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.

Just finished this game. It was really something new and unique. I got it on the steam spring sale discount, and can heavily recommend you do so too, if you are into story and mystery in games.

Having played quite a share of games in my life, this one truly stands out due to its unique setting and high quality characters and art.

If you liked for example Disco Elysium or Detroit Become Human, I believe this game is also perfect for you.

This is a excellent game, I can't recommend it enough. If you like cerebral games - play this one. Don't watch reviews, don't read spoilers. Just play it blind.

Very good game, which allows you to Sparta kick golden statues.

I’ve been wondering about that one, had it on my wishlist forever and forgot why I put it there. I think I’ll pick it up, so thanks for the recommendation!

Thx, it looks good.

I've heard about it before, it's based on a Skyrim Mod. It isn't exactly top on my list but I'll get to it eventually. Thank you for sharing.
