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.

The exploration and level design too! Nothing gives you quite the same rush of dopamine as unlocking shortcuts in Dark Souls. The first time you kick that ladder? Priceless.

oh yeah so far exploring the world is a joy. The way it shows you bits of loot in places you dont get how to reach at first makes it all the better when you find the way to jump over a roof or roll into dubious falls lol. Also talking to the downer chainmail guy and seeing how he reacts to your progress is such a simple but cool addition, for me it makes the suffering very worth it.
