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.

Keeping track of wishlist / backlog (feddit.nl)

So it’s great when people post things like the recent “games with interesting mechanics” thread…

But inevitably, I end up adding some games to my Steam wishlist, and then 6 months later the game goes on sale and I’ll get a notification and be like “uh… wait, what is this game? Why is it on my wishlist?” It would sure be great if my wishlist could have a link back to the Lemmy post / TikTok video / Polygon article / whatever that convinced me to wishlist it…

Anyone figured out a good way of keeping track of that? I know there are some price-tracking sites with wishlist functionality… any of them do anything like this?

Same, I return during the two major annual sales (summer/winter) and purge then. If I can't be further enticed when the price is good, then I know it shouldn't be on the list.
