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.

I feel like that game literally changed my life in the 2 hours or whatever it took me to play it.

That game is so beautiful. It made me a better person.

I was absolutely entranced.

Wandering through poetry.

The soundtrack alone is worth playing the game. The incidental multiplayer where you can't communicate directly and you don't see the name of your friend is brilliant.

It's a game that will stay with you for a long time, sort of like Firewatch in that way.

Are there still enough players to always connect you to someone else?

I played late at night and no one joined in the game, but I played at norml hours twice in a row and found companions. So I guess.. Probably usually there are enough people playing

Go for a walk. Maybe meet somebody to walk with.
