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 feel like that game literally changed my life in the 2 hours or whatever it took me to play it.

That game is so beautiful. It made me a better person.

I was absolutely entranced.

Dang, you're patient. I played this back on PS3. Does it even have online players anymore? They are an integral part of the experience, IMO.

I didn't see anyone else, and that does sound like a cool mechanic, but this was perfect for me on its own.

I was very happy to find this community because I can wait decades to play a game.

I've never heard of this game before, but was going through all time best game lists and there journey was on igns, and it sounded too good to not immediately investigate.

That's a shame there aren't any players any more.
I'm a patient gamer, too. I almost never buy games at full price. But I try to strike a balance with online(-ish) games. Some experiences you just can't have once a game with an online aspect isn't popular anymore.
