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.

Picked up all the Splinter Cell games on a sale and started with the first using the EnhancedSC Mod, on Steam Deck. That’s not technically a “Patience” thing as I’m revisiting games from my childhood, but it sure is fun!

My partner and I have also been playing Harold Halibut. The story and visual style are an absolute delight, simpler adventure games are awesome when you’re tired or burnt out! I had my eye on it since it was first announced, it sat on my wishlist waiting for a < $20 sale, and then the GOG version got included “free” via Amazon Prime Gaming. Always nice to have things pan out that way, there have been too many occasions where I bought a game, didn’t get around to playing it, and then it turns up free or “free”.
