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.

Games that my non-gamer girlfriend can watch me playing? (lemm.ee)

I recently finished The Last of Us 2. My girlfriend sometimes watches me play my games. And while I thought that TLoU would be a great game to follow, it was hard for her to watch (due to the violence). I wonder if there is a game that would be easy or even interesting for her to watch while I play, without it having to be something strictly "family friendly" , that also has fun gaming mechanics and isn't just a walking simulator. Looking forward to any ideas! :)

Life is Strange (1 and Before the Storm), Witcher 3, Detroit: Become Human.

+1 for Detroit. If you want to stress her the hell out, have her play as the pretty girl android

Life is Strange is also amazing if she wants to try playing since almost nothing is timed and you can rewind most choices too

Though that one choice that cannot be rewinded I obviously fucked up in my first playthrough.

Life is Strange True Colors was good too, IMO.

Tried it and didn't much like it, but everyone's got different tastes.
