There’s an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It’s in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it’s one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you’re into there’s at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It’s actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn’t have a community associated with it?

    Got a new hoodie last year and was surprised meeting someone a week later who even knew what Macross is.

    (I know it says Robotech on the top; it’s fan art and there is simply zero official merch available at my place at all so I take what I can get)

      That’s an awesome hoodie!

      Just last month, I ran into someone who knew what this sticker on my laptop was from:

      The Last Starfighter (1984)

      So I pulled up the U.N. Spacey roundel to see if he knew what it was, and he did! So I guess I’m up to 1 total IRL now. And your post makes +1 more virtual.
