A gaming sub 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.

Same experience for me.
As with other titles classed as "walking simulators", Edith Finch isn't really a game. It's an interactive story, and on that basis it's a good experience.
I found the message and the aesthetic quite impactful, and it left me with some strong feelings when it was done, like when you finish a good book.
