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.

and the fps fell to a crawl and i couldn’t really move my head to see stuff breaking and falling unfortunately

Huh... Didn't have that issue on my hardware, which made it a lot more enjoyable, I guess. Maybe try again at some point if you've ever got a significant hardware upgrade.

(And, honestly, the missions are kind of a pain a lot of times. It's actually more of a heist and getaway game when you play the missions. I mostly just wanted to play it in sandbox mode and destroy stuff.)

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.
