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.

Played some Doom 2 (halfway through Deck the Underhalls) today, gonna play Skyrim now (started new playthrough few weeks ago). After finishing Underhalls I'm gonna proceed to play even more Doom, and after finishing Skyrim I definitely wanna play more Morrowind, some big things released recently [1] [2].
It always saddens me that Bethesda totally derailed past Morrowind. That was a masterpiece of a game, but ever since then it's all just plain worse, dumbed down experience. Don't get me wrong I still kind of like Oblivion, it's not a bad game, but compared to Morrowind it's just piece of shit. Haven't even tried Skyrim as I fear it's even more streamlined "experience for average Joe"...
It certInly is, it feels very hollow and empty compared to earlier games. I feel that it marks the beginning of the end for Bethesda, it was a pretty steep decline from there.
