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.

Anything Borderlands really, except for the Tales of the Borderlands adventure games.
I'm currently playing BL1 on the Deck.
Tales from the Borderlands is one of my favorite games! The rocket launch scene is so fucking epic.

Skyrim, grab a few new mods and the game is practically new to be again!
I've played Skyrim for over 500 hours but I've never played mods. Which ones are your favorite?
I'm pretty lame and just run USSEP, Cutting Room Floor, SMIM, Immersive Citizens, Alt Start, Rich Merchants, etc.. When I try to go nuts with Mods I spend all my time modding and never actually get into the game. I wish I could find some community advice on minimal mods. When I "used to" look on the skyrimmods reddit most ppl seemed more interested in how many mods they could get, like quantity over quality.

Crusader Kings. I keep coming back to it when I'm between other games and I don't see that ever changing
- Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age: Inquisition are both games I've played through and loved multiple times over
- Skyrim lol but it's infrequent for me now
- Civ (I've only played 6)
- Minetest
- Silent Storm (S2 & S3)
- Fallout
- 0 AD
Shenmue and Shenmue II are probably the games I've played the most over the years.
Then it's on to the Telltale series of games and especially The Wolf Among Us.
In general I'm more of a "play lots but complete few" person.

Mad Max
Steamworld Dig 2
Have finished it 3 times already and there will be a 4th time for sure
At the moment, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. The one I've revisited the longest and most often is Dragon's Dogma.

Fallout New Vegas
Skyrim
GTA 5
Red Dead Redemption 2
Rome Total War
Coincidentally, New Vegas was the first 'resource-heavy' game I played to test my new Steam Deck. Played great and still holds up. I try a different way to kill Benny every time! This time, he ended up as a slave for Caesar. Benny, vidi, vici!

The Binding of Isaac. Around 1000 hours between the original and Rebirth.
- Halo 2, I know most cutscene quotes by memory
- X3: Terran Conlict, huge time waster, janky, infuriating and I love it
- ~~Chromehounds~~ (not really, I lost the CD and my X360 is dead (Armored Core ain't got shit on Chromehounds, fight me))
- Crysis 2, better looking graphics than all the AAA games *I* have seen in the past 3 years
- Terraria, it's Terraria
- Starbound, it's Terraria but in space
- Valheim, it's Terraria but you're a 3D lowres viking (it's low resolution textures exhalt my love for normal mapping)
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
The ones that I find myself going back to the most in the last decade are indie classics. Hyper Light Drifter, Kerbal Space Program, FTL: Faster Than Light (I just realized all these titles sound similar, but they're a 2D character action game, a spaceflight simulator/shipbuilder, and a very unique strategy game, respectively, and they're all among the best in their genres). Also, as a horror game fan and a Resident Evil fan in particular, I keep replaying the Resident Evil 2 remake from 4 years ago; easily one of the best horror games ever made.
Skyrim Dragon age origins Zelda breath of the wild
For me, Minecraft is not single player, I mean, I always play it with other people , I know it's only for me 😁
My games are Zelda link to the past, s. Mario world and xcom apocalypse. I replay them at least every two years
