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.

Interesting to see how dead the MMORPG genre has become. Are there still players around? (sopuli.xyz)

Mostly referring to the release of the latest WoW extension which isn't discussed anywhere (or maybe I missed it)

I was just about to say. My friends wanted something to just mess around in, and I had no idea it was still as popular as it is.

Gw2 is like the sleeper MMO that no one talks about but everyone still plays. I think the lack of subscription and never raising level cap does that to it. It's a very welcoming game to pick up and put down as time allows.

I was an og GW player. I hadnt played GW in like 15-20 years? I came into GW2 just 2 months ago and was overwhelmed at first with everything an old mmo adds over the years. I finally found the play groove and we are all enjoying it, even the ones still playing WoW. So much so I might grab the living story addons.

They're a lot of fun actually. Especially if you like open world exploration. They add a lot of very cool maps.
