Hi I'm a Pakistani gamer who mostly played old school storyline games like GTA 3 GTA vice city and stories GTA San Andreas Need for speed most wanted 2005 Moto gp 2 Total overdose(my most fav) IGI(noob gameplay😭) Bully (masterpiece) Hitman blood money ( first two missions) In recent times I've been playing Bloodstrike on android Just cause 2 I want story rich games with gameplay filled with actions and I'm also open to exploring new genres ( consider laptop specs )...
i've been where you are with the specs (my device was an Acer Aspire with 6GB of RAM, iGPU, and a Duo Core i3). Some of the best games i got to run on there were Emulated Games. Assuming that's off the table though:
Not exactly story rich but 2D platformers like Celeste, Hollow Knight, Nine Sols, and Ori will definitely run on your computer and are probably among my favorite games of all time (haven't played much of Nine Sols yet though so I can't really speak for that one)
There's also emulated games, PS1, PS2, pretty much any Nintendo system up to the Wii/3DS etc. which will work on slower/older generation laptops.
Ori is probably going to struggle a bit on a laptop
Should've clarified, I think blind forest (the first one) should run fine? The second one would probably cause issues though.
The second game was released to the switch so it should be fine I think
No, case in point, I tried on my laptop. The switch has a gpu, this guy hasn't.
Late response but now that I think about it the AMD Vega iGPUs actually have a decent chance at running it at like 720p if the switch can run it. Yeah the switch has an Nvidia GPU but it's also integrated graphics on a tablet processor that was already a generation old in 2017 when it came out. Most of the fancy gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck and the ROG Ally basically just use clocked down laptop CPUs with only the iGPU anyway. A 3500u is pretty old at this point (and windows 11 eating RAM will probably be an issue) but you should probably be able to get ~30-60fps on a lot of indie/AA games if you run them at 720p/1080p with lower settings
For Ori 1, for Ori 2 you have to fiddle with the settings a bit more to get 25fps average but it's doable👍
Try new genres, you'll get bored of gaming if you stick to GTA adjacent things for your whole life.

have you considered bioshock? i think the gane will run nicely on ur laptop..
coreect me if im wrong
Space Station 13 will run on anything. The caveat is you'll have to play an active role in creating the narrative.

I'm not a big "power gamer" as I also game on my laptop mainly and it's a bit less powerful than yours. My suggestions tend toward retro graphics and indie titles; I have a type.
In no particular order, I'm going to recommend Ruiner, Make Way, and Hyper Light Drifter. Ruiner and HLD both have incredibly intense atmospheres and stylized storytelling with an emphasis on action. Make Way is heaps of chaos, totally unrealistic, and the AI can be brutally hard, but it's extremely simple and unless you crank down the difficulty to zero, it's easy to find a flow state in the rapidly evolving mayhem.
Older Assassin’s Creed games such as AC 2 or AC Brotherhood could be a good choice.
Devil Blade Reboot! (But I'm biased.)
I play mostly for story. I rented Ni No Kuni Wrath of the White Witch from the library. Now I'm gonna buy a copy when I get a few extra bucks.
You said you play Blood Strike on Android. If you have a decent phone I would try Alien Isolation! Runs well on most devices.
I have a realme phone having Helio g96 with 4/64 setup😬😭
