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.

Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

The most recent one to make me cry was...

"I Was a Teenage Exocolonist"

Last Day of June was also a lovely and emotional experience for me. I hope you'll enjoy it as well!

Les Soldats Inconnus

I may be a bit late to the party but The last of us 1&2 had a pretty emotional impact on me. The game is pretty brutal, in every meaning, but the overall experience and story telling is hard to top.

I highly recommend to not get spoiled and play it in order of release!

I mean, you could try one of Jason Oda's games. Continue?9876543210 or Waking.

Ghost Trick is a very twisty game, but a few of the twists had me tearing up.
