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.

I’ve been a member of a discord community for over 6 years now. On any given night you’ll find people playing anything from Battlefield 6, Arc Raiders, Overwatch 2, etc. It’s a very active community with weekly events and we even have a sim racing group finishing up another season in iRacing. If it sounds interesting, they have a website for applications Over 30 Clan

Apologies if this is considered soliciting. I don’t get many opportunities to mention it and it’s honestly a great community. It took me a long time to find one of this quality.

Seems interesting but not for me I think. The focus looks to be almost entirely competitive multiplayer games which I don't really have the time, patience, or interest for right now.

90% of my gaming is on handhelds these days(Deck/Switch 2). It's pretty rare that I'm on my PC and don't own any other consoles.

I've been looking for some communities on Lemmy/Discord that have more of a single player, especially RPG focus. I looked at the Falcom community but it's dead lol. Too bad I've been really into Trails recently!

I thought about joining the Falcom Discord but from what I've read it's just...bad. Doesn't seem like a welcoming place.

Started with Sky FC in 2023 and I'm on CS III now. I love this series!

I think you'll get a lot of hate for it being Discord exclusive, but the vast majority of people have probably never even heard of Matrix. I bet a lot of people on Lemmy haven't even.

Good luck growing the community!

There’s a ton of people that focus on single player, RPGs included. The community has channels dedicated to all types on Genres and games. I’d give it a shot, there’s no pressure and you might find some nice people on there. Take care

Hm ok. Maybe I'll give it a look later when I get the chance!

I think you’ll like it. My activity over the last 5 years has mainly been conversations in channel. I’m only just recently jumping on voice chat for some co-op stuff. Have a good one!
