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.

Terraria is there for a few bucks and might be my most played game of all time.

Heroes of Might and Magic 2, 3, 5. These have have given me so much good time since I was a kid gamer.

Some of that good 2010s stuff is on heavy discount. Tomb Raider, Arkham City, Mad Max, Deus Ex HR, Alan Wake.

A bunch of classics are a couple dollars each. like Rollercoaster Tycoon, Blood, Fallout, Indiana Jones Fate of Atlantis, Crusader No Regret, Anachronox, Jedi Knight DF2 (comes with mysteries of the sith), Classic X com series.

Dishonored: Complete Collection at 80% off, amazing deal if you haven't already played these games.

I’m currently replaying the first Dishonored (switching beteeen Dishonored and Hitman at the moment), that’s gotta be one of my favourite games I’ve ever played. The whole series is great but that first one especially is truly special.

They’re so good, one of these days I want to do another playthrough now that I have a more powerful machine. Really bummed there likely won’t be a third

All of my favorite Star Wars games are on sale. When star wars games were good; "before the dark times, before EA."

Knights of the Old Republic I & II
Dark forces
Empire at War
Jedi Academy
Jedi Outcast
Republic Commando
Battlefront I & II (Lucasarts ones not EA)
Shadows of the Empire
Bounty Hunter

All great games worth playing imo
