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.

Trying to give BG3 another try. Also want to finally beat Undertale. And still continuing Chrono trigger.
Why did you drop BG3 before?
I dunno, I just sometimes get "lost" in big open world games, too many possibilities, and it starts to feel like a big responsibility and a chance to mess up something important. Basically I easily get overwhelmed.
I can understand. Sometimes this causes me to play the starting area of the game multiple times, just to make sure I chose the right starting class etc.
Exactly! I replay a lot, even entire games if I liked them, it's always less stressful than start something new and big.
Another issue is that I often have less energy to continue something that to start, so I often know the beginning of a game or a tv series or anything but don't know the rest because I dropped :')
Well, it's good to know I am not the only weird one 😀
