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 thinking about grabbing...
Star birds
Last caretaker
And rv there yet
I'm also eyeballing planet Crafter, and a couple others on my wish list that dropped below $10.
I've also wanted to pick up ultra kill for a while but I never see it on sale for under $20 (Canadian schmeckles)....
Some that I'm still waiting to see come down in price to something more reasonable....
Horizon: forbidden West
Split fiction
Borderlands 4.
Even on discount, these are well over $40.
My friends and I played through RV There Yet just last month. Hilariously awesome game but very hard to solo. Definitely recommend with friends.
My friends rarely play what I play. It sucks.
Same here man. I just bought paladin for D4 and am having fun, but having a hard time getting them to bite for even the base game. I've told them about other 2P games I own only to find they blow me off and play them in their own duo pairs. We've been friends a long time, but I have younger kids so the stars have to align for us all to be able to play together.
We are now playing Bellright over the holiday break but it's a little slower than I'd like. Some others are playing LoL which is okay but still a bit too rage inducing at times for me.
The only reason I was able to play RVTY is because I had it through Family games.
Adulting is hard. I don't even have kids, and even my childless friends have scheduling issues.
It's universal, we're all busy, especially at this time of the year (until we get mandatory days off at least). So much family stuff to do, even if you don't have kids, seeing parents, siblings, cousins, whatever.... It's a whole thing.
I don't think our games overlap very much, so I wouldn't make a good gaming buddy for you. I hope you get to have fun with friends in good games soon.
You too, thanks!
Oh god. The amounts of hours I've sunk into planet crafter is midly embarrassing. Well worth a punt.
I'm pretty deep into satisfactory most of the time. Over 1800 hours.... That isn't a typo.
I figure that it's close enough that it might just fill in the gaps between satisfactory content updates. :p
Have you tried Oxygen not included?
Not yet
Planet crafter is amazing. Don’t wait, grab it and play!
