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.

God of War on the PS4. I dropped off for about a month but I'm back and just picked up the Blades of Chaos and finishing off a couple side missions before I progress.

Fantasy Life (the original on 3DS)

I tried it last year but got lost and stuck, because I played it like an action RPG.

This time around I play it like a life sim (which it is), and I love it.

Fire Emblem Engage, having more fun with it than I thought I would. After Three Houses, I'd kinda written off Fire Emblem as not for me but only a couple hours in I'm already having fun messing around with character builds.

I actually just started playing Fallout 4 for the first time and only put an hour into it so far because I get eye strain. But a friend of mine is interested in the tabletop RPG so I thought I’d look at the game’s vibe as well.

I installed a bunch of QOL mods and whatnot using Wabbajack.

Striving for Light

It's an indie game that's about to officially release, and to me is the only real "bite-sized" arpg out there. It's essentially a roguelite-PoE endgame hybrid. A run can last minutes, hours, or an tire week if you build well.

The more I play it, the more hooked I am.

Man, just got unravel one and two on steam both for $10 and I've been having a blast

Finally got Bannerlord a couple of weeks ago. After a bit of tinkering I got the GOG version running on Manjaro, so it no longer freezes randomly all the time. I'll be honest, I don't think it's a massive step up from the original, especially given the wait, but I'm still really enjoying it and will definitely look into modding it at some point.
