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.

What does this and 'no making your own mods' even do for the hypothetical? I'm pretty sure most people aren't going to solo-dev (m)any additional top-10-worthy games that they'd also consistently enjoy. Maybe for some (simple) classics, but at that point I say so what?
Even accomplished solo-devs lose motivation (also constant reminder of room for improvement is sort of its own curse), if anything I'd say paying for mods to be created probably a less of a patient-gamers thing (and probably more exploitable).
