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
Top of my head.
