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.

So this isn't directly related to patientgaming but my hardware and personal tastes kind of filter me to playing games no newer than five years old.

I'm looking for some recommendations for games that can be completed within ten hours. I've realized recently that this is the sweet spot how much I enjoy playing a game before I get bored of it. I'm open to all types of games. Thanks in advance!

If you’re looking for a little bit different and unique experience, you can try Katamari Damacy and it’s sequel, We Love Katamari

Instead of shooting enemies or run into the end of the stage, these games main gameplay is to roll a extremely adhesive ball (using both of the controller analog stick) to collect various random objects and junk and make it grow bigger in size. Each of the levels has a different objectives and size requirements that need to be completed for advancing to the next level. The game main campaign also has a very light storytelling too, typically involves around the protagonist and his abusive father who always command him to roll stuff up. The graphics are really minimalist and colorful, plus the soundtrack are the absolute fire, covering the multiple genres such as J-Pop, Scatting Jazz, Hip Hop Disco, and even Bossa Nova

Both games main campaign can be completed in less than 10 hours and runs great even on the low end hardware
