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.

Anytime! One thing I appreciate in Jade Empire is that they attempted to do something different with the good/evil dichotomy. It doesn't always come off properly and it's often constrained by the nature of the game (you can't really opt out of the main quest for example) but I appreciate the attempt. Instead of just good/evil they try to make it a "Good Samaritan versus Hardcore Darwinian" dilemma based on opposing philosophies that aren't necessarily good or evil.
