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.

In the context of the leaked Warcraft II remake, do you still trust Blizzard to produce good games? (lemmy.cafe)

To me the big drop in noticable internal politics happened somewhere shortly before or around the Overwatch release.

The original design of that game as-released showed a lot of the old design paradigms of Blizzard. But then all post-release direction was the "new" Blizzard, focus on e-sports, numerical balance over gameplay feel, competition over social engagement. The game is an interesting showcase for the fall of Blizzard as a whole in a lot of ways.
