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.

It's a bitter sweet feeling afterward, but I love it when a game has characters where, after the game is over, I miss seeing a part of their lives. Be it due to the characters themselves or the interaction they have with one another, exiting their world feels more like a loss than when normally putting a story away.

Are there any games where you experienced similar? While it can be a bitter sweet feeling, I know that it is a sign that I really enjoyed what I was playing and love to find these experiences.

LiS, LiS: Before the Storm and LiS 2 just hit me differently. I'm not really the target group but somehow it got to me on an emotional level like no other game.

I never finished them! I should

I finished the first, bought the second but have yet to start it. You really should finish the first, if you have time to really enjoy it. It was extremely well done, and even as a cis male, was extremely impactful and emotionally worthwhile!

Seconded for Red Dead Redemption 2.

I miss Arthur Morgan like I miss a passed relative. Amazing character writing.
