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.

Mine is the Army Men series. Objectively mediocre games at best but the concept of toy soldiers fighting over our yards and rooms has always been cool to me

Ghost Recon: Wildlands. It's your typical Ubisoft open world game, boring gameplay even on extreme difficulty but the world is so beautiful, and I love just driving around the map with no HUD.

The Predator DLC was awesome though. A buddy and I co-oped that on the highest difficulty and it took about a week of nightly playing to beat him.

Still the best representation of the Predator in gaming that I've seen.

I've been thinking about getting Breakpoint during the summer sale. I played a little bit of it a while back, but ended up refunding it for whatever reason. I'm craving it again though. I'll probably get it and dive into it after finishing Final Fantasy 16.
