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 started FTL for the first time a few days ago and it's hard to put down. You look at screenshots and it doesn't look too interesting, but it's well-designed and clearly very polished.
Even though the gameplay mechanics are quite different, Loop Hero feels spiritually very similar to me.
