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.

Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty
It got me into RTS and the novels as well.
Also David Lynch's batshit insane original movie.
yeah, seeing the miniseries and the new film has given me a lot more appreciation for how fantastic Lynch's execution really was. Still one of my all time favorites and I love the books (er, original herbert, not the son as much).
If you liked that stuff, check out Herbert's other writing, specifically the Dosadi Experiment and Whipping Star. Any universe that posits a Bureau of Sabotage that fights against the galactic bureaucracy becoming too effective gets my respect.
