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.

Cyberpunk 2077 was probably my biggest patient gamers win... I usually practice just to wait for a sale because my backlog is big enough already, but giving this one time to cook, drop the dlc, and then go on a steep sale? I think I got it for like $20 USD and it got close to 500 hours in it by now...
Runner up would be No Man's Sky...another one that just keeps getting better the longer you wait. Only downside is they keep announcing new stuff...so it's almost like they keep resetting the clock.
