Recommendation

[DaveBrawl]

How's it hanging VG forum?

Quick question for you wonderful bastions of humanity. Can you all recommend me a quality single player pc game (preferably that I can d/l from Steam) about 6-8 hours long? Something along the lines of Torchlight would be mint.

Quick backstory for the specifics: My dad is having open heart surgery on the 24th of this month and that's how long the surgery is supposed to take and I figure this would be a good way to kill time and get my mind off of it.

The kicker: My laptop, despite being only 3-4 years old and having a fairly good CPU and RAM, seems to suck as far as GPU/video card goes. It will barely run Torchlight 2 on low settings if many enemies come on screen at once, I tried DC Universe only too and that was also very laggy just creating the character (got tired of the lag and quit before even trying the gameplay). It's an AMD/ATI Mobility II I believe. I'll have to confirm that later as the laptop is at home and don't quite remember the specs.

Now if you have any other suggestions for genres besides my Torchlight II idea I'm open to them as well. I've just been hooked on that game during lunch at work and noticed yesterday it didn't work at home as finishing that was my plan for the surgery. So hit me up with any ideas you may have if you will.

Hugs and kittens,
