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.

For me it's probably "Golden Sun" from GBA (and "Golden Sun 2"). I played them at the time on the original GBA at least 3 times each, and on emulators in phones & tablets a few more. I liked the story, the graphics, the combat system, the endless possibilities you could do, the discoverability, hidden corners, the different regions, the global map... If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it, it's full of nice things.
I've read the whole thread and nobody has said Spintires/Mudrunner/Snowrunner ... it's basically the same game, it just keeps evolving and it's impossible to really complete because by the time you do there's more levels released.
For me, driving big trucks through mud is repeatedly appealing.
I'm kinda the same way with American Truck Simulator. Its a great background game so I play it once every two weeks at least
Mmm, whereas to me the on-road truck simulators feel like drudgery, lol
The ones that I find myself going back to the most in the last decade are indie classics. Hyper Light Drifter, Kerbal Space Program, FTL: Faster Than Light (I just realized all these titles sound similar, but they're a 2D character action game, a spaceflight simulator/shipbuilder, and a very unique strategy game, respectively, and they're all among the best in their genres). Also, as a horror game fan and a Resident Evil fan in particular, I keep replaying the Resident Evil 2 remake from 4 years ago; easily one of the best horror games ever made.
For me it’s San Andreas and Final Fantasy X
San Andreas was so ahead of it's time. I think it's one of the few open world games that managed to do it right
It’s so annoying how open world has become pretty much the default for so many games now. Especially now that games take so much time and money to develop, I can’t only think of a handful of open world games from the last 10 years that were deeper than a puddle
Sacred Gold, the first game of the sacred saga Age of Empires 1, 2 and Age of Mythology Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy Titan Quest Grim Dawn Warhammer Dawn of War 1
Undertale
- Kingdom hearts 2
- Kingdom heart 358/2 days
- Minecraft
- Halo campaigns
- Far cry 3
Virginia and What Remains of Edith Finch are two of my favourite narrative experiences. I've played through both of them a few times and I'm always eager to go back.

KSP, Skyrim, and Witcher 3. Sometimes when I particularly hate myself I'll play Dark Souls
Metroid Prime trilogy
Skyrim
Ocarina of Time
Bioshock, Dishonored, Watch Dogs, Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas.
Metal Gear Solid 3.
So hype for the rerelease and the remake
I just started Witcher 3. It's great and has very good low graphics mode.
