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 suppose Baldur's Gate 3 could be an example for a lot of people. Any recent or just "recent" release you are waiting for to get at the moment?

I'm still waiting on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor to go on sale. I refuse to pay full price, months after release, for a game that seemed to have a few performance issues on release, plus it's an EA game. I also have a bit of a backlog of games I'm still playing, so I'm in no rush to buy a new game at the moment.

It already went on sale once, but it wasn't a very low sale. I think that's a good sign that it won't be too long before it drops to decent a price.

It had an amazing story, but the visual glitches were constant. Luckily I didn't run into any glitches that actually affected gameplay. But the visual glitches really broke immersion.
