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.

- 7.1% of the total hours spent were on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive / Counter-Strike 2
- 6.4% were in League of Legends
- 6.2% were in Roblox
- 5.8% were in Dota 2
- 5.4% were in Fortnite
Proud to say I don't play any of those. Screw live service games, there are plenty of other gems out there to keep me entertained.
I'd say don't yuck someone's yum but I tried league of legends years ago and it's why I avoid any game that makes me interact with strangers.

The latter two are on-line, but the brain wants what the brain wants.
I've been playing Unreal Gold from 1998. I never finished it.
What counts as an "older game?" Surely not... thinks about the games I played last week ...Tie Fighter or Dune 2?
Baldur’s Gate 2 forever. 🖤
Dungeon Keeper 4 lyfe
Another amazing one.
Ohhh, and the original Diablo. Tristram was such a familiar place after a while.
I fucking love bullfrogs stuff so much. That and worldbuilders like Pharaoh, Rise of the middle kingdom, zeus, etc...
I need to try that after I make my way through Planescape. I started BG1, but it just didn't jibe with me all that much, which apparently is true for a lot of people. I probably should've just jumped to BG2.
I ended up going back to the first one after I finished the second one. It has its charm, and a pretty good story. level cap and the difficulty is what makes it a bit hard.
I should do another run soon. Maybe add some more mods this time...
That’s my go-to “storyline” game. I have so many great (and terrible—thanks, Lich) memories of that game.
I picked it up on a whim, not knowing a single thing about it. Next thing you know, I’m collecting every Black Isle/BG game and spinoff.
Played left 4 dead 2 last night with friends. Still awesome
I'm playing Bloodborne for the first time (emulator). Before that I was playing Far Cry 1 for the first time as well. Far cry was much harder, so far at least.
What emulator are you using? Only one I've seen was PCSX4 and according to a lot of stuff I saw online, it's a pretty outright scam
What makes it a scam?
ShadPS4 has become usable for bloodborne within the last year or so. Runs 60fps on decent hardware
Far Cry 1 is the best one! It was made by crytek, the same studio that did Crysis. I still occasionally go back to replay that game. It's really fun.
Elden Ring and Poe2 are like the only recent games on PC I've cared about
