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 am tempted to buy transistor - is it pretty similar to Bastion? Pyre was amazing, but Im not sure if I need another straight forward RPG style game. Does it have some kind of unique hook?

Into the Breach, Talos Principal, and Ori also look interesting. Although they're all slightly different than things I usually play so not sure.

I tried transistor right after Bastion and didn't really like it in comparison... Then I went back to it loved it!

It plays a lot different because of the whole action economy thing, but it's definitely worth a try.

I might pick up into the breach too, it looks like the sort of "puzzle" game I can get into

Into the breach is amazing, it definitely plays like a puzzle game, the kind where you play the moves in your head to make sure the move you're making now won't come back and bite you in the ass 2 turns later :)
