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.

Deus Ex Mankind Divided.

Just getting started, but it's been pretty fun so far. Not really appreciating how much it echoes the current happenings in society, though...

Mankind Divided has some too close to home moments but the first game? That shit was almost like a playbook of the next two decades, it's actually nuts.

The dev for that game recently said if they made it now the story would have to be very different because of the echoes with current events.

I played it last week. It was fun. Definetly better than HR.
