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 recently finished Hyper Light Drifter. It was decent, pretty good level of challenge in boss battles or when the enemies surround you. Backtracking to find secrets was a chore though. And cloud saves didn't work which was a bummer.

Before that was another attempt to enjoy No Man's Sky. I just can't do it, too many bafflingly stupid design decisions.

Now I'm loading Red Dead Redemption 2 onto my Steam Deck. Finally time to undertake what I hope to be my favorite wild west adventure ever.

I might start RDR2 alongside you. The controls and lack of time have kept me away from the game, but I have been itching for a game like it for such a long time.

I'll download it on my Steam Deck tonight
