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.

Looking for games that will make me cry (lemmy.sdf.org)

Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

To The Moon.

Rakuen.

Life is Strange.

Last Day of June.

All of those made me cry, and they seem common recommendations on this kind of request.

To the Moon is both one of a very few games to ever make me cry, and the only game to ever make me ugly cry. I'm talking full-on runny nose, the works. The final 10% of that game is devastating.

I recommended Life is Strange to a guy at work on a Friday and that Monday he came in yelling "I didn't sign on to feel things! Why did you do that to me?".

Yeah, sounds about right. I didn't know what I was getting myself into...

Life is Strange is a good one.

+1 on To the Moon and Life is strange.

I came to the comments to add those myself!
