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.

I've been meaning to try Factorio for years. But I'm worried that as soon as I do, I'm never going to get round to playing all the other games in my backlog...

The Devs have stated the game will not be on sale. The price is what they felt a fair price is for their game. Its in a blog post somewhere

Ah I know, I'm not waiting for a sale. Just need more spare time lol

Yeah same. I feel like it would be irresponsible to buy it now, cause my kids are still very dependent on me and it‘d be a shame for them growing up without a father. So until then, the factory must ~~grow~~ wait :<
