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.

Yeah from what I've heard 90% or so of HK is fine, and it's the remaining 10% that's a true ball buster. Though some of it is probably optional if you're fine with skipping "good endings" and whatnot.

I don't know why I can't vibe with platforming, but for me it just doesn't give me any dopamine at all. Which is a problem as an ADHD sufferer. Combine that with me being pretty bad at it and platforming games just lead to me being angry and frustrated.

That makes sense. I do like my trophies and good endings so I'll give it a solid try. But yeah, not everything is for everyone, I'm no stranger to enjoying a game I know I'll never play watching someone else go through it; all fine and dandy in my book.
