RPG for weak PCs (PC)

The genre of role-playing games has existed for more than three decades, but completely new RPGs, due to high-quality graphics and a large amount of content, do not work well on weak computers. Still, this doesn't mean that there isn't a good, undemanding RPG out there for an older PC that will definitely run on it.

In this list we have collected all the role-playing games that work well on weak PCs and laptops. These are mainly cult RPGs that were released more than five years ago, which even now are very popular among gamers.
