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.

Starfield, Baldur‘s Gate 3, and Cyberpunk.
I‘m so tempted to just be part of the Starfield start hype but… let‘s be honest, it‘s a Bethesda game so it probably needs another year of patches and mods.
And Baldur‘s Gate seems to also require a few patches and I‘m not paying more than 40 bucks for any digital copy of a game, even if it‘s the second coming of Christ among videogames.
Cyberpunk I‘m merely waiting to have a PC that is powerful enough to play it in all its glory. So probably gotta wait half a decade lol
Obviously, on top of my mentioned reasons, it‘s not like I don‘t have 100+ untouched games dozens of them critically acclaimed, so it’s not like I’m just staring at my wall waiting for my moment to strike lol
BG3 is the only game in my life I've bought at launch. No regrets. This studio definitely deserves the full price tag. I've experienced like 5 bugs throughout my 130 hours of playing. I came from a poorer country and still made sense to me to vote with my wallet what games should be striving to look like on launch.
