Things that run on my 8gb ram laptop and worth buying IMO:
Chained Echoes is very good JRPG, the writing can be excessively "mature" at times but otherwise its really fun JRPG. The story references to plenty of RPGS from the "golden age" but as someone who never played something like Chrono Trigger the story is entertaining and full of twists. Every "random battle" feels like a boss fight you need to use strategy.
Dark Deity 2 is a game similar to GBA Fire Emblem with emphasis on using abilities to finish maps quickly. I recommend playing Deity or lower because the hardest difficulty is imbalanced. Has inbuilt randomizer and some choices that leads to different gear/story for some replay value. The story can be a bit annoying (although steam reviewers are babies so they exaggerate) how cringe the writing is) but the voice acting elevates it.
Slay the Princess is a visual novel about killing a princess. It has lots of different endings and unlike say telltale games even seemingly minor decisions can lead to massively different outcomes.
Lastly, Project Eden Garden is a free game not on steam based on Danganronpa but without tasteless YIKES fanservice that plagued the danganronpa games. It only has 1 chapter right now but from what I have played it has interesting twist you wont see coming and it has a very fun asshole protagonist who is the "ultimate debater". Just set the action difficulty on kind because for some reason the game has undertale minigame bullet hell sections.
