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'm the same. One game at a time, for the most part. I might mix in a non-story game in parallel sometimes like a roguelike, but only ever one story based game at a time. My brain can't handle switching back and forth, I need to dedicate my full intention hah.

I usually can, as long as it's not the same genre. But lately nothing sticks, it's obviously a me problem, so I'm going to try to stop trying new games for the sake of it for a while.

By the way, thanks for the Alan Wake 2 tips.
