RPGs that'll run on my work toaster

[undefined]

What are some of your favorite low-spec RPGs on Steam? Your suggestions would be much appreciated

I've always wondered what the fuss was about

No reason not to try it, I suppose. Thanks~

Also downloaded the Avadon demo and I'm liking what I see so far! Ever played the Spiderweb ones? ..oh I see it's on sale too, neat

`where you don't have to destroy anyone.`
I swear this used to be 'where you don't have to kill anyone'.

Evoland
Evoland 2 (varied playstyle)
Undertale (battle like bullet hell)
Epic Battle Fantasy (turn-based like old Final Fantasy)
Oceanhorn (more like an Action RPG-lite Zelda Windwaker)
Transistor (action/strategy)
Dust An Elysian Tail (side-scroller with lite RPG elements)
Evilquest (playing it right now, if you liked Crystalis on the NES... without the maze that make you run in circle and get lost)

Great suggestions, thank you! Wow EBF looks sooo cute

Assuming that you mean Undertale, here's the gist of it:
1. The battle system consists of a much larger than usual variety of commands.
2. The script is written in a very detail-oriented way that takes into account multiple possible results/endings/outcomes based on your choices of those commands.

As a result, if you go into it as you might play a standard-fare simple turn-based JRPG, you'll be in for an interesting surprise.

Avadon seemed cool though I never finished it. I got pretty far into it though. I also have Avernum 4-6 but haven't touched them yet.

Transistor, Wizardry 8, Gothic 2 (with some mods installed), Risen 1, Fallout 2, Baldur's Gate 2 I'm unsure how the enhanced edition will run), KOTOR 2, Mount and Blade: Warband, Deus Ex: Game of the Year (with GMDX mod) and Neverwinter Nights.
I prefer older games as well as indie/middle tier games. I barely have games that are demanding on my system.

Yeah, same here -- I barely have any games that I can't run.

Also FWIW Steam doesn't have the Neverwinter Nights games but GOG does. Same probably applies to some other D&D or D&D-like WRPGs.

I know. But it's one of its one of my favourite RPGs. I have yet to try Ultima: Underworld and Darkland.

Disgaea PC

It is like Final fantasy Tactics, but offers going to level 9,999, 100+ party slots so you can keep characters and monsters you want. Rebirthing, mentorship, as well as characters can go through a variety of classes.

Its also has long term goals like a true final boss and item worlds inside every item which are randomly generated where you can improve items and fight item gods for the best of the best gear. It also has a funny (And faily long story) thats got voice acting.

Its also got a second much harder campagine called etna mode where you lose access to the main character (Until you go back to regular mode) and the main character becomes his succubus underling.

Also, humanoid characters can use any weapon, even the main character. The only ones that are limited are monsters which must use monster weapons.

The game has made many, many sequals and the PC version include a lot of dlc, if not all of it.
