    The real smart move is waiting for the 90% off sale the years after launch.

    You’re missing the middle two:

    “Waiting for Game of the Year…”

    “Waiting for the Game of the year to hit 20 bucks”

      Patient gamers.

      If it is single player it’s kinda fine I guess. Esp since your hardware can now probably crush that fps counter.

      Sucks in multi-player if it isn’t csgo cause it’s a lonely life.

        I have a circle of friends who will choose to play something together. Right now it’s Deep Rock Galactic If the patient game of choice is cheap enough, well buy the games for those who are deficient for the cost of a beer / latté.

      Most of the time it’s not cool when it’s breaking, I’d rather pay 5.99 in a fee years for the full DLC all patches applied version.

      Playing new indie or AA games feels alright. I’m a lot more forgiving of bugs when a game is $40 or less and the developers are actively making making improvements, than I am to a bug filled $70 AAA game.

    Buying the remaster 2 years after release? Galaxy Brain.

    I am completely on board with this train of thought. I’ve never once done a pre-order. In fact I often wait for GotY editions so I can get all the DLC too.

    But then… Starfield. It’s so tempting.

    try developing a piece of any software yourself, without any further patches and bugs to fix.
