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.

Edit: it looks like the banner is incorrect. On the front page of steam it’s the right dates and says summer, but when I click on it to see all the sales it says spring with the dates for the spring sale. It’ll probably get fixed soon.

It's not really that you won't have the patience later. It's more like this: Dark Souls 1 is extremely basic in its boss design. If that's your first soulslike, it doesn't matter because you have no frame of reference and you'll have a great time. Come back to it later and you'll react with "...that's it?" to a lot of bosses, which is a shame. This is something I've seen a lot from people whose first soulslike was Elden Ring.

The world and level design in Dark Souls 1 is still on an absolute top tier level so skipping it altogether would be sad. Many consider the first half of DS1 to be the best level designs FromSoft has ever done.
