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.

Now that Deus Ex has been cancelled, what other games scratch the Deus Ex itch? (lemm.ee)

It's kind of sad that one of the greatest video game series is on hold for now.
Conspiracy theories, multiple ways of solving a mission, game lore hidden in computer inboxes...
Are there any (pre-2010) games that gave you the same feeling or do a similar thing?

That game kind of haunts me to this day. I tried it first when I was too young to understand game mechanics or English. Then, after several years, I tried it again. Got farther, but got stuck on some cryptic shit. Tried it after several more years and I was even more confused how many mechanics the game has.

Knowing English doesn’t help much in EYE tbh.

it's likely even a hindrance.
