Patient Gamers

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.

Hearing that Civ 7 is going to have Steam Deck support is tempting me.

What do you mean by tempting? Like are you asking about brand new games that don't qualify for "patient" or just games in general? I'm not what most would call a gamer (I'm just an old dude that plays games sometimes) so I don't know that a "Civ 7" gives me much context as to what's being asked.

Civ7 is the newest Civilization game that is coming out. Given that this c/patientgamers, I think its safe to assume OP is asking if there are any new games that you will not be patient to aquire.

For myself, I'm going to buy the new Elden Ring at release. I have not been let down by Fromsoft and feel each of the previous Souls and Soulslike games have been worth the full price.

I did the same for the new Zelda game, because Nintendo hasn't let me down so far.

I'm patient for most games, because I hate playing update roulette.
