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 love the original patientgamers subreddit so I was stoked to find this community. And because lemmy seems to have a more knowledgeable crowd any topic I posted here had great engagement and discussions, despite the small community. I am too busy to be a mod but maybe I can help by sparking this discussion: what would be needed to keep this sub going?

I was really disappointed by mobile games on Android when I jumped on that, though some of it is just that the things that I'd call at least halfway decent are also released on other platforms.

I would recommend looking at Shattered Pixel Dungeon, which a roguelike aimed at a touch interface that's open-source, free, and on F-Droid. I'd call it the best open-source Android game that I've played.

The creator even hopped over here to !pixeldungeon@lemmy.world.
