Integrated graphics for games

[wooper2]

Hi! I plan to buy a computer. It has Intel HD 620 integrated graphics card (a PC with also 8th gen i7-8550u processor and 16gb ram). It's mainly for work, but I might want to play a few games on it. will I be able to comfortably play, smoothly and without problems the following games:

The Curse of Monkey Island

The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition

Diablo 1

Diablo 2

Worms Armageddon

Doom 3 (probably not, but worth asking.)

Also, NBA 2k17 on a lower setting?

Thanks!

You can game with older games on the built in graphics, but you better accept lower settings and avoid demanding 3d titles. (doom will probably suck).

Can you please comment on the specific games? (notice for example that "The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition" is a remake, newer than the original title).
Which ones would I need to compromise on, which ones are no problem?

Diablo 1 and 2 should. Worms, not sure. NBA 2k17 probably not (or poorly), doom 3 probably not (or poorly), Secret of Monkey... no idea.
Ultimately if you've settled on a system, don't worry about it. It will perform your main goal (office documents). If you want more, a model with an updated video card is rarely much more.

video for doom 3 on i7-6700k iGPU. It works, though you have to turn everything down. I imagine to stutters badly if you get into a high enemy zone. https/youtu.be/gp8hPE4l2tY

Cool. Thanks! The part I've seen it actually looks good...
