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!

      The level of stress in Dwarf Fortress is really gonna depend on how attached you are to your dwarves.

        I believe in not merely being labeled Armok, but in being Armok. If dwarves are dying of old age, then I am not satiated.

          But then you decide you need a well, or some magna forges. FUN always find a way :)

          You can do that? Has that always been a thing? I haven’t played in a while. Granted I would never turn those off, I’m very much in the Failure is Fun camp.

            You’d have to change setting in the world creation to make it boring

      I regularly plan to learn DF, then just play RimWorld instead. It really is DF for normies.
