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.

Path of Exile 2. I really like that feeling of progress. No other game has that feeling of not wanting to stop playing because you want to see what happens when you get the next skill or weapon or armor.
I'm also playing poe2, but I mix it up with some Tales of Maj'eyal and Lord of the Rings Online. I'm a dirty casual like that.
Is tales good? I have got it some years ago, never got to starting it yet. But seemed interesting.
Tales is really good if you like classic roguelike-hacklikes. It's crazy deep and has a huge learning curve, though, but there's tons of lore, classes, races, abilities, status effects; its pretty overwhelming at first.
My recommendation would be to play something simple like a Dwarf Bulwark/Warrior and start on exploration mode or adventure mode. Exploration is infinite lives and adventure is multiple lives with a set amount you can gain throughout the campaign, though I think those modes are Steam only (the game is free on the main site).
I do. Thanks, I'll give it a go once a clear a little backlog.
