Hi everyone! So I just switched to Linux and I am a little unsure of what to play on my laptop.
It’s a presumably decent laptop, 16gb of ram and Iris Xe, but I find that it has battery issues trying to play anything fancy like Skyrim.
I’m looking into things like emulation, finally tackling my Itch.io backlog, and bringing out old classics.
I like RPGs and text-based choose your own adventure games, so if you have any recommendations I’d appreciate it!

All Steam Deck verified games should play just fine on that laptop. While Intel Xe graphics are not the greatest, Steam Deck is restricted to 15W and you laptop is not.
While it may not exactly match up with the body of your message, I think this would fit the subject line rather well:
…and cataclysm: dark days ahead.
with those two, i can survive indefinitely on (almost) any linux machine.
I’ve seen OpenMW mentioned (and it’s fantastic), but you might want to check out Daggerfall Unity as well. The game’s available at no cost, and you can find a zip of the necessary game files on the install guide in the dfworkshop forums.
It’s way better than the old DOS version, and it supports mods, too.
Alright so I was a little confused on OpenMW but it appears that it is, in fact, complete enough to play? Nice. I now finally have an excuse to play.
I completely forgot about Daggerfall existing. I’m just reading through the wikipedia article. “Daggerfall consists of 15,000 cities, towns, villages, and dungeons for the character to explore.” I am intimidated, yet intrigued.
