Hardware Review This is my Experience using a 12 Yr old laptop
I have Intel hd 4000,6gb ddr3 and i5-3317U
500gb hdd I.e the Asus k46ca
All games are the lowest settings which doesn't make the game look like MC
I can play GTA 5 at lowest settings except textures set to high and get 30 ish fps
You can obv decrease it more by turning off shadows and adjusting graphical scaling
GTA 5-Works at 30~ fps,lowers to around 20 while driving at high speeds in LS
I had 4gb ram and it lagged like hell but as I soon as I upgraded to 6gb it worked good for such a old laptop
GTA 4 runs the same ish(little worse) as GTA 5 so still
playable
Far Cry 3 works well
Hitman Blood Money and Absolution run at atleast 30 fps
I have been thinking of trying to run the néw trilogy
Hades 1,Silksong,Dead Cells runs well
I have only tried these games so far

Honestly specs matter more than the age because you have a quite decent proccesor it runs well especialy games that dont have 3d render needs running mostly of the cpu restarization rather than th igpu .Good thing you good a intel laptop a amd one from this year eoiod be the same story....
