I tried a couple of times to make https://www.reddit.com/r/cuttingedgegaming/ happen, but never reached many people. This community seems to mostly folks playing 1-2 year old games, I wonder if there are more of us who are playing older (but not “retro”) games, particularly PC games?

    Depends on what you like my brother.

    Immersive sims like thief, system shock, deus ex are very good. System shock 1 is the least playable for normal people but the enhanced edition isn’t that bad (you can even play the remake) but the rest are very playable.

    Prototype holds up pretty well though you might need pcgaming wiki to get it to run properly if you are unlucky.

    Stronghold series, universe at war (not on steam), knights and merchants (with the remake patch), aoe 2 (you can get the 2013 version) though de is good and technically the same game, company of heroes are all good rts games.

    Rayman 2, Rayman 3 and Tasmania Tiger if you like collectathon platformers.

        Yeah I can imagine over watch mind breaking you especially with the “new” one. If you like multiplayer games rainbow six siege is pretty much the best competitive fps on the market.

            Hey friend, long time no see, but yeah it’s worth about that much because you have to grind or pay for a million extra operators. My recc just either buy the meta ones or ones that look fun to play. Given that they do give you a few depending on the edition and the older ones are much cheaper in terms of in game grinding.

              Sadly my laptop is making weird noises. Brrrrrrrrrrhrhrhrhrhrhrhrrtrtrtrtrtttrtr. I think the fan is filled with dust. But I don’t know how to open it without breaking it so I haven’t done it. I’m in pain.
