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.

Grim Dawn; ARPG from 2016, currently on sale for a few $ on steam. Very well rated with solid story, mechanics, and campaign focus (instead of more on seasons and grind).

I just purchased Grim Dawn this morning. It's on deep discount and I figured it wouldn't hurt my feelings if I didn't get around to playing it for awhile. I haven't started it up yet, got too many other things on my plate and several other games ahead in my queue of things I want to play.

Very good ARPG with tons of depth to build making and a nice dark fantasy theme. One half of my favorite Diablo-likes, the other being the much simpler and more casual Torchlight 2.

Especially co-op, Torchlight was fantastic. Basically all of the right QoL implementations so everything was just about having fun.

My two favourites as well. I never made it far in Torchlight 2 though, once I started getting further in; Grim Dawn came along.
