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 am tempted to buy transistor - is it pretty similar to Bastion? Pyre was amazing, but Im not sure if I need another straight forward RPG style game. Does it have some kind of unique hook?

Into the Breach, Talos Principal, and Ori also look interesting. Although they're all slightly different than things I usually play so not sure.

Ori is a nice game. It is quite casual at first, but it gets more complicated over time. The graphics are nice and the effects not over the top. The story is more...I would say somber?

Overall, it was also a great game for my girlfriend. Visuals and story held her interest long enough to play through the whole game (even the more frustrating parts).
