I am helped by being limited to an 8 years old notebook laptop currently.

The 5 games I have played this year, all for the first time: Stardew Valley, The Darkeness II, Star Wars Battlefront II 2005, Outlast, Oblivion.

Nice.

3% - new
85% - recent (last 1-7 years)
12% - classic (older than 8 years)

I played 50 games (many with very little playtime, I was just testing on my Steam Deck), so I'm not sure where the 3% comes from (is that one or two games?). But I played CIties: Skylines II just before it hit 1 year. I'm also surprised that I don't have more in "classic," because I played a lot of pretty old games, and I think many are right around that 7-year old mark.

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.
