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.

Just finished system shock 1 so like 20+ year old lag, I don't really have a strong urge to play modern AAA games. I mostly just gawk at what's popular and just play indie and old games. I also have a problem of not being able to pick up games in the middle of a series. I need to play a series from the start no matter how mad the earlier iterations are.
recommend me some 10+ year old game series uwu
Depends on what you like my brother.
Immersive sims like thief, system shock, deus ex are very good. System shock 1 is the least playable for normal people but the enhanced edition isn't that bad (you can even play the remake) but the rest are very playable.
Prototype holds up pretty well though you might need pcgaming wiki to get it to run properly if you are unlucky.
Stronghold series, universe at war (not on steam), knights and merchants (with the remake patch), aoe 2 (you can get the 2013 version) though de is good and technically the same game, company of heroes are all good rts games.
Rayman 2, Rayman 3 and Tasmania Tiger if you like collectathon platformers.
