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.

Doom 2016, never finished it a decade ago and i was felt the need for a twitchy arena shooter. Not going crazy with the secrets just playing blind is a lot of fun.

Such a great game; doesn’t overstay its welcome and has just enough mechanics to keep things interesting.

I’ve replayed it every few years and it’s as good as I remembered it every time.

I feel similarly about Crysis and Far Cry 3 too - but am probably in the minority on those two.
