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.

Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

Yakuza Zero has a story that is excellent, albeit goofy at times. In the end, it got me good.

The Yakuza series beyond Zero is also bloody amazing.

One moment you're laughing your ass off and the next thing you know you're in emotional anguish. If you're okay with Japanese weirdness (oh trust me it gets really weird), this series is a great rabbit hole to get into
