So my normie friend asked me to build him a pc, he plans to play dota 2 on it, a bunch of games from more than a decade ago and some fun "offline games" of my choosing. What games should I put on his pc Sup Forums?

Artificial Academy

Tyrian 2000

A Key logger. Remember to white list it though.

If you have 'normie' friends you're a normalfag yourself
the fact you use the term normie speaks volumes about you

Cave Story

Desu "normie" is a red flag for me that that user is from Sup Forums or /r9k/ or whatever. I use normalfag instead.

heh

recommend something a bit more normie friendly? I need games with a lot of spectacle but not too difficult, maybe show how much graphics have progressed, make normies go wow.

I don't care about your standards fags, I'm not here to impress you.

Sengoku Rance
Factorio
Akiba Strip
Blue Revolver

pls stop recommending chinese adult games

Yes you are.

Postal 2
Roller Coaster Tycoon 2
Nascar Racing Season 2003 with the mods if he likes racing

Anyone remember that game about messing around with a loli in the park/playground? Install that one, but tell me the name.

>normie friend
>dota 2
pick one you faggot

you're part of the problem
fuck off and choose your own games

are you fucking serious? assfaggots are the most normie genre there is on pc, they don't even play fps on pcs anymore and play it on consoles instead

Normies play league and smite you dumbass, dota 2 is way too hard for their inferior brains.

did I hurt your feelings?

Ask his budget
Fill it

What he plans to do with his PC is irrelevant since it's not all he'll be doing.
Just fill the budget AND ffs get a BIG CASE and a MODULAR PSU. If you don't please give me your address so I can hunt you down.

>dota 2
>hard
oh what has Sup Forums become

See you in 5k, shitter.

yes you did
apologize right now

I know how to build a pc, it's video games I'm looking for.

put league of legends on his computer so he stops being your friend.

Every riddle is simple once you solve it.
TI winners and most high tier players have spent their early teens perfecting their dota.
If you think dota is simple then you have never played it.

>no translation

Just do what I said you cuckafuck. Also install malwarebytes and spybot S&D.

Terraria
FTL
Binding of Isaac

Kill yourself.

fuck you I've already built it so stop with your fuckery and recommend games instead.

Ok, so far I've installed:

Dota 2
CS: Go
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Assetto Corsa
Resident Evil 7
Sleeping Dogs

Literally take this to reddit faggot

Better games:
Dune 2
Syndicate Plus
Archimedean Dynasty
Planescape: Torment

Fuck off, this is a video game thread in a video games board. Go back to your e-celeb worship threads.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Sid Meier's Pirates. It's casual enough to be normalfag friendly but I've seen people on here saying how the final difficulty was too much for them. Then again, Sup Forums is a bit casual. But it does fit the bill for a game from roughly a decade ago.

MGRR
Spelunky
Astrox if he likes eve online (shit's free or 5 minute pirate, really so worth a try)
Yooka failee
Emulators of SNES, GBA, PS1 are the norm and good games for them

a bunch of cheap shit then charge them twice the price

so yooka laylee is actually good? I might check it out myself then

Put a bunch of CRPGs including Deus Ex, Divinity Original Sin, System Shock 2, Vampire Bloodlines, KOTOR and such.

Only worth a pirate
If he is going to play offline with no network he can have fun and be frustrated too finding all the collectible shit
Otherwise just show him how to use the n64 emulator, it should work alright if you aren't using igpu

Post specs faggot, I want to ridicule you in public.

If he plays Dota 2 and some old games, then this is a lost case. He'll never play the games you install user.
At best he'll fire up something for 10 minutes before dropping it and going back to sucking dick in Dota.

make a man out of him with the STALKER trilogy.
Install the Starter Pack mods for him so he's good to go right off the bat.

Find out his Dota2 main and download all their images off e621

Maybe one of the Souls games? If he's hooked you'll know it, and then you can 'gift' (aka install the pirated version) the other games later.

Also it hugely depends on his tastes. I absolutely fucking love Shogun 2 FoTS and classic with Darthmod, but I've yet to meet another person RL which likes Total War. Hitman 2016 is also pretty good in graphics and gameplay, maybe you'd like to give that a try.

Also GTA V

No weebshit

that's the most likely scenario

fine.
intel g4560
4gb ddr4 ram - he can upgrade it himself if he bothers
some cheapass motherboard
a used 750ti
fps hexa+ 450w

all for less than 250 dollaridoos
roast me fagget

>the year of our lord two thousand and seventeen
>4 gb ram
AHAHAHAHAHA

bruh

why did you go with a DDR4 if his budget was so low?

ever considered an used i5/i7 of older generations?

Decent for the price, I would have went for a used 7970/280 or something instead of the toaster 750 though

dolphin porn.

I thought 8gb was the minimum nowadays. Can a person really get by with 4?

4gb is acceptable in a budget build fag

upgradeability, it's within the budget so why not

>locked i3 instead of glorious used $80 Xeons
>cucking him with 4gb
>PSU isn't even 80 plus rated
>motherboard probably biostar
WEW LAD

I'm actually really liking the 750ti, the little guy runs games better than I expected

runs well enough for the games I've installed

I literally just did this. Normie friend handed me $2,200 bucks and said, build me something neat.

All he plays is facebook app games....

Now he has a fucking supercomputer to do it on. Kinda sad that he will NEVER use anywhere near its full power.

Good plan because if he wants to upgrade at some point, he won't have to throw away everything.

>calling 750 a toaster
>recommends AMD housefire shit
top. kek!

Also, 750ti =/= 750.
The 750ti is still a good choice for budget / low power gayming, and more than capable of 1080p running just about any title out there at the moment.

should've made him a sub-1K OK machine with all sorts of silly hacks, photoshopped the receipt, and kept the rest.

Well it outperforms a 760 now anyways because Kepler got horrifically gimped. Maxwell is fucked on newer games but not older ones yet.

If I go used cpu, might as well go used everything else, and I'm trying to avoid that. It's the best I can do with the budget and parts availability here. Let me see your 250$ build.

Nah, I actually built him something stupid good, gave him my 1080, and bought a 1080 ti for myself.

I built it around 2 weeks ago. Today he told me he hasn't turned it on yet... hahaha. So much power to waste. Oh well, his monies.

>2.2k for a facebook app machine
Fucking kek I JUST built a 2.2k computer last Saturday for myself. What a total waste.

so has the buyer's remorse settled in yet?

He has lots of money and loves to spend it. I even brought it to his house and set it all up which is why its so carzy that he hasn't even turned the damn thing on lol.

He heard me talking about the build I just finished for myself and just handed me a wad of cash and said "Me too!". He had one request, which was a bigger monitor than what he was using, which was literally a 15" monitor.

N-no considering I had to play everything on medium settings before. It's my first built computer but just wish I had done this earlier. What I do have some buyer's remorse for though was a fucking gaming laptop I bought for the same price while I was in the army since I had to travel alot. Ah well at least I got my use out of it even if it did have shit hardware even for its time.
