I really like having learned delayed gratification. There are plenty of great games (and shows and movies and music) that I'm happy to wait to experience later when I'm ready for them. The only issue is just time-sensitive things like spoilers from other people or games that depend on live servers/seasonal events and I try to avoid those. And being patient often means better discounts, game of the year editions, multiple DLCs, humble bundles, more mods, etc. As long as you aren't worried about FOMO, it means you're far less likely to be surprised or upset over the quality or price point of any particular game.
