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'm still alive I cannot apologise

Late 00s first person, non-shooter game involving a female protagonist expertly traversing platforms in a techno-dystopia covered in white, with a theme song "Still Alive".

Portal and Mirror's Edge have a lot more in common than I realise

Mirror’s edge still had shooty bits if you wanted to. But of course the proper play-through is the one where you take the 100% non-lethal approach :)

Portal had shooty bits, I mean the whole game revolved around a gun and shooting the correct locations.

[–] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

You’re technically right. But I think we both know that I meant regular gun shooty bits, not portal gun shooty bits :)
