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.

Back 4 Blood.

You know what, it's not Left 4 Dead 3, but I love it. It feels like L4D meets Call of Duty. The card system really makes the game for me; building better decks to play higher difficulties with more chaotic corruption cards.

The corruption cards especially make levels so much more replayable than they already would be. Getting fog over a level or a different type of ridden mutation appearing spices things up nicely.

It's also extremely beautiful at points. I love the graphical style. It's colorful and a tad cartoonish at points, with some genuinely disgusting visuals and insane ruins thrown in for good measure.

I wouldn't buy it for full price, but the $9.99 I paid for the full game + DLC was more than worth it, in my opinion.
