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.

It's not super old but I patiently waited for a sale on the Repentence DLC for The Binding of Isaac. Besides the new content it's also a sort of v2.5 of the game (if Rebirth/Afterbirth was v2.0) with many quality of life changes. Admittedly some of the changes were a bit startling at first but I quickly got used to them and after a few hours it felt like home again.

I have about 500 hours in Isaac and this refresher has breathed new life into it so perhaps I am good for another 500.

Ohh boy, I don't know how much you read beforhand, but the new characters are the best content of the game. They range from infuriatingly hard to trivial, but all of them have a fresh spin in the gameplay and existing mechanics. You are in for a treat my friend.
