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.

We picked up Journey and Star Traders Frontier. I've wanted to play Journey since it came out but I didn't have the proper console. Well, I forgot I put it on the wishlist, and that's a real good price so.
I've (sung? musically yelled at?) another person already.
Mass Effect legendary edition (all 3 games + all DLCs) is on for 6 Euro.
That's a great deal IMO
On the third game myself, I can't believe I didn't play these sooner. I understand the hype this series generated now.
Elite Is a space flight economics simulator.
Fly around buy here sell there look at stuff for fun and get into battles
Great game but you will want a hotas set up if you really get into it
I keep trying to get into Elite but it never clicks for me. I was flying around earlier trying to dock into a station but everyone was refusing me so I closed the game. I’ll probably look up a new players guide before giving it another attempt later.
Hotas?
"Hands On Throttle And Stick;" i.e. flight sim gear
Noita is currently 60% off and is hands down the best game I have ever played (kind of). It is ridiculously brutal and you will die very often but you have the potential to get ludicrously powerful as well. The game will cheese you so don't be afraid to cheese it back. In has so much content that beating the final boss for the first time is considered beating the tutorial.
Also if the some aspects are too bullshit for you there is a variety of mods to fix these, and there is absolutely no shame in using them.
Solasta Crown of the Magister for $8.99.
For me it's the best game ever to capture the D&D feeling. The custom Warlock subclass, Timekeeper, is ridiculously fun.
I don’t see it mentioned elsewhere - but if we’re going down the CRPG route and enjoying it I’d recommend to others Divinity Original Sin 1&2.
I’d also recommend Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition. But it’s age might scare some people away – so I typically don’t lead with that.
If you are the simmy type or like space, Elite Dangerous is insanely good, but has a learning curve up front. It's the only game I've put over 1,100 hours in and still haven't explored everything.
Subnautica is another game I can highly recommend.
If you wanna play games with friends (Elite is also MP), The Forest is a great game to bond over.
Black mesa is another banger.
The entire Creeper World series is on sale- Creeper World 1 and 2 are $2.49, Creeper World 3 is $4.94, and Creeper World 4 is $9.99. Personally, I don't like Creeper World 2 so I would suggest any of them but that one. CW2 is side on and I'm not a fan. CW1 and 3 are top down, and CW4 is properly 3D.
The first couple of Creeper World games used to be flash games you could play in browser, but after the age of Java games they ported them to Steam and kept making more and better games.
The basic concept is that it's a cross between a very simplified RTS and a tower defense game, with the added curveball that the enemy is just a liquid that won't stop showing up everywhere.
Are these like a Minecraft game?
Not even vaguely!
Like I said, it's a RTS/Tower defense.
Very much no.
They're more like those pixel physics sandboxes combined with a real-time strategy game. The enemy faction is a simulated liquid.
Doom 2016 for 2$, Titanfall 2 for 3$ and battlefield games from BF3 through BF1 also go for 2$
I've never played any BF games. Do they have good single player campaigns?
Not since Bad Company 2 like 15 years ago
Battlefield Hardline's campaign was actually good, though. It felt like a cop movie, which I thought was a neat change for the series.
BFBC2 was the best BF I've ever played. I wish I would have known that at the time.
Looks like that was removed from Steam a while back. It had a single player campaign from what I read.
Outer Wilds is on sale. Great game if you like space, puzzles or platforming!
I’ve still never beaten it. I’m near the end I’m pretty sure. Great game.
My personal greatest game of all time. Do go on blind tho.
Absolutely, what i would give to play again with no knowledge
No Man’s Sky is down to $23.99. I remember the launch was poor but they kept working on it and improving it. I picked it up a couple years ago on Xbox and have enjoyed it
It is way more of an enjoyable experience now than it was on launch. I just still find it sort of flawed on a core level. The exploration is clearly supposed to be a primary focus of the game, but I just find it incredibly bland after a bit. After I finished with that, I don't really know what to do with the game aside from.. keep flying around trying to find something worth finding.
I put 40hrs into it. I don't regret that, but I also have zero interest in continuing to play it past that.
NMS was such a mixed bag for me. I spent over a hundred hours on it yet still walked away wondering what there was to do in the game.
