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 love the original patientgamers subreddit so I was stoked to find this community. And because lemmy seems to have a more knowledgeable crowd any topic I posted here had great engagement and discussions, despite the small community. I am too busy to be a mod but maybe I can help by sparking this discussion: what would be needed to keep this sub going?

Wait 3 years and post when upvotes are cheap.

I always wait for vote sales. People preordering upvotes are crazy

I've got a whole library of upvotes that I haven't even used yet.

Don't forget to make sure it's a "complete" or "GOTY" post, nothing worse than waiting for a mediocre deal on an incomplete post

Also all the spelling and gramatical errors will have been fixed by then.
