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'm waiting for Civilization VII's first expansion to come out before buying the base game, as that's usually the time when a Civ game has had all the problematic bugs and balancing issues worked out.

Hopefully.

I've been playing Civ 6 still, it's hard for me to get my hopes up for 7.

Same thing I came here to say.

I got the itch and played a campaign on 6 last week and was thinking about what 7 would need for me to buy it...and the answer is an expansion and a deep discount. The feature changed are kinda meh to me

Or maybe hearing that all the buggy stuff that bugs me about 6 is fixed.
