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.

Spec Ops: The Line is $6 on steam right now, it's one of the few games I would call a masterpiece. I was able to finish it in two sittings, it's the perfect length and it's so damn good
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is another masterpiece, $4.50 on steam right now, an absolute crime that a game as beautiful as that is that cheap. You gotta make sure you're wearing headphones when you play it
Spec Ops: The Line was a surprise. The name sounds like a B level shooter. Powerful ending.
That's its greatest asset, and its downfall. It looks, sounds, and plays like the most generic "Americans in the middle east fighting brown people" mid 2000s shooter, and it was entirely on purpose. I implore anyone reading this who's at all into third person shooters to stop reading, pick up the game, and pretend you're the target audience of a game called "Spec Ops" while you're playing. It's $6 on steam, it's over a decade old so you can definitely run it, and it takes like 8 hours to beat.
And pay attention to the loading screen tips, especially in the latter half of the game.
You’re 💯 right.
