There isn’t anything on the horizon I am interested in right now. At least, nothing with a concrete release date. The only thing I can even think of right now is getting Adventure Mode in the Steam version of Dwarf Fortress. And that could come anywhere between tomorrow and a decade from now. It’s been “coming soon” since the game came out on Steam. 🤷🏻♂️
I am patiently waiting for Kingdom deliverance to get released and a couple of weeks or months to see what the reviews say about the state of the game. Then I will decide whether to buy it or not.
Another two games on my radar are RDR 1 and Indiana Jones, Pentiment and Slay the Princes but waiting for better discounts on those.
What do you mean by tempting? Like are you asking about brand new games that don’t qualify for “patient” or just games in general? I’m not what most would call a gamer (I’m just an old dude that plays games sometimes) so I don’t know that a “Civ 7” gives me much context as to what’s being asked.
Civ7 is the newest Civilization game that is coming out. Given that this c/patientgamers, I think its safe to assume OP is asking if there are any new games that you will not be patient to aquire.
For myself, I’m going to buy the new Elden Ring at release. I have not been let down by Fromsoft and feel each of the previous Souls and Soulslike games have been worth the full price.
… something Heaven’s Vault related is coming in 2025. I really really hope it’s a video game and not just more novel things. Really hoping something to do with Mazwai!
Yep, I’m probably not going to wait very long before buying it. I got the first one not long after release and I’ve been looking forward to the sequel ever since! Some of the advanced reviewers are even saying it plays reasonably well on the Steam Deck!
By the way, the 100% is sometimes frustrating but a great feeling when you get there! It was the first (and only) game I ever took the time to do that with.
If Civ 7 reviews well and works on Steam Deck, I’ll be tempted.
I’ve been a patient gamer since buying used NES games as a little kid, but I’ll buy at launch every once in a while. I was a single adult with a full-time job when Mario Maker came out. I took a day off work just to play it nonstop. It was a childhood dream of mine to design and play my own levels and spent my teenage years making ROM hacks with Lunar Magic.
I still think about how great that day was, staying home all day to play. Sometimes it’s nice to treat yourself.
I’ll seriously consider EU V when it comes out, but it’s not even officially announced yet. Until then, I’m trying to whittle down my unplayed games. Hopefully I’ll get through a bunch before I find more interesting games.
Less temptation and more gave in already. I got myself the ultimate edition of stalker 2. The first ones were some of my all time favourite games and I’m so glad the sequel got made I felt like they deserved my money.
Have to say I’m very happy with my purchase and I look forward to the dlc in the future.
The atmosphere is great and the gameplay is fun. I strongly recommend it.
I’m not a patient gamer generally speaking but I put so much time into the OG trilogy (all pirated) as well as all the modded repacks over the years (countless hours spent in gamma) that I felt obligated to support them this time around. Since I am no longer a broke kid playing on a laptop that can barely handle the game it feels right to give them full price for a game finally.
I put about 8 hours into stalker 2 before I shelved it. Not because I wasn’t having fun, but I want them to just put that final layer of polish on the game before I finish it. I had already modded it to basically work the same as previous games with some adjustments to make up for the lackluster Alife on launch, but there were still some minor things that I have heard they have been fixing that will probably make finishing my save in a few months more enjoyable so I am happy to wait a little.
If Monster Hunter Wilds plays nice on Steam Deck, I doubt I’ll be able to resist. Otherwise, it’s a small game, but Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 releases next week, and I am hyped. The first HoH is the GOAT roguelite, IMO, and the demo for HoH 2 was very promising.

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.

Get the Ashes of Erebus mod for Civilization IV instead!

Avowed, Outer Worlds 2, and Fable when it finally releases.
Nope.
Ive got plenty of backlog, and virtually no time. At the current rate, I’ll have plenty to play hanging out in hell.

Not while it has denuvo.
I believe the linux version is sans Denuvo
In February, kingdom come II is releasing. Excited off my fucking rocker, currently trying to 100% the first before 2 releases!

Civ 7 is steam deck verified and releases Feb 11.
Don’t ask me how I know that…
The other issue is that civ is never done until the dlc is out too.

Not really. I almost bought some during steam sale especially vtol vr addons but ran out of time and didn’t buy lol

I’m still waiting until it gets more updates but I’m so impatient to play it 😄

The first beta had issues with crashing on Proton but it seems like they figured out the reason.
Also, there is a second beta upcoming so you can test it before release: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2246340/view/547849766230294535
I know it isn’t what you mentioned but it reminded me when I wad reading anyway. I am quite hyped for the new Heroes of Might and Magic.
