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 picked up the Definitive Edition of Age of Empires 2 on sale last week after they released a new dlc update. It was still a bit overpriced for a 25 year old game at like $(US)10, but I've definitely gotten my money's worth so far.

I'm definitely not an RTS gamer and I'm not really interested in the multiplayer but the campaigns have been a lot of fun. I really wasn't expecting there to hundreds of hours of just campaigns content so it's been a pleasant surprise.

Im down to playing that game against the comp, with liberal use of the pause button. Not the pvp of my younger days. But considering I borrowed and cracked it back then, and only paid for it the first time on steam some years ago, man that game has given me some great returns.
