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.

So this isn't directly related to patientgaming but my hardware and personal tastes kind of filter me to playing games no newer than five years old.

I'm looking for some recommendations for games that can be completed within ten hours. I've realized recently that this is the sweet spot how much I enjoy playing a game before I get bored of it. I'm open to all types of games. Thanks in advance!

It truly is something special. Every time it’s on sale I end up buying a key and giving it to somebody I know just so they can experience it.

Sometimes I feel a bit silly with how much and how often I recommend this game, but it truly is something special.

I got the soundtrack on vinyl just recently and listening to it is like microdosing the game.

Those Eelis videos gives me life. I went and watched the entire About Oliver play through after seeing the highlights.
