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 recently finished The Last of Us 2. My girlfriend sometimes watches me play my games. And while I thought that TLoU would be a great game to follow, it was hard for her to watch (due to the violence). I wonder if there is a game that would be easy or even interesting for her to watch while I play, without it having to be something strictly "family friendly" , that also has fun gaming mechanics and isn't just a walking simulator. Looking forward to any ideas! :)

To The Moon is worth playing even if the story has some sad points.

Point and click adventures or visual novels might also be a good fit to play together without it mattering much who has the controls.

Ooh. Been a while since I've heard of To the Moon. There's a sequel to that called Finding Paradise, which I also remember liking. Haven't followed them since, but their latest game Imposter Factory seems great too judging by the overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam.

Imposter Factory is, indeed, amazing.
