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.

It's been in my library for years and I didn't know much about it. Randomly started playing it a few days ago and I've been having a blast solving the puzzles. It's been a while since a game has really made me want to finish it and see what is at the ending.

I'm at the end now working on the final (I think) puzzle.

(this is also my first ever lemmy post)

Awesome - I didn't know about the sequel. I did everything in the first one and the DLC. Loved the puzzles, writing and the Easter eggs. And mostly just the vibe. It's a hauntingly beautiful world.

Best bit of the writing for me was the mash up misunderstandings of history. It reads like a language model had incomplete info and put several key historical events into the wrong order, and drew some nonsensical causal conclusions about them.
