Re4 remake. I really love Resident Evil, but I haven't set up the time to get immersed in it and experience it.
To an extent, Kingdom Hearts. Still waiting for the Steam Deck release
I wish, I think epic helped them with KH3, so they're just stuck there. I'd just emulate them, everything up to KH3 is very doable on the Steam Deck.
I've been waiting for tears of the kingdom. I know the game won't go on sale by a lot, so I'll just wait for a good deal at my local swap meet.
Waiting for an eventual Elden Ring + all DLCs sale, whenever that (may) happen
I'm not a big CRPG guy but all this talk about Balder's Gate has definitely sparked my interests, that said there's three or four games coming out in the next month that I'd much more likely to enjoy (Trine, Lies of P, LOTF and Starfield) so I'll hold off and wait for a price reduction.
Starfield is honestly the only new game that mildly interests me (ES6 is years away still), and I'm holding out on that one until 1.) a GPU that can run it smoothly at 2,5k with no DLSS/FSR shenanigans costs 500€ or less so I can actually afford it; 2.) script extender comes out and lays the framework for not just mods, but amazing mods; 3.) the ongoing thargoid war reaches its conclusion and wraps up and doesn't immediately lead to rogue guardian AI showing up or Empire and Federation throwing themselves into mutual assured destruction or whatever.
On the other hand, if Starfield won't have HOTAS support, I'll probably put it on hold indefinitely and try out Star Citizen instead, if I ever get bored of Elite. Maybe pick it up when it's 10€ on a sale in half a decade. Fallout 3 didn't turn out to be my cup of tea, after all, and Starfield may fall in the same category. And this is fine.
Pathfinder WOTR - they still have like 2 DLCs planned to release
I'm still waiting on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor to go on sale. I refuse to pay full price, months after release, for a game that seemed to have a few performance issues on release, plus it's an EA game. I also have a bit of a backlog of games I'm still playing, so I'm in no rush to buy a new game at the moment.
I bought and downloaded BG3, but I'm waiting to play it until I have the mental energy to really dig into it.
BG3 like most people and I'll hold of on Starfield for a few months to see how it held up against the hype.
Does Starfield count? I know it's not out yet but I have no plans to get it until/unless it starts getting near universal praise for quality and stability.
That's my usual approach for Bethesda games. After about six months, the community will have made some much-needed quality of life mods, and Bethesda will peobably have fixed any major performance issues or game-breaking, savefile-bricking bugs.
And this is supposed to be a huge game, so there will be a few serious issues as a matter of course.
Waiting for Elden ring to go on sale. Have enough games to keep me busy at the moment. But I'm getting there almost done with the Dark souls series.
Not one that’s already out, but I am anticipating the cyberpunk expansion and starfield. Especially the latter will be hard to be patient on if it’s anything close to what is promised so far.
I'm a big Larian fan and D&D enjoyer, so I made an exception for BG3 since I knew I'd be sinking hundreds of hours easily into that game :P
I just picked up Moonlighter for like 3 bucks so that's my next adventure.
Cyberpunk 2077 comes to mind with the Phantom Liberty DLC being around the corner. Also waiting out on Starfield to see how it goes, Fallout 3 and New Vegas have a special place in my heart but Bethesda has had a lot of misses for me since then.
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.
