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.

Monster Hunter Wilds. This is a mix bag of "woah it's great" and "damn they ruined it" for me. The sound design is weaker for some reason, there's a lot of ride & talk sessions with the story, and lots of "look at that stuff, just look at it" instead of letting us explore ourself and discovering stuff like World, but then the actual gameplay is great. I like that they actually bring back character from past game instead of just referencing them, making the series feels connected instead of disjointed from each other.

Also the game dialog basically copied Witcher 3 for some reason, there's no real choice added either. So if you haven't played it make sure you create Geralt, you'll know what i mean.
