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.

PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now (www.pcgamer.com)

7.1% of the total hours spent were on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive / Counter-Strike 2

6.4% were in League of Legends

6.2% were in Roblox

5.8% were in Dota 2

5.4% were in Fortnite

Proud to say I don't play any of those. Screw live service games, there are plenty of other gems out there to keep me entertained.

Valve have worked so hard to disgust me away from dota 2, they're so real for this ❤️

I'd say don't yuck someone's yum but I tried league of legends years ago and it's why I avoid any game that makes me interact with strangers.

zero-k
wz2100
agar.io
WoW

The latter two are on-line, but the brain wants what the brain wants.

I think the only games I've played in the last month or so have been Trackmania United Forever and bonk.io

Have you tried Beyond All Reason? Personally I liked it more than zero-k.
