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.

How long have you waited to get it? Was it worth it?

The Outer Worlds. Would have been the last game to date that I'd had pre-ordered, but they went Epic exclusive, so I decided to be patient and wait for the Steam release. Year goes by and it releases for Steam, but at original launch price. Decide I'm not willing to pay full price for a game I had to wait extra for.

Now it's turned into a game of seeing it go on sale and remarking, "Come on guys, you can do better than that."

The crosshair not being in the middle of the screen really killed that game for me.

Fo3 Fonv and halo 3 were all that way also. It's a hard thing to unsee

On console they do yeah, but it's fine with a controller.
With M&K though it needs to be in the middle, they needed a toggle in Outer Worlds, crazy they didn't have one.
