I suppose Baldur’s Gate 3 could be an example for a lot of people. Any recent or just “recent” release you are waiting for to get at the moment?
I’ve been holding out on getting Stray for about a year now. I’m just not willing to pay full price for a relatively short game.
Oh so many!
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Elden Ring
- God of War Ragnarok
- Hogwarts Legacy
- Jedi Survivor
- Horizon Forbidden West Burning Shores
- Baldur’s Gate 3 (though it’s not on consoles yet …
I’ve a huge backlog that I’m chipping through one by one, and thse games are only going to get better with patches or cheaper with sales, I can wait for that and reduce my backlog at the same time :D
BG3 is the only game I’ve bought at launch price in my life. No regrets, what an amazing job from Larian.
+1 for God of war ragnarock, no ps5 here so I’ll be waiting for steam release. I just played the prequel this year anyways so I can wait
I am still waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 to go better than half price.
Stray as well, it seems too expensive for a short game.
Saints Row. I don’t see it being a possibility but I have this false hope that volition will bounce back and give a good game.
Cyberpunk 2077. Waiting for the complete police overhaul to play the game. Have not played it yet.
Saints Row. I don’t see it being a possibility but I have this false hope that volition will bounce back and give a good game.
Well, that aged badly.
😭😭😭😭😭
Just Starfield. They keep making statements that, as a long time Bethesda fan, sound ridiculous. Tell me lies, tell me sweet sweet lies, Todd. I would like to be pleasantly surprised, but I am reserving judgment for the actual release of the game.
Remember when Todd went on stage and spent 5 minutes joking about the “tell me lies” memes before lying his ass off to sell the steaming pile of shit that was Fallout 76?
I bet he’s laughing his ass off at all the Starfield preorders, cupping his hands together like a Saturday morning villain and preparing to drink the tears of his customers - Granting him eternal youth.
Hogwarts Legacy for me. I’ve watched a friend play it on PS5, and it looks really cool. I’m considering getting it on Steam while it’s on sale, but I’m guessing it will be the same discount when the autumn sale comes along.
So many great games I’m going to be waiting on until they go on sale:
- Wukong
- Lies of P
- Starfield
- Armored Core 6
- Eiyuden Chronicle
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- A million little games that have just gotten out of early access on Steam
Starfield. Too expensive at release and likely to be buggy
- Tears of the Kingdom - I thought BoTW was fun, but not as fun as older Zelda games; I’ll probably get it eventually, but I want to pay $40 or less
- The Great War: Western Front - still seems pretty buggy, so I’ll wait a bit for patches
- Victoria 3 - I love Paradox games, but they seem to need a few years to get good
- Mount & Blade: Bannerlord - still getting patches and some new content, so I’ll keep waiting
- Starfield - undoubtedly going to be buggy, so I’ll be waiting at least a few months, if not years, after launch to get it
I’m actually considering getting BG3 soon, once I get a few days to play a lot of it. It looks like a solid launch, so I’m happy to pay a bit more for something high quality. I hope they continue to work on it and maybe provide content heavy DLC at some point.
I bought Victoria 3 shortly after release and it’s frustrating how long it’s taking. It clearly has the potential to be a great game, but there’s still so much to be done.
On the other hand, a buddy and I got into Victoria 2 a few months ago and it’s been a blast. A bit clunky at first but it’s so easy to map paint with a friend in vanilla
Stray, cyberpunk and red dead 2 and forza. I’m waiting until they come down in price and it forces me to play through my backlog.
