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.

Not sure how I got the idea, but somehow I ended up searching for Life is Strange on Steam, noticed the first episode (of the original) was free and installed it.

Yesterday I finally played episode 1 and immediately bought the other 4 episodes after.

According to my steam achievement, I actually played Life is Strange for 40 minutes back in 2016, though I didn't stick with it back then.
Looking back, I'd say I was definitely in the wrong age group back then to enjoy and relate to the story properly.
Now I really enjoy the characters and I'm interested to experience the rest of the story. Might make another post when I finished it :)

I did something similar, where I played up until the bathroom scene, wrote it off as "Telltale's TWD with a neat gimmick" and put it down until covid had me blasting through my backlog. By the time it was over, it was easily one of my favorites ever. The characters clicked in a way that made had me emotionally invested in a way I haven't felt since I was a hormonal high school kid.
