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.

A lot of games I've had on my wishlist are at all time low price now, so I wanted to share (I have not played these games):

Heaven's Vault - I've seen it recommended as similar to the Outer Wilds - 5.49 EUR

Doom Eternal - 3.99 EUR

Pistol Whip - VR rhythm shooter - 12.49 EUR

shapez - great automation game (this one I have played and highly recommend if you like the genre) - 0.78 EUR

New-ish games that you can be more patient about:

shapez 2 - 3d successor to the game above - 13.47 EUR

Ghost of Tsushima - 29.92 EUR

Cyclopean: The Great Abyss - Lovecraftian cRPG with very retro graphics - 7.80 EUR

Static Dread: The Lighthouse - Lovevcraftion "Papers please" - 9.59 EUR

The Horror at Highrook - an occult card crafting narrative RPG, ofc Lovecraftian - 12.94 EUR

Little Witch in the Woods - cute casual witch simulator - 11.96 EUR

This list doesn't cover games I've already bought as I do not track their prices.

Are there any games you'd recommend?

Not part of the Steam sale, but while Control at 90% off is a great deal I feel obliged to raise awareness of the current Remedy 30th Anniversary Humble Bundle, which has their whole catalogue minus Firebreak for about 30 bucks - which I think is an even better deal.
