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.

Picked up Shadow of War. Only ever played Shadow of Mordor so interested to check it out especially given the 90%+ discount.
I loved Shadow of Mordor. Shadow of War didn’t really feel like a good continuation of it.
Oh dear, well at least I picked it up for cheap I guess. Maybe I should just replay Shadow of Mordor
Is that the one where you start with a stealth mission that never appears again in the game? It acts as a mandatory tutorial and makes the whole thing unreplayable because of its heavy handed enforcement? If I'm right, this game is a really good minor evolution of the original for exactly one play through. However I wanted to enjoy it a second time a few times but never got through the intro. Hmm exactly how I'd describe metal gear solid 5. I've got great memories just can't revisit it.
Is this the one with the weird multiplayer stuff where you fight other people's orcs, and sometimes they're suspiciously like level 100 and super annoying to kill? And it has stupid sexy shelob?
I never finished it because of those things, but otherwise the core gameplay was alright.
