I tried a couple of times to make https://www.reddit.com/r/cuttingedgegaming/ happen, but never reached many people. This community seems to mostly folks playing 1-2 year old games, I wonder if there are more of us who are playing older (but not “retro”) games, particularly PC games?
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.

I’m about to play the Bioshock trilogy for the first time in over a decade. Never played 2 and 3, only got about halfway through 1 when it came out. I’m also about 75% through Super Metroid, which I never beat as a kid. I know that’s outside of the 1-2 year window, but I love older games. Scored the Bioshock trilogy for like 15 bucks too, can’t beat that.
Oh you are in for a treat mafren… Those are some awesome games. I played through 2 on Steam and then switched to PlayStation for Infinite. I had the hardest time adapting back to controller and joystick evn though I played 1 on a controller.
