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.

Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.

If the game happens to be on sale, a link would be a plus.

I recently finished the story of God of War (2018), it was on sale for $25 in the steam winter sale so I said why not.

It's pretty fun. The combat feels great, the story and acting is extremely compelling, and it looks really good too.

After finishing that one, I decided to go back and try to finish Horizon: Zero Dawn, and that ones kinda fun. The acting and story aren't nearly as interesting or good, but the machine combat can be kinda fun, and I've been treating it like a hunting game.

Zero Dawn's story got interesting to me part way through.
One of the only games I've read/listened to all the lore books/tapes.
