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.

What do you guys use? I personally like Glitchwave for it's powerful chart building and the user reviews as a whole tend to align with my own.

Backloggd also pretty cool but a little more limited to use, and harder to dig up the old old stuff as its algorithms strongly favor newer.

Anyone else use these or have recommendations of their own?

Unfortunately, Youtube is still easily the best. Like, even something as straightforward of a channel as Nintendo World Report gave me awareness of Paranormasight.

I'd love something more formally defined, but nah, the stream of consciousness that is a bunch of small creators making background content has been the better solution.

SplatterCat, AlphaBetaGamer, MandaloreGaming... any other good YouTubers for game discovery? Also RIP TotalBiscuit, he was the best of them all.
