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.

How 2 Escape with a friend (can recommend, not mindblowing but a good time), Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes with gf (pretty fun experience)
Solo I‘m bouncing around between games, but shoutout to NFS Unbound which I like less the more I play it lol
Even for 5 bucks, it‘s NFS Heat but worse in basically every aspect
I thought Unbound was marginally better than Heat but almost every character in the game is completely grating. We're running from the cops at 100mph, stop talking about your abusive childhood.
I don‘t know… the soundtrack, the presentation, the map, the car handling, the story (although I‘m already skipping cause I couldn‘t take it anymore), it all seems inferior to me. Although neither is a masterpiece, but Heat left a more competent impression on me.
Maybe the graphics are better which I‘d hope after all this time, but the goofy pedestrians take away from that as well. The police could be better as well, they were obnoxious in Heat and practically couldn‘t be shaken off without a ramp/jump.
