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.

Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.

If the game happens to be on sale, a link would be a plus.

I've been replaying Subnautica. It feels like a completely different game the second time around, but still fun. Plus they've got it running much better now than it was on launch.

Had a blast playing Subnautica last year.

I then waited to start playing Subnautica: Below Zero on the Steamdeck while on a flight for a work trip and that was a great experience.

The story hadn't gripped me as much though.

Played it for a few weeks, but eventually lost a few days worth of progress when the deck reset and I hadn't saved in a while so I haven't gone back to it just yet because I was bummed.
It's been long enough that I could get back into it without unconsciously trying to retrace my exact steps. Thanks for reminding me about Subnautica.
