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.

All good and fair when it comes to a bit of banter :)

Besides, the game sets unrealistic expectations as the characters actually talk.
