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 was so disappointed with Dune: Awakening. I should have listened to my gut, because I knew it wasn't going to bring anything new (enough) to the survival formula. I bought when it first came out, I've only played it for like 3 hours total.

Interesting, I had the opposite reaction. The game was very addicting and fresh to me and I've played most survival games that's out there
