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.

Returned to Elite Dangerous after an almost two year break. Just casually space trucking to grind out some credits while watching youtube. Once I get enough to outfit one or two new ships, I plan to finally give exploration/exobiology a try, and check out the changes to the engineering grind.
When I last played, I was kind of at the end of what I'd consider "early game", but there are a decent amount of learning cliffs. Should probably practice some of the other low level content again before moving on.
One of my cousins asked for the game for Christmas and I picked it up on sale for him, so I'm hoping we can play some together at some point.
Amusingly, I tried X4 recently, and it's a MUCH better fit for me than Elite, mostly because I loathe MMO games that don't need to be MMO games.
