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.

This game is about to be 4 years old but i finally got around to playing it. I am floored by this game, i couldn't put it down. I love the new combat style, the cut scenes are great how they just roll straight from the gameplay and back. The music, holy shit, the music. Every track is a banger and makes the fights and story even more amazing. Also ran flawlessly on my steamdeck. I can't praise this game enough, my nostalgia is gunna be sore for days.

Yes! I finally got to it in the past month or so, and I had an incredible time tbh.
Controversial I guess, but that's in contrast with my playthrough of FF VII OG a couple years back, which I probably idealised throughout the years and imo really didn't age well.
Remake redeemed the whole "FF VII experience" for me (and I guess we'll see what they come up with next).

Was that your first time playing the OG? If you didn't grow up with it could def be rough.

Yes, first time playing it, so no "nostalgia goggles" to help there.
