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.

Honestly it's worth it if you're down for mods. It felt like an insult when it came out, it was like call of duty wearing morrowind's skin, but since then it's become a pretty robust modding community and Legacy of the Dragonborn is miles above anything in the base game.

    Modded skyrim is one of my favorite games, vanilla skyrim is just... meh.

    I know the Wabbajack scene is pretty big for Skyrim, is there any big mod pack you would recommend? Skyrim is also an embarrassing blind spot for me (played enough of Morrowind and Oblivion back in the day so never got around to it) but after all the hundreds of hours I've spent modding Fallout: NV, Cyberpunk and STALKER Anomaly I am not sure I want to dive headfirst into another multi month mod project.

    I've been enjoying Nordic Souls as a Wabbajack pack. It's got gameplay adjustments that do change the difficulty curve but is closer to the base game in difficulty than many of the other prominent mod packs. It also has a smaller footprint (~100GB maybe?) as compared to some others. Skyrim feels more modern and fresh, for sure.

    I downloaded it on a whim after I used Wabbajack/Nexus Premium for some Fallout New Vegas modding (went with Viva NV). I wanted to get full value from that premium sub lol.

    Edit: I will say that I don't think Nordic Souls includes Legacy of the Dragonborn, so I'd look into that and choose another pack if desired.
