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 admire your restraint!

It's not been easy. There's also Mass Effect, which I got around to playing last year — but that's largely because I forgot about it after being patient about it for only a couple of years.

How was it? Any desire to play the full series?

[-] kbal@fedia.io 3 points 3 weeks ago

It was good, although its age really showed even compared to the sequel which I'd already played. Strong start to the series. They did some kind of remaster a few years ago which was what reminded me to try the original, so maybe that's worth it if you don't like old-game mechanics.

Interesting. Will definitely try ME at some point, didn't realize there even was a remaster.

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.
