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.

I wish Cyberpunk went under -60% off. I don't tend to buy stuff over -80-90% sale, so more patience for me... 😅

You're not the only one. Pretty sure I got W3 with dlc for $5 ages ago. I'd like to get cyberpunk with dlc for no more than $15. Especially since I was pretty hype for that game. Had been itching for something with a proper world to explore and get lost in, felt like it was going to scratch that itch. I don't often buy things day one, but I was taken in by the advertising and CDprojects rep. I took the day off work and then didn't even buy it because of everything.

I was a day one purchaser of CP2077 and played it on a rebuilt $30 PS4. I guess I just got lucky in that I had almost no bugs, not even a t pose, and it maybe crashed three times in the twentyish hours of my first playthrough. But I remember seeing it on sale for like $10 at Walmart not a month or two after release. Like they got shovelware bullshit they don't discount like that!
