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 was thinking of buying Raft and watched the trailer (sopuli.xyz)

...and the god damn trailer shows way too much of the game! Why do devs do this? It's not making me want to buy the game more, on the opposite, I'm now considering whether it's even worth it. If the devs really want to show off, they could just end the trailer with hinting that there's more and leave it as mystery.

The whole point of exploration games is to find out stuff for yourself and be amazed about stuff you didn't expect. If you show everything it just spoils the fun out of it.

Currently doing my first play through. The story was spoiled for me but I have still found it enjoyable so far. That Said I am annoyed how hard it is to fix mistakes in raft builds. Next playthrough will most likely be molded in some way

Lol lots of mistakes early on.

Did you know Bruce won't fuck with the iron reinforced planks and you can build an inverted pyramid so your base floor can be smaller than your upper deck?

One of my friends used that to build a USS Enterprise model without worrying so much about iron consumption.
