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.

A caveat to this is that sometimes your friend's games run better since he/she removed the power-hungry annoying part that prevented you from borrowing it.

My friend also set up a custom accessibility control scheme so he could play games with his hook hand and issue voice commands via his parrot
