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.

Edit: it looks like the banner is incorrect. On the front page of steam it’s the right dates and says summer, but when I click on it to see all the sales it says spring with the dates for the spring sale. It’ll probably get fixed soon.

I already bought them a week ago, but Furi and Blasphemous since a friend got them, and we already beat Furi together. Gorgeous game, though the walking sections make me not want to play again, especially since my Furier difficulty save reset.

Also Bloodstained to go with Blasphemous in a bundle, since I was thinking about it for a while, and Beastieball, since I saw some posts from one of the devs on Bluesky a while back and they seemed cool. And the game seems to have great reviews.

I loved furi, but damn those walking sections just made me roll my eyes. Developers think they can just get away with forced slow walking to build atmosphere.

One of the devs boxed, and while I can't find a source, I heard the walking is supposed to give the same feeling as stepping into the ring. Which is pretty neat.

But I started turning on Youtube as early as after the 2nd boss...

Director is a wannabe film director and sighted Steven Spielberg's Duel as the main inspiration too.
