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.

Finally got around to playing Caves of Qud and it took me a while to figure it out and dial in the controls on Steam Deck but now it’s starting to become clear just how insane this game is..

I find it way too difficult to be enjoyable, sadly

Play the version that saves when you enter a village. The game is too punishing for new players imo

I’m talking about that, still too hard for me :(

Fair enough, its def a tier harder than something like DC:SS or similar. Id recommend cataclysm bright nights :)
