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.

Planescape: Torment

I haven't played a lot infinity engine games and I've struggled with understanding what the game expects of me in terms of gameplay. Hopefully I'll internalize that eventually but I've been enjoying the writing and vibes so far even if the gameplay feel a bit frustrating and a bit like a chore at the moment.

I could never figure out how to get out of the first area in that game lol. I wondered around for so long doing laps and just gave up.

Yeah the way I got out was a bit cryptic, although I think there are multiple ways. I'm shameless enough to use a walkthrough when I've been stuck for a while, otherwise I'd be having an even harder time.

It's a very different game and not all story advancing actions are intuitive. Enjoy!
