A gaming sub 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.

Am I the only one who enjoys games that have engaging stories. Sometimes I even turn the difficulty down, so that I enjoy the story and not struggle so much.

I mean challenging games can be fun sometimes, but nowadays I just feel that my life offers me enough struggles not to want another one while playing. For me games offer an escape of reality and I like them chill and casual but still with an engaging story.

If action games are story heavy, I almost always start on lowest difficulty. If there are many Quick Time Events that don't change the story, just some do-over if you fail, I check if I can make them easier. If they DO change the story if I fail, I play QTE's on normal difficulty and live with the consequenses.

Favourite story game is Detroid:become human.
