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'm looking for games that make me feel small and insignificant (self.patientgamers)

Pretty much, I'm looking for a game where I'm not the hero, I'm not the protagonist, I'm just a pawn in the big picture.

Preferably a game with a big open world too, one that feels real and isn't just a predetermined path for my player.

I also like games where you aren't clearly stronger than all your opponents like you're some sort of God so they actually feel intimidating and there is a fear of dying

All suggestions are welcome

Thanks :>

Quite literally the game, Grounded.

Just finished it and it's very much like No Man's Sky or Submautica. It's very good.

There's an interesting little game called Insignificant I've been keeping an eye on for a while that does a similar thing if not as graphically-rich. There's also Smalland and Moss.
