Here you can find a bunch free software RPGs: https://libregamewiki.org/Role-playing_games
Also you can install MAME and download like 5000 arcade games from the 70, 80, 90, 2000.
Brotato has very modest system requirements and kind has some elements of a micro arpg if you squint. I haven't tried vampire survivors on my low end system yet, but I'm hopeful it has similar system requirements as it has a similar sort game style.
VA-11 HALL-A (not sure if I wrote that right) is a nice little cyberpunk visual novel that can run on a toaster and has a native linux version. It sort of falls in line with the choose your own adventure you mentioned because you can make some choices that affect certain things, but mostly, the game is about mixing drinks and changing lives.
I love VA-11 HALL-A! Seconded, it's a super fun game, and it's fun to replay it every now and then to explore a new path of the story
Maybe I haven't scrolled far enough, but haven't seen anyone recommending Persona, if so I definitely recommend it, in this case, Persona 4, which I played.
There's also Fable Anniversary, the classic Xbox exclusive RPG, both games are also Deck Verified.
Yea Persona 4 is a great play on low end laptops.
https://r-roms.github.io/megathread/sony/ I found this absolute treasure trove of roms if you want. well I was waiting for my main gaming pc to be shipped I pretty much lived off old ps2 games like ratchet and clank 2
If you install ScummVM you can play most of the Lucasarts titles! All of these games are top tier (Monkey Island, day of the Tentacle etc) and you would enjoy!
If you like text-based adventure games, check out ifdb.org for a massive store of free and abandoned text-based games. You can play in-browser or on any OS with a native client, Linux and Android included
Dark Souls Remastered should run just fine, one of the greatest games ever. Also make sure you play it with a controller!
Baba Is You, Into The Breach, Ultima VII (with Exult)
caves of qud is quite good, its tile based roguelike.
I can't vouch for it running on Linux but that being said, Caves of Qud is really good and has lots of depth.
I've heard something about the dev being a POS or something? Never quite figured out what that was about.
at least according to steam info it should run on linux.
tried quickly searching for 'caves of qud controversy or drama. I found an article that could be related to this: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/keeping-trolls-out-of-the-caves-of-qud-community

Maybe they angered some group/people with certain political leanings, which tried to smear their reputation? At least that is the general gist of things i'm getting based on quick browsing of these. At least I can't find anything bad.
Backpack hero is very cute and fun, and runs very well through proton.
One Hour One Life and Two Hours One Life (open source) can be run on pretty much any computer.
The concept is: you're born as a baby or a fertile woman and you have to gather and build to survive. Your maximum age is 60 years (OHOL) or 120 years (2HOL) and you hunt, gather, build tools, have babies and raise them. You can become the matriarch of a huge multigenerational family and build towns, buildings, farms, roads and weapons. People keep adding to it, I haven't played in awhile but I think they have cars and airplanes now.
The graphics are MS Paint-quality but the gameplay is so incredibly fun. Highly recommend.
Neither RPGs nor choose your own adventure games, but I'll leave Celeste, Hollow Knight, and Cuphead here anyway
I will second Cuphead. Fair warning: it’s really difficult in that old-school sidescroller way in that you will lose many lives and you will have to try the levels again many times. But it is far and away one of my favorite games ever because the developers hand-animated it in 1920s rubber hose style — I’m talking frame by frame, by cell. They have a great art book too if you really take to it like I did. 😅
! Book.
I recommend Baldurs Gate, BD 2. Good games. Also Planescape Torment.
If you like roguelikes I'd recommend Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
Gta san andreas, works perfectly fine with the newest wine-ge and dxvk 2.2 but you can try without dxvk if your computer doesnt support vulkan renderer
