What games would you guys recommend for a guy near 50, who doesn't have a gaming pc (my laptop is an i7, 16gb RAM and using onboard graphics) which tend to have an older community? I used to play RPG's and my least favorite games are those first person war games.

Something that doesn't require synchronous gaming and doesn't have a lot of stress would be even nicer.

Thanks for any input!

I got really interested in WoW Classic Hardcore Mode after watching a recent video about it. In this mode, when your character dies, that character is automatically deleted and you have to start a new one. I'm curious what it would feel like to play WoW again, but this time knowing that death is the end of my adventure. I think I may give it a shot one day.

I know you said it shouldn't require synchronous gaming. WoW of course wants you to be online with other people… but you don't have to be online with any particular people. There's always someone on to group up with. Hardcore mode is having a moment, so you should have no shortage of people to play with. I wouldn't worry about trying to schedule time to play it. I don't want a game that is like a job. Just play when you can, enjoy it as long as you do, and then move on to something else. I guess what I'm saying is that you should play WoW Classic Hardcore casually. 😅

Or you could play the true hardcore mode: play WoW Classic Hardcore until one character dies. Then shelve the game forever and move on to something else. 😆
