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.

Caves of Qud has a small discount. I’ve been playing it a lot lately on the Steam Deck.

I just bought Suicide Squad (I know, I know, but it was on sale and I want to experience it at least a little); Pine; and Sniper Elite 2R, 3 and 4.

I'm very excited to get into the Sniper Elite games. I played 5 back when I had Game Pass, but never finished. I figured the others might be just as good.

I'm enjoying Railway Empire. It's on for 75% off the base game and pretty good deal for the entire DLC & Japan collections.

If you love time-wasters with some challenges, then I'd recommend it.

I liked it until the timed missions kicked in. It was a free game on EGS years ago.

I'm making myself finish Fell Seal before I start it, but I picked up Triangle Strategy at what gg.deals says is the record low price. As an FFT fanboy, it looks great (and so is Fell Seal for that matter).

I'll always recommend Catherine, Bayonetta, and Crimzon Clover: World EXplosion. Cheap, extremely fun, and very replayable.

Also, one of the best fighting games of all-time for $4: Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R.

And if you're a Persona person, maybe don't sleep on Persona 4 Arena Ultimax? Super fun fighting game and relatively cheap.

I don’t recommend any games because I purchased a large backlog I can't complete.
