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 hear ya... I find it to be pretty full on and while it's fun while it lasts I couldn't play FPSs like that all the time! I usually play them in between RPGs/JRPGs to switch things up a bit.

Believe it or not but I'm normally a visual novel / puzzle / sim gamer... Stuff like Stardew Valley, The Return of the Obra Dinn, Omori, Slay the Princess, etc. But I was getting a bit bored of playing the same genre over and over, so I'm like, y'know what fuck it, Doom was good 20 years ago it's probably still good today. Try new things. Maybe I'll play the Bluey videogame next
