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've been holding out on getting Stray for about a year now. I'm just not willing to pay full price for a relatively short game.

Same. It looks adorable but the price is a little too high for me.

I thought it was worth the $30, but I do wish it had a bit more. Like an extra Zoomies mode for timed runs or races.

I'm sure it really is worth the money but I'm a patient gamer because I'm cheap. I'd rather support a good company in other ways like buying soundtracks and swag versus getting burned on a overpriced game.

Same! It's like Abzu, or Journey and I'll get it when it's 9.99 or less.

Eh it has so much more production wise than journey though... I love journey, it's a one of a kind play experience... but everything is minimalistic. Stray is the opposite so chucking them another 15 bucks to cover character design and animation, level design, voice acting, etc doesn't feel too bad to me

Same! Waiting for it to hit the $10-15 range.

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.
