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.

How long have you waited to get it? Was it worth it?

I waited four years for breath of the wild, and when I finally played it, it was like I was playing an entire new genre. Like I was playing ocarina of time for the first time and the world seemed endlessly exciting. Except this time I could climb mountains and paraglide.

I'm just now getting into it. It is so so so good.

Oh awesome. Yeah I'm so glad I waited, because the game seemed, in addition to everything I mentioned just so smooth when I finally played it. I would just run in a direction for easily like 15 minutes and then just climb a mountain for another 15 minutes. After 30 minutes of that" game time," I was as satisfied with the experiences I was with almost any other game haha, even though I had done basically nothing. It's just pretty and fun and engaging.
