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.

MODERATORS
Been playing Endless Space 2 this week, base game through family sharing, with mods.
Went with the tree species, which use space roots to go from system to system along the lanes. Thought I'd be a pacifist, just doing tree stuff.
Only I happened to roll a twin galaxies map which connects the two sides with only one lane and one of the opponents spawned exactly on one of its connection points, so now my roots can't reach the other side...
I think I might move over to the horror genre and start rooting everyone a la Cabin in the Woods (if I'm remembering the right movie).
