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 for 2$, Titanfall 2 for 3$ and battlefield games from BF3 through BF1 also go for 2$

I've never played any BF games. Do they have good single player campaigns?

BFBC2 was the best BF I've ever played. I wish I would have known that at the time.

Looks like that was removed from Steam a while back. It had a single player campaign from what I read.

Battlefield Hardline's campaign was actually good, though. It felt like a cop movie, which I thought was a neat change for the series.

BF3's campaign was average. It had an interesting story and had some memorable parts but other than that it felt short and generic.

BF4's is worse though. It was just as short and generic as BF3's in terms of gameplay, but so was the story and the general presentation this time around. Not to mention that it's really damn buggy, the bugs that were present during the game's launch were never patched for the campaign. For instance, the FOV slider doesn't work at all.

I haven't played any of the other camaigns so I can't proprerly judge them.

Battlefield 1 has a really interesting campaign. They are all short stories taking place in different points of time in the war. It's also a fantastic multiplayer game that still has active servers!
