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.

Picked No Man Sky back up, this game is so very beautiful and incredibly fun. I'm pretty sure I'm not even done with the tutorial and I've already been to several planets and I'm slowly learning the languages.

When I don't have time to dig in, Castle Crashers just got an update. Yeah, that game from Newgrounds that's nearly 20 years old. You can make your own character now.

I haven’t even heard the Castle Crashers name in YEARS. I completely forgot it even existed. I used to play it a fair bit with friends back in the day. That makes me feel old now.

That’s crazy that it got a new update. I’ll have to check it out for sure. I owned it on the 360 way back, I’ll have to buy it again on steam. $17 though seems like a lot for a 17 year old game. I’ll have to get it on sale.

Honestly, it's totally worth it. If you have any digital art skills you can make your own guy, or use any of the billion options on the steam workshop. They've also done a remaster and worked out better online play.

Good to know, thanks!

I'd love to get back into NMS

Character creator on CC? Wut?!
