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.
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
Just finished Mafia 1 DE and 2 DE. Taking a breather before I dive in 3, which I suppose will require a lot of patience.
I really enjoyed 1 and 2. They’re anti GTA in some senses where there’s basically little to no fluff or sandbox, just pure story telling and some gameplay on the side. But the stories are definitely so well written. The DLCs of 2 showed signs of GTAfication, and the first 30 mins of 3 also reek of it, but I feel the first two definitely feel timeless only because of their writing.
Does the definitive edition still have the music of the original? I know it’s technically anachronistic, but those Django Reinhardt tunes were so iconic.
Otherwise I agree, though I only played Mafia 1. I remember it came out the same year as GTA 3, and it was very much the sort of mature and serious option. I personally always preferred it.
