Which game have you been the most patient for (as in, delaying purchase)?

For me, it would have to be GTA V. I stopped playing games for years, then built a new rig in 2018. Since then I’ve played through GTA IV (well, I beat the story, and it was amazing), but I never played GTA V.

My plan is to purchase it and start playing it the day GTA VI is released, as I have enough other games to get through in the meantime.

    I’m still patiently waiting for a 3D VR voxel based falling sand engine type game. There are a couple of interesting projects working towards that goal and technology helps make the cubes smaller and smaller from minecraft to something more like cube world with more material interactions.

        I did. I played it a bit and it’s fun. Not sure why it didn’t really scratch that itch. I feel like the mechanics are too simple and the moment i try to push the physics it just doesn’t really do interesting stuff i think. The best part was collapsing a huge structure by cutting each leg but it took a while and the fps fell to a crawl and i couldn’t really move my head to see stuff breaking and falling unfortunately.

          Huh… Didn’t have that issue on my hardware, which made it a lot more enjoyable, I guess. Maybe try again at some point if you’ve ever got a significant hardware upgrade.

          (And, honestly, the missions are kind of a pain a lot of times. It’s actually more of a heist and getaway game when you play the missions. I mostly just wanted to play it in sandbox mode and destroy stuff.)
