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 haven't made a new thread weekly exactly, but with the amount of activity it might need to be fortnightly, here's another recommendations thread.

Let everyone know below a game (6+ months old), that you have played recently, are currently playing or intend to play soon.

I recently finished Yakuza 2 and NieR: Replicant, so I'm starting some new games:

Blasphemous - weird setting, so I'm interested to see how it progresses; I had a hankering to play an indoe game, so that's scratching the itch ATM
Mass Effect Legendary - first time, but unfortunately I'm not super invested yet so I'm taking it slow

And some games I've taken a break from but will pick up again soon:

Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky - got a bit tired of the gameplay loop
Ys - Memories of Celceta (near the end) and Oath of Felghana (probably 2/3); stalled for whatever reason

And some games I'm interested in starting soonish:

CrossCode - I have that Ys gameplay hankering, but I don't want to start another just after finishing the above
NieR: Automata - really enjoyed Replicant, but I want to give myself some time so the world feels fresh
a bunch of indie games

Blasphemous is a disgusting game, I bet you're going to love it. There's a sequel out now. It might be time for me to fire up the original again.

I really loved Blasphemous. Great setting, and hard enough to be very challenging until you get into it.
