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.

It's a bitter sweet feeling afterward, but I love it when a game has characters where, after the game is over, I miss seeing a part of their lives. Be it due to the characters themselves or the interaction they have with one another, exiting their world feels more like a loss than when normally putting a story away.

Are there any games where you experienced similar? While it can be a bitter sweet feeling, I know that it is a sign that I really enjoyed what I was playing and love to find these experiences.

A few come to mind:

Ys 8 The Lacrimosa of Dana

Danganronpa

Phoenix Wright trilogy

Life is strange

Katana Zero

Axiom Verge 1 and 2

Can definitely relate to a few of these, namely Phoenix Wright and Danganronpa. While they're cartoony (particularly the latter) the interactions between characters makes it very easy to attach to them

Not a week goes by that I don't think about Y's 8 at some point. It was my first entry into the series, it took my restarting 4 times before I got a "feel" for it and got sucked into the story. I am so glad I did. One of my all time favourite series now. Currently playing through Origins waiting for the English and hopefully PC release of Nordics
