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 do the vast majority of my gaming from November through February (i.e. "winter"). Outside of that window, I rarely have time to play, and even when I have time, I usually have other things I'd rather do. I probably have another month or so of my gaming season left. Things just didn't work out this year.
On the flip side, I managed to get about 45 minutes of down time this afternoon unexpectedly. So I fired up Doom (2016), which is the game I've focused on this season. I managed to make it to mission 12 out of 13, so I'm pretty close to the end as far as I can tell! It seems likely I'll be able to finish it in a matter of days, so long as I can find the time!
