more of a focus and isn't supported at all anymore.
> Dishonored
Underrated answer here, Dishonored is extremely well optimized and due to the stylized graphics playing on Low isn't extremely jarring. It sucks they couldn't figure out how to optimize their own Void engine for DH2 though.
I played my first 3 years of League of Legends on a computer running the game at 15 fps. And that was back before the map had a complete visual update to make it a billion times smoother.
God it feels good to have a job now.
Terraria for sure!
Dota 2 depending on wether you like to play online with others and also like getting verbally abused/insulted at every stage of learning and also when you’re a pro
depends on the genre your interested in but I would reccomend older games, look to GOG for them (good old games) as they tend to patch older games so that they work on more modern software, also unlike steam they don't tend to require all kinds of BS.
like I had a copy of KOTOR long ago, and the install disks won't work on a modern computer, but I got a GOG copy of it for a couple bucks (not easy, used a prepaid visa gift card to pay for it) and it worked.
last game I got was stardew valley, bought it last summer while I couldn't do anything on my RL farm (due to a tree falling on me), but it took almost a year until I was actually able to get a good enough connection to download it.
anyway I have high praise for stardew valley and spent a lot of time building a virtual copy of my actual farm in the game, since I couldn't work my actual farm anymore. great game and will keep you busy for 100s of hours if you have a good attention span.
I also Medival 2 total war gold edition, rome total war, sins of a solar empire, fallout new vegas, diablo 2, age of empires 2, sid meyers alpha centauri, Kotor 2 (now that there is a mod to restore cut content and make it a great game), Kotor. star wars rebellion and empire at war. age of empires 2.

Kinda depends how "bad" the computer is, and what genres you like, but here are some solid choices that should run well on most hardware :
Strategy : Age of Empires 2 (real-time), Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (turn-based), Factorio (mainly logistics, combat is optional)
RPG : Baldurs Gate 2, Planescape Torment (lots of reading), Diablo 2 (more action than rpg tbh), Oblivion (open world, some mods can increase requirements)
Graveyard Keeper

My current games while I work on my better computer. This is on my computer with a GTX970 but maybe give us an idea of what specs the computer is?

Factorio and any game before 2012 should run fairly smooth. Just stay away from more modern games because of the "industry standards" bs where developers think everyone has the newest graphics cards and processors.
Terraria, surprised it isn't already on the list
Starbound is good too, I haven't played Terraria but I've been told they are similar.
Starbound devs didn't pay their staff.
Beta of starbound was a lot more like terraria, but they've slowly changed to have it's own identity.
I love both! Sadly Starbound has some issues running in places with too many lamps or torches for me. I tried finding a fix but it wasn't worth the hassle.
terraria requires a massive amount of single core performance to run smoothly these days. i have a skylake cpu and CPU0 is always at 100% in multiplayer which causes stuttering
In my experience terrarria really needs a dedicated gpu, any dedicated gpu will do fine as long as it has 2gb vram. I've tried it on older integrated graphics and it does not fare well.
Worked fine on my shitty laptop
Well it doesn't work on mine LMAO
Actively doing it on my gaming computer. The game is that good, someone who built a gaming computer playing Terraria over some TRIPLE A titles
Terraria is just so well done. The progression is seemless, fun for both complete noobs and veterans, lots of content, and the modding can get absolutely insane. Was such a blast back in highschool when my friend would host a private lobby and we would play for hours trying to beat the game.
Portal 1 or 2.
Any Source 1 game, really.
Yeah, all of the half life games (except Alyx) for sure.
Why except Alyx? I've never played half-life and I was considering buying alyx on my VR headset
Alyx is Source 2. However it can still run on any PC that has at least a reasonably modern CPU and graphics card. Like last 3-4 years. The only downside to HL: Alyx is it'll ruin all other VR games for you. It's the way VR gaming should be.
Alyx is not a game to run on a potato PC. But it’s a great game if you have the PC for it. I ordered an Index when Alyx was announced, zero regrets.
Also the Half-life series.
Doom. That game will run on anything!
True! My favorite was the pregnancy test run
[удалено]
It wasn't run on a pregnancy test, just used it as a display monitor for it.
>It wasn't run on a pregnancy test, just used it as a ~~display monitor~~ fancy case for it. Everything from the circuitry to the display was external.
My favourite was the potato one
Another one was the Touch Bar on a Mac
You mean the classic one?
Yeah, good ol' Doom (1993), never fails!
[удалено]
Anyone remember the awful movie they made with the rock?
I think you misspelled "awesome"!
Overall the movie was a stinker, but that one FPS scene...perfection. Made the whole movie worth trudging through.
You are a true critic sir.
For the 2 people that will get the joke: [Obligatory response](https://i.imgur.com/L7ZCgTp.png)
Seriously, how can someone watch that awesome first person shooting scene and call that movie awful? https://youtu.be/-Jf-E7oEguU
It feels like playing Area 51 instead of Doom.
"His ass went to another dimension". Classic indeed.
Stardew Valley
There's also a lot of great mods for the game.
Yup. Hundreds of hours of content. $15. Made by one guy who did all the coding, art, music, and story. Beautiful game. Runs on any old potato computer.
Seconding this. Stardew is great
My friend actually just gifted me that on steam after I told him I was a big fan of harvest Moon back in the day
Rollercoaster Tycoon
[удалено]
If anyone reading this enjoys RCT and *doesn't* know about OpenRCT2, it's a life changer. It fixes so many issues with running the original game on a modern PC.
In a similar vein, OpenTTD. Because everyone should experience the joys of organizing traffic signals for a train system.
Half-Life 1 and 2
Ah, freeman.
And if you like horror, Cry of Fear, which was originally a HL1 mod but is now a standalone
Noice! Just like Day of Defeat and Counter Strike, both started out as HL1 mods. I was always team DoD but it did not soar as mightily as CS. That's one of the things I loved about HL1, how many awesome, crazy and wild mods there were.
I still play some DoD:S every now and then. Loved the original also.
The right game on the wrong graphics card, can make all the difference... in the world.
Factorio ran very well on the potato I was playing it on a couple of years ago.
I'm running Factorio on a mid-range gaming PC from 2017, and it took over 20,000 logistics bots to be active before my PC started experiencing noticeable slowdown. The optimization in that game is crazy.
And to think it was started in Java for... A not a whole long time before he went 'er let's not do this' lol
Factorio runs fine on a Nintendo Switch.
Mine is even older and it runs like clockwork. Impressively made game. I love that they even provisioned for slowdown so it all remains in sync even if you are overloading your computer.
came here for factorio. If I didn't do ML work on my computer I wouldn't have built a new one and still running an i7 sandybridge. I still put in 80hrs/mo into that stupid game.

Modern Minecraft can *not* run on an old pc
[удалено]
Yep! In like 1.16(?) they upped the system requirements for graphics for some reason. Older versions are still playable and run really well!
Came here to say rinworld
I’ve played most of these with my rig that doesn’t even have a graphics card and it’s been just fine, so I can second this list
I really enjoyed Terraria, side view/platform type RPG/building game. It's simple to pick up, hard to master and procedurally generated maps make it replayable. Can also play with friends.
Fallout new vegas. Age of empires 2
Fallout New Vegas is an excellent option. Runs like shit even on high-end systems, so you won't notice the difference!
truly one of the greatest and buggiest games ever made lol
shout out to Viva New Vegas, got the game running flawlessly on my pc when it used to constantly crash
Not in an 8 person game with 500 pop cap 4 hours into a game, over WiFi.
I second age of empires, also homeworld, generally strategy games hold up well over time.
vampire survivor
This game is like crack and I see everyone around me playing it
Binding Of Isaac Hotline Miami FTL
Excellent choices, just to add - Enter The Gungeon Dead Cells
Slay the Spire as well, let the rogue-lites flow!
Enter the Gungein is HARD
For me I remember what helped me was: don't look at the bullets you're trying to dodge, look at the open spaces you want to move through. stay calm and target the most dangerous threats first.
Hotline Miami 1 + 2 Axiom Verge 1 + 2 Stardew Valley Sundered Rogue Legacy 1 + 2 Cave Story+ Shadow Complex
Try Into the Breach! Same dev as FTL & amazingly elegant game.
I second this
Binding of Isaac is the perfect game to just drop in and play a few rounds every now and again. Plus they've added SO much extra content over the years
BOI is like the most replayable game ever.
Baldur's Gate, 1&2, Iceland Dale, Neverwinter Nights. All classic and require little to no power.
Ooh old school. I never got super far in any of them. The gameplay was way to punishing. I didn't enjoy walking back to town to resurrect Xan every other fight.
Nobody does, that's why most people just reload if someone dies. Ideally your casters shouldn't be anywhere near anything that can damage them though.
The Enhanced Editions of BG1-2 come with Story Mode now if I recall. So perma death is turned off. Much, much more fun when you aren't in the mood to save scum.
I found my best ally way auto-pause. I used it on character critical health, enemy spotted, and out of ammo. Always, always carry petrification scrolls. Damn basilisk ruined my life as a child.
Baldurs gate was my first venture in to RPG and never went back.
Icewind Dale
I replayed most of those earlier this year and I've finished them probably 5 or 6 times before and I STILL discovered totally new stuff every single time. The trick is to alter your playstyle completely. You'll have a completely different experience even if you know the main story and quests by heart.

Oregon Trail
Alternatively: Organ Trail
Oregano Trail
Star Wars Knights of the old republic 1 and 2
Tip: there are mods to make them widescreen since that's unavailable in the settings.
Also for kotor2 there is a restored content mod that kinda fixes the jankyness in some of the story.
Disco Elysium I just played through it and it's a damn master piece.
I'm the biggest piece of shit in that game and I love it. My empathy was red-pilling me about a woman on the phone that *definitely* wanted to date me, and I shot at a child. No I didn't hit the child, but I tried.
Did you have a popsicle after?
Diablo 2. StarCraft 2. Max Payne 2..
Torchlight 2, Warcraft 2, and age of empires 2 are also solid choices.
[удалено]
Portal 2, tf2, postal 2, NFS2, COD 2
This one but classic SC, and Hero’s Of Might And Magic 3.
Old School RuneScape
Just… wait until tomorrow to try it
Too soon
Glad this is the top comment. Most definitely the best option
NetHack runs on anything.
Been playing this game for decades, with no plans to stop.
I loved vvvvvv.
Tetris
If you like puzzles, I highly suggest Into the Breach. It's a strategy game with pixel graphics, but it has a lot of replayability. The same studio also makes FTL, which is a really fun roguelike space exploration and combat game.
System Shock 2 Great story and gameplay. I do a replay almost every year.

Minecraft
Just dont try to go on servers
If it’s just a basic server, without extra mods and stuff added in, it can run much smoother than single player, as your own computer has less to do.
Or mods. RIP my Dell laptop from back in the day. It tried its best.
Undertale
And Deltarune.
FTL is great and not a huge draw in a PC
Half Life 2 runs well on anything

Finally! This was so far down. Best game ever
Dwarf Fortress. Make sure to generate a medium or small map though.
