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 think my brain is stuck in 2018 because some voice in the back of my head is telling me I should be excited for when cyberpunk and starfield come out, lol. Maybe I'll get to cyberpunk soon but the backlog is yuge

One of the best games of the last decade. Top-5 easy.

I played it since launch. Originally on a Xbone, and my biggest complaint back then was minimap lag. You wouldn't believe how many turns I missed.

But yeah, rough launch. Made a storybook comeback. Now it's incredible. My biggest gripe now is that it doesn't have NG+. I went on Pavel's streams and begged for NG+ for 2 years. All I wanted was Levels. Not SC, not money, not 'ware, not unique weapons. I just wanted to start the game at max level. They heard NG+ and thought we wanted the NG+ from Witcher 3. Which I actually hated. Cuz all the enemies get a buff and all your specced out end game gear is outclassed by garbage you pick up on the side of the road by the time you leave White Orchard. But that's not what we or at least I wanted.

It was okay.

Didn't really like the ending(s). I think one of the lead guys was like "cyberpunk can't have happy endings", so I guess they never read Neuromancer.

Gameplay was so-so, but I fixed some egregious problems with a mod. People who thought it was going to be life changing were living in a dream land.

It shouldn't be forgiven for releasing in such a broken state. Do we really think the rest of the game industry didn't notice how well it did? How little they're willing to do if it means still getting that money rolling in?

Still haven’t played it.
