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.

I just finished (rolled the credits) Death Stranding last night after right around 100 hours play time. I wasn't so sure about it going in but the gameplay loop of delivering packages really hit well with me. I thought the random boss encounters were a bit clunky but luckily they were pretty easy. I'm guessing that was by design since it's not really a combat game overall. The story is confusing as hell and I'll probably spend some hours watching YouTube videos trying to understand what happened.

I may end up going back to do more road building and stuff in Death Stranding but I'll be starting RE Village tonight for my "Spooktober" game. I love the rest of the series and finally picked this one up on a recent sale so I'm excited to get into it.
