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 tried Beyond Good & Evil, but ended up dropping it. Gameplay wasn't strong enough to hold up the story in this day and age. It reminded me of better games like Jak 3 and Stranger's Wrath.

But now I'm playing Crosscode and this game rocks! Lots of good customization, interesting combat, tonnes of secrets and platforming.

Also wanting to get back into Guilty Gear Strive ahead of the big update!

Crosscode is on my wishlist. Thanks for the endorsement.

Mine as well, although not super high up on it. I keep hearing good things though.

I would love it if Steam allowed custom sort/ordering of my wishlist to put them in order of which ones I wanted to get first.

Yeah that would be fantastic.

It's late but I'll try remembering to find a post I saw recently for a Lutris alternative that I think also supports your Steam library and had a lot of sort/filter features.

Always like to see the Jak series mentioned..I've yet to find a game that has vibes like Jak 2 and 3
