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 kinda like Vanquish in that: it has covers, and you can play it like a cover shooter, but it's more fun as an action game.
Even bullets do more damage point blank.
In terms of movement, it's odd out of the box, but once you start incorporating guard canceling (and you can guard cancel about any free movement in this game—slashing, shooting, dashing… etc.) the system really opens up.
