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.

It's been in my library for years and I didn't know much about it. Randomly started playing it a few days ago and I've been having a blast solving the puzzles. It's been a while since a game has really made me want to finish it and see what is at the ending.

I'm at the end now working on the final (I think) puzzle.

(this is also my first ever lemmy post)

Loved Talos. I’m usually a patient gamer but Talos 2 might be the first time I buy a game for full price in a decade. See how it reviews first though

I'm a big fan of Croteam's work (Serious Sam, Talos), but I still haven't bought Serious Sam 4 (released Sept. 4, 2020). I just checked and it is still at €38.99 on Steam. I'm a patient man, I'll wait. Maybe I'll buy Talos II full price, but I doubt it. The savings I'll make from waiting will go to (amongst other things) better hardware to run those games properly.
