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.

This game is amazing and stunningly beautiful even on older hardware. It runs surprisingly well on my older gaming laptop. The game really encourages me to try different things too. I'll be playing this for a while still, much to do.

Next up also picked up on sale though is Outer Worlds, I'm excited for that.

I think RDR2 is an amazing game but I don't agree with the rest of your statement. I think there are a lot of games out there that are very meaningful to people. I really like Street Fighter 6, as an example of a AAA title that isn't "dogs hit". No hate on your perspective but it's OK to relax and take in what people make, not set a big expectation of what you think a AAA game should be.

Bugs on release is a fair criticism, but games have gotten incredibly more complex, quickly, since the 64 days.
