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.

Which game have you been the most patient for (as in, delaying purchase)?

For me, it would have to be GTA V. I stopped playing games for years, then built a new rig in 2018. Since then I've played through GTA IV (well, I beat the story, and it was amazing), but I never played GTA V.

My plan is to purchase it and start playing it the day GTA VI is released, as I have enough other games to get through in the meantime.

Good Luck.

You could just pirate them, or nows the perfect time to (re)discover the Xbox 360 with how great the modding scene has become lately.

I do have Mass Effect pirated. Just need a hardware upgrade to run RPCS3 better.

Another alternative is to buy on console. I bought the PS4 version of Yakuza: Like a Dragon because the steam version has Denuvo. I'm kind of torn between generally preferring physical over digital media, versus the openness and flexibility of PC vs the closed-off proprietary-ness of consoles. Trade-offs either way.
