Best games I already own that I can play with my laptop

Here's my specs:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-N305

RAM: 8.00gb

Graphics: Intel(R) UHD Graphics (128mb)

So i do not have access to my gaming PC for the upcoming future due to personal reasons and I was wondering what is the very best game I could play with my laptop.

Here's my steam profile, hopefuly you'll be able to glance at my games library and come up with a good answer. I do not intend to buy a new game I do not own, so please refer to my library for your suggestions.

Any good game recommendations? Preferably multiplayer, maybe a souls-like or open world game.

I’ve been bored af recently and have been wanting to get a new game. I’ve been playing out Elden Ring Night reign with a friend, and just finished all the bosses.

I need something new or even old tbh that isn’t boring as shit and shitty tbh. I swear nothing good is coming out. I’ve been looking into echos of aincrad and played through the demo but personally found it to be straight shit and judging from steam reviews the full release seems to be about the same.

I’m open to any suggestions even non story games, fps, strategy, whatever. I fucking love fortnite (I play comp) and minecraft I’m just tired of playing them every day and need a break. Gimme your #1 game that you swear by and love.

I had shoulder surgery today, and my surgeon said I could still game, but games that require precise left stick play are tough right now. Any suggestions for quality games that are not so demanding on my left hand? I already thought of older Fire Emblem games because of their slow pace and lack of running around like in Elden Ring or Mario.
