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 tried a couple of times to make https://www.reddit.com/r/cuttingedgegaming/ happen, but never reached many people. This community seems to mostly folks playing 1-2 year old games, I wonder if there are more of us who are playing older (but not "retro") games, particularly PC games?

I take DRG is a good game to play with complete randos? The only game I had fun doing that thus far was EDF5, because blowing up everything "by accident" is a great way to build rapport

Obviously DRG is at its best with a few friends, but playing with randoms has been pretty fun and friendly in my limited amount of random games. Communication is mostly just markers and gestures, but I assume some people use VOIP
