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.

Hades is definitely right down my alley, even though I'd never played anything quite like it before. It's one of the games that reignited my enjoyment for gaming, a hobby that I mostly set aside for about 20 years. It's one of the very few games I can fire up when I have a bit of spare time and even though I've played through the levels a hundred times, it's still so much fun.

I've tried to get into Hades 2 and so far it hasn't captured that same level of enjoyment. I think I prefer the relative simplicity of the original and the fact that it takes much less time to start feeling powerful in the original. Much more rewarding. Of course, my opinion on that might change.
