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 with you on Clair Obscur (I need to check tbe spelling literally every time I write that). I usually don't risk the money on new games or things not-on-sale, but after all the positivity, I decided to go for it. And what a game! I'm still in Act 2, and I am loving it so far.

Yeah same, I am a patient gamer for the most part, but with both Blue Prince and Clair Obscur I was happy to support the devs and buy them at launch. Much like with Elden Ring and BG3 previously it has also been nice to participate in the zeitgeist while it's ongoing.

Enjoy yourself with it, for me this is an easy Game of the Year, and without a doubt within my Top 10 of all time. Probably somewhere in the top half of it, too.
