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 feel like Doom or Quake are cop outs here, but they are perennial replays, and they have some great horror aesthetics

Hexen for a change?

I wish the Hexen weapons felt more satisfying. They just pale in comparison to the Doom arsenal, with the meaty crown jewel being the double shotgun

[–] grrgyle 3 points 3 weeks ago

They certainly sound satisfying, but definitely can't beat Doom in terms of utility or power fantasy.
