I’m trying to find a game to play with a friend. Here are the criteria:

  • Online co-op (ideally a campaign, but arcade games and other friendslop works)
  • Runs on old hardware - specifically a 8th gen i5 and a 1050
  • Runs on Linux
  • No/few zombies - I.E. no Half Life, no Left 4 Dead. Minecraft is Abstract enough to be fine, as is Vampire Survivors. Gmod is fine because the zombies are easy to avoid.
  • Not too hard to learn - I.E. not Dota 2, not a Paradox game, not even most RTSs
  • Faster paced/more interactive - something like Slay the Spire or Stardew Valley is probably okay, but not Civ or a CRPG
  • GalacticGrapefruit@lemmy.world

    Pathfinder and D&D run on a telephone and a handful of dice. And the zombies are optional.

    Real talk, though, I’d have to second the recommendation for Starbound. It has tons and tons of mods, and it runs just fine on Linux.
