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.

Are there any games you're planning to pick up during the Steam and GOG sales? (lemmy.zip)

We've got two big sales going on, and I'm currently deciding what I would like to pick up. I'm planning to get Expeditions: Rome since it's 60% off, and I'm trying to decide if I want to finally get Terra Invicta.

What patient games are the people here planning to pick up? Maybe I'll find a few that I "need" to try!

I'm really hoping for an armored core 6 sale soon!

Not sure what platforms you have available, but it's 30% off on the Steam summer sale!

I already picked up a bunch, not sure when I will manage to play them >_< I mostly play retro emulation games these days lol

edit: I checked and some of the ones I picked up include Team Sonic Racing, Deus Ex Mankind Divided, and Black Mesa.

I yoinked Undertale and Fallout 76. I just finished FO4, before that was New Vegas, and 3 before that. Finally got hooked on Fallout after years of trying and just not jiving. The show motivated me to try again.

No because my wallet hasn’t tasted the sweetness of money in weeks.

I shall make my own sales, in time.

Also I am not a patient gamer because I wait until a price drop. I am a patient gamer because new AAA games are fucking shit.
