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.

Are you holding off on any game in particular right now? (lemmy.world)

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 would wait on Starfield myself and wait for mods, but considering it's part of gamepass, I see no reason to not give it a fair shake, especially since I have a few more months of gamepass I got gifted. I do however plan on buying the game like a year or two from now (or maybe ten, if Skyrim is anything to go on) on Steam to do another modded playthrough

Is it going to be on the PC version of Game Pass? I was going to wait because that's a lot of money for me not having much time, but I can probably get behind "renting" it by paying for Game Pass.

Yeah, it is. Apparently you can even get the early access if you really wanted to by just buying the deluxe upgrade and skip buying the base game. I have it pre-downloaded for the main release (no idea if I even have time to play it then)

Nice! I might not have to be patient for Starfield at all. I mean, at least after Wheel of Time season 2 anyway.
