Minecraft is often a good time and can run well on low end machines.
Text based and RPGs you say? Maybe it's time to explore some MUDs?
For the King is also a nice chill game with a great system reqs:fun ratio. Currently on sale too.
OP, MUDs are a real treat if you've never experienced them, but you want to find a good, active, sane one. I highly recommend Discworld MUD, even if you're not familiar with the Discworld book series. I've been there on and off since the late 90s. It's amazing how much love this game still gets from admins and creators, and it's 100% free to play.
Just keep in mind they're no less addictive than their modern equivalent, MMOs.
I have never heard of MUDs before---fascinating, that IS something I'd like to explore.
Haven't seen someone even reference a MUD in probably five years. I don't doubt there are a lot of them still running but I couldn't even guess what that scene looks like these days.
