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.

Nothing, absolutely nothing. My backlog is huge with games that have hours to play.

This appears to be written in English, but I can't make sense of it.

We must feed the backlog, always.

Number go up.

makes completion rates go down though, and adds an awful lot of zeroes (hours played)

net negative on the numbers, chief

We're entertainment dragons.

We sleep upon the amassed collection of potential future fun in every unplayed game.

Once you try the game, you may realize that you don't even like it.

Rookie move.

According to isthereanydeal, these sales aren't nearly as good as they were last seasonal sale in June

Whelp, either GameBillet, GreenManGaming, GOG or pirqcy
