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.

Finally grabbed a copy of Sekiro, and though I’ve never been much of a fan of uncompromisingly punishing games, I’m optimistic that this will be the one that gets me there.

Haven’t started it yet, so it’s possible, if not likely that it’s going to kick my ass.

I'm gonna be booting up Pathologic 2 once my new computer comes in.

I'm still playing Warband

Finishing up Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (not patient, I know), Hogwarts Legacy, and A Hat in Time.

After that, I'm excited to play some games I got in the Steam sale:

  • Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
  • Firewatch
  • South Park: The Stick of Truth

I'm going to try holding off buying more games this year to get through a bunch of games I have that I haven't played.

Hopped back into Octopath (the first one) after finishing Sea of Stars. It's a honker of a game haha I feel like it's going to take me a while.

My friends and I are doing Dungeons of Eternity this month. We've had three on at once but tomorrow is the first time all four of us will be on together. Excited!

Still busy with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 since it launched and got dragged into Helldivers 2 by the friends.

I've gotten sucked into The X-Com Files. It's a megamod for the original X-Com game from 1994, built on OpenXcom Extended (an open-source re-implementation).
My first attempt at the old X-Com game lost my interest a few years ago, but OXCE brings plenty of QoL changes and the difficulty of the XCF mod ramps up slower than vanilla. Now I'm having a blast hunting cults, cowering from aliens, building bases around the world.

Lord of the rings return to moria. It's basically been a valve in but with dwarves. Loving it.

Got 5 days left to finish Indiana Jones before the GamePass subscription times out.
