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.

From that list :

  • Keep talking and nobody explodes: incredible fun with friends, even better if the help has the documents physically printed, there's this magic that happens when you frantically search for the right page and try to keep calm
  • Titanfall 2 : worth it just for the campaign, I don't know about the state of multiplayer anymore (servers are back i think, no more need for a custom client), I last played it last year, people were understandably sweaty, movement and gameplay is unparalleled
  • Vermintide 2 : in its best state ever it seems, hours of fun and great challenges, interesting mods for qol and to add to the game's longevity, I dream of when Darktide will reach that point- Firewatch : nice story, beautiful art direction, ending is "controversial" in that it is kind of abrupt with little payoff, but the journey is great, imo a really good walking simulator
  • Metro Exodus : superb open world, great conclusion to the series, pays off even more if you read the book, day night cycle, each map feels handmade given the amount of details, best "skewmorphic" interface in games

Edit : fuck me i edited my comment and accidentally deleted the paragraph about Firewatch, tldr beautiful art direction
