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.

Started Assassins Creed Black Flag. The on-foot gameplay is nearly identical to 3 and the lack of a crouch anywhere but “concealing” areas like grass turns me off. Don’t forget the little quirks every early Assassins Creed has regarding traversal. You wanted to jump over the fence? Best I can do is climb it and run along it till I jump in a bush to the right.

However, the surprisingly deep naval combat keeps me coming back.
