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.

Haven't had too much time or energy to play the past week so I haven't made much progress. Played another two chapters of The Drifter. Game is still excellent, maybe Chapter 4 has a little too much backtracking and Chapter 5 had the first instances of some more convoluted logic in the game (although I would still not call it "moon logic"). But overall it's absolutely great. Writing keeps being sharp and funny, pulpy thriller mood and pace keeps being quick and tense, voice acting keeps being top tier.
Must play for point-and-click or adventure game fans, I would say.
