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.

Hell, I hope someone over there is reading this:

Considering your crowd-funded game's MSRP floor as equal to a donation tier of said backers?

Easy solve.

Announce the sale and follow immediately with "Backer's Choice": either a refund of the difference or a free copy to gift to someone.

Boom. Sales through the roof like beanstalks.

Now, go get me that golden egg, ya marketing spooks.🤌🏼

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.
