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.

What are your favorite single player games to go back to often?

Minecraft
Furi
Mario 64
Super Mario World
GTA SA and Vice City

It's kinda rare for me to go back to a single player game and replay it, but there are some games that are nostalgic in the same way place or smell can be nostalgic.

I know them so well that I can't help but want to go back and visit and I never really get disappointment by the experience. Sure, I don't get as immersed as the first time, but I definitely still enjoy the games.

Minecraft
Astroneer
Skyrim
Ratchet & Clank 2,3, or ToD

I can't really describe what it is about R&C that I am just enamored by. I've played them on and off since the first game when I was 7+.

Couldn’t agree more on Ratchet & Clank. It’s just so much fun. Progression and upgrades are good, reasonable wit/comedy without being too on the nose or campy. Always has different and interesting guns to smash enemies.

Yes for Ratchet and Clank! Super glad they ported a rift apart to PC, been enjoying it

Do you recommend Astroneer as a multiplayer game? I've been wanting to play it with a friend

I haven't played multiplayer in years so I'm not sure how it is but as far as I can tell it should be fine. If you haven't ever played, there are some really frustrating bugs that will most likely never get fixed (things like items and vehicles falling through the terrain) but overall it is pretty fun and relaxing
