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.

By the time I finally said "fuck it, I need to see what the fuss about this game is" for Dark Souls, 3 was about to be released. All I ever heard about the game up to that point was how hard it was; but that the difficulty wasn't bullshit. I figured it was just pattern recognition, and was right; but there's so much more nuance to that. The difficulty brought me in; but the game feel and the lore got me hooked and I now own every single one of the Souls/Borne/Ring/Sekiro games. And even a few knock-offs, like The Surge.
