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.

I feel the description of this community fits me to a tee.
I'm playing Silksong.
Typically this community is for games that are more than a year old (i.e. you were patient to buy it) but I think Silksong is an exception and I’ll allow it in this community. I’m also playing it so I can’t judge too hard.
That previous game I played through was Portal 2. I barely ever buy games on release.
Just that it was kinda funny this one time I'm playing a recent released game.
Portal 2 is awesome.
I make these posts every week, I hope to see you comment on a future post too!
no doubt
Also Silksong released at $20, which is a price point people are often waiting for older games to hit.
Regardless of semantics, Silksong is the only game I’ve played since it released.
