A gaming sub 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.

No memes please.

Videogame prices combined with hardware prices combined with the terrible state of games at launch makes playing older, actually finished games the better choice. It‘s not like Fallen Order‘s a bad game now, but I can play it at 4k handily without selling a kidney nowadays.

…I wish people realizing this was the reason for the numbers but it‘s mainly big, old live service games lol

Read this as “6-year-old or older gamers” and was pretty shocked 40% of gamers were 5 or younger lol
