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.

How long have you waited to get it? Was it worth it?

World of warcraft. I'd been playing the games since warcraft 1. My parents wouldn't pay for my subscription so had to wait years to get it after release. 100% worth it. Amazing game back in the day.

Diablo 3 and 4. 3 was kinda worth it. 4 not so much.

StarCraft2 and hell yeah. Loved it.

Skyrim, again definitely.

Fallout 4. Despite some things lacking I thought it was awesome.

Seven kingdoms conquest. Was very shit.

I was playing Guild Wars back in the days and I remember trying the free trial of WoW. At the end of it, I decided against getting a subscription, knowing how many hours I'd sink in the game. Truely a masterpiece.
