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.

Life is Strange
Life is Strange: Before the Storm
I was going through a really rough time when I played both of those games. There was something in Before the Storm that I know was coming but I cried anyways, multiple times. I’ve never been that invested in a game before and I don’t know if I’ll ever be again.
LiS is exactly what I came to suggest. I cried from every one of the LiS games and so recommend them all, but the original is hands down the best in pretty much every way.
LiS1 and before the storm were excellent, but my partner and I found LiS2 laughable and LiS3 downright cringy. :c
That's some high praise. "Ever" is a very long time.
Yes I went into that game knowing only that choices matter and nothing else. It was a huge eye opener to mental health. I’m very tempted to get a tattoo of the spiral because I want to make it resemble when I made a choice to stay alive. I am in a much better place now and that game has really helped me.
I love BTS. There’s something liberating about playing carefree rebel Chloe that I never managed to tap into when I was playing Max.
Also in LiS you can undo most choices. In BTS you can't
Same here. LiS games are my goto for moods. It's an interesting feeling when a song comes on from the games, that elicits an emotion so well.
I've had a few times hearing a song from the games and either stopping and listening, getting a little teary eyed, or just getting goosebumps.
