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.

Can't beat the price of free. No parts of the game are missing, just for all of you patient folks.

Quick note: It is a remaster of the original game with the base game and the DLC expansions that were released for it, visual updates and a higher level cap and possible other tweaks. Some reports of stuttering and poor performance.

Sure, give them your data instead of just pirating the game. It’s free either way. Except one way you don’t have to give them data on your life.

They only get what you give though. Plus I feel like the whole "oh no they'll get my data" arguments for a lot of things pretty weak. Being one that briefly used to work in data science and adtech. They don't know you personally, you're just in a cohort of similar people. You're not individually identifiable. Which is fine by me. I'd rather get given targeted ads (when they're not blocked) than the absolute wild west of a mess ads were in the 90s and early 00s.

But you could just… not. Installing their software on your machine gives them file system access, soooo… maybe just pirate and get the game for free just the same.
