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.

Love my PS4 (lemm.ee)

This is a little love letter to my PS4.
I bought it refurbished three years ago for a little bit more than 120 bucks. This was my first Sony device! I already had an Xbox 360 from 2013 and a Switch from 2017.
My first game was Detroit: Become Human. What an experience!
I played the Uncharted series for the first time. Then The Last of Us 1 and 2. I thought I was a grumpy old gamer but man, TLoU is something else. And then I got PSVR! So many crazy nights playing Beat Saber, Skyrim VR and Superhot VR.
I love being a patient gamer. And I love my PS4. I still have so many games to play through and it just keeps on chugging along.

If I didn’t have little ones I would have waited. I don’t get to use my tv any more. :p

lol same reason I got a Steam Deck. Bought the cheapest one, dropped a 1TB SSD in, and been having a blast. I have no regrets.

Steam Input is NUTS. Have you checked out all the stuff you can do with the touchpads yet? I got tired of having to tap shoulder buttons to swap items/weapons so I set up the left touchpad to be a radial menu that sends keyboard commands to switch to specific gear in Dinkum / Stardew Valley. It's flawless and in 2023 that feels weird to say about any device or UI.

Also gyro aiming is so damn good holy shit.
