A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I’ve been playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance (2018) for the past month or so. Haven’t been this immersed in a game world in a long time. Sure it’s a bit janky at parts and gets a while getting used to, but the world is beautiful and the attention to history and realism is incredible!

Another convert! Once the game mechanics clicked with me it's been the most immersed I ever remember being in a game.

I started playing that one a couple of years ago but found myself horribly lost on one of the introductory quests (I think the first lockpicking was what did me on?) and kinda lost interest from there. I can see the appeal though and at some point I'll certainly circle back to it

It's worth getting into ahead of the release of the second one in a few months time

You say that but there's basically 0 chance I'll buy it anytime soon because I wait for games to be down to about $20. If I really really want it I'll snag it at $30-40 but I don't think I've ever bought a title at $60
