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.

Trope or not, gods just end up being a common target for games about heroes escalating in power while fighting increasingly world-destroying consequences.

So, for each post, name a game and describe it, with the assumption being that every description automatically ends with the phrase:

"...and then it ends with you fighting a god."

Technically you don't, just a very powerful being who was allowed to powerful by an AI "god".

Yeah, but you don't find that out until later games. At the end of Chronicles, it certainly looks and feels like fighting a god.

The AI stated that it was an computer intelligence at the end of the first game. There's even the cutscene of the project at one point showing what happened, with the computer having the same voice.
