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.

Man I don't even care about any of that, personally.

I don't buy modern games because of the cornucopia of shady bullshit they keep throwing at gamers. Invasive DRM, anti-cheat, 3rd party launchers, account linking, changing the ToU after the fact, releasing completely broken games, pop-up ads for DLC and MTX in game, etc. etc.
