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've been playing Dave the Diver but it's been a bit disappointing. Instead of focusing on its main mechanics, the game is completely full of pointless and shallow minigames that break my flow. I like looking for fish and thinking about the menu but the hype it got made me think it was a way better game.

On the bright side, one of those minigames is a Balatro collab that got me to finally get Balatro and I've been having a ton of fun with it.

I don't really recommend Dave the Diver but Balatro is great.
