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.

FF Origin? Lies of P is still full price, Lords of Fallen has some bad reviews, Remnant 2 was good but badly optimised so I can't run it.

Opening up Morrowind to try to replace Starfield or DOS 1 to replace Baldur's Gate 3

I strongly second Mortal Shell, I really love its gameplay and art direction

I really intensely disliked mortal shell. I can tell it's a love letter to dark souls - all the styling is trying very hard - but the gameplay just pisses me off. Especially that first probably-optional boss that you have to parry like 30 times to beat.

It's always interesting to me talking about this game too Souls fans. I have never really found enjoyment in any of the Dark Souls games but, I've dropped probably a couple thousand hours at this point into Bloodborne and I have a feeling that may be why Mortal Shell clicked with me a little better than some of the other stuff like the surge or Lords of the fallen. Either way, it's fantastic that we have such a bounty of these types of games to choose from right now.

The music was really good too. I still remember it a year later.
