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.

It's almost the week-end, what are you guys going to play? Also, could we have a monthly thread for July? (reddthat.com)

Majikoi! Love Me Seriously! S - it's a wacky visual novel about a group of high-schoolers in a world where melee combat is pretty much commonplace and all the girl MCs are action manga level of strong. Series is hilarious and I can't stop playing it after getting swept of my feet by Momo in the first game (ended up blazing through it in two days which doesn't happen often these days). This one is a sequel with the same (though epanded) crew and I really can't wait to jump back in.

As for the monthly thread, I feel like if it doesn't happen "officially" the first person to have something to write should just post one themselves instead of waiting. Not like there's a lot of activity here so it should remain visible long enough to gain traction.

Hello,

It's more about pinning it to keep it visible, especially over the course of a month

I get that, it's just if there's no mod to post it I think it's better to have a topic rather than not, especially since it can be pinned afterwards if any mod stumbles into the community again.

We could also bully them into setting up a bot that would post those automatically but this might have its own issues since some people disable bot submissions.

Indeed, which is why I start this kind of threads from time to time

Much obliged for that! I often think about writing on what I'm playing but end up forgetting due to time constraints - threads like this one definitely help with that.
