There are thousands of amazing older games that run on old hardware. Forget AAA and wade into your backlog or pull out some classic from gog or a yard sale.

Don't chase the high end, relax and start a game of CIV 4 or Anno 1404

In the past 2 weeks, I've played Tie Fighter and Dune 2. Glad I had over the minimum 640 KB of RAM for Dune - it's pricey these days but worth it for a smoother experience!

Dune 2 was my favorite game as a kid. I tried to play it again couple of years ago and couldn't. The UI is so clunky and the graphics are pretty bad.

Brother, we’re pulling out paper and pencil to play tic tac toe with the price of electricity these days

You mean civ V. Hexagons are the bestagons!

Technically very much a AAA game though, four was the first one published by Take Two and after it came out they bought Firaxis

Bought the Shadowrun trilogy for $10 bucks on GoG. That’s gonna be my next adventure.

New shit can blow me.

Enjoy. The first is a bit clunky but good lore points - the second is where it really takes off

Awesome. I don’t mind clunky so much with CRPGs. Comes with the territory.
