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
  • HubertManne@piefed.socialEnglish

    so I went back to playing star trek online and champions online from cryptic. they are from aroudn 2010 so pretty easy on hardware. you can play together although you may have to do tutorial along although I think with champions if you play at the same time I think you are in the same instance and can play together. I know champions is eventually skippable for an alt but not sure if you can skip from the get go.
