For me is it starfield. I am a bit to hyped up for it. I will try to wait a year or more. Just like I did for cyberpunk and I was hyped for that game since the first trailer haha

if you wait that long then stuff that is still buggy usually have a mod that fix it.

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

Starfield, waiting to see how many issues it has and what actual gameplay and graphics looks like.

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.

Every playstation exclusive that ends up on PC.

Those Spiderman games look SWEET. I'm super excited about Ghost of Tsushima and can't wait for it to be released in 2024, and finally play it in 2027 when it's on sale.

Starfield. Too expensive at release and likely to be buggy

The Expanse: A Telltale Series

I see it has been received well but I'm avoiding all details and waiting for all episodes to be released.

Tears of the Kingdom because I basically just purchased Breath of the Wild a few months ago and haven't finished it.

Baldur's Gate 3, because my friends want to play it all together and so I'm waiting for them

Starfield, Baldur‘s Gate 3, and Cyberpunk.

I‘m so tempted to just be part of the Starfield start hype but… let‘s be honest, it‘s a Bethesda game so it probably needs another year of patches and mods.

And Baldur‘s Gate seems to also require a few patches and I‘m not paying more than 40 bucks for any digital copy of a game, even if it‘s the second coming of Christ among videogames.

Cyberpunk I‘m merely waiting to have a PC that is powerful enough to play it in all its glory. So probably gotta wait half a decade lol

Obviously, on top of my mentioned reasons, it‘s not like I don‘t have 100+ untouched games dozens of them critically acclaimed, so it’s not like I’m just staring at my wall waiting for my moment to strike lol

I'm holding out on starfield. There must be a cyberpunk moment waiting right around the corner because you can't jam all that in a game and expect it to work too.

Also 80% what's out there of so called features of this game only exists inside the heads of influencers. That hopium is the real problem.

I tried holding out on armoured core. I couldn't. Glad I didn't. Amazing game. Easier then Elden ring but still very clearly a from software title.

For me there are a couple.

Hades (2020) - I'm not in any hurry with this one. I'd get it if GOG starts to sell it, otherwise I'll wait a bit more.

Outer Wilds (2020) - I'm getting impatient with this. I'd like this more on GOG too, but I think I'll just buy it when Steam winter sale comes.

The Guild III (2022) - quirky trade/life sim game and I have some fond memories of the second one. But that had quite a few bugs even long after release and I hear the third game still looks unfinished so I'm patient.

I am still waiting for Cyberpunk 2077 to go better than half price.

Stray as well, it seems too expensive for a short game.

im so patient that im waiting for BG3 to come to ps5

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.

I've got Disco Elyseum, factorio, and Cyberpunk 2077 waiting for me to get into the mood to play them.

• 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.

Factorio, waiting for the sale that will never come

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.

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.

I'm savoring Baldur's Gate 3, not necessarily waiting to play it per se but not wanting to binge it. I'm planning on waiting on Starfield for at least a few months.

Im just waiting to get a new computer before I burn through my steam games. I havent purchased a new game in a long time. My backlog is huge!

As always, waiting for sales.

Looking forward to Baldur's Gate 3 and its horny crazy shenanigans, Cyberpunk 2077 now that it's in better shape and I have a PC that can run it decently. Hi-Fi Rush is definitely on my list, rhythm action is a cool genre. I might go for Elden Ring if the price is good, see if I'm going to finally like a single souls games or if I'll bounce off that one too.

Still waiting for a rare chance at a 33% off on Smash Bros Ultimate and who knows Wario Ware Get It Together.

I really want Armored Core 6 after seeing gameplay but my budget is tight right now. Also itching for BG3 but I have owned BG1 EE for years so finally playing that, and also just bought BG2 EE last night on steam for $6 so those will hopefully hold me over a while.

And then there's MK1 coming out soon but I know that'll eventually be packaged with all the Kombat packs for cheap in a few years so holding off there too.

I'm focused on back-to-school and getting some outdoor projects done before winter. To help with that, I disassembled my PC. Once snow starts falling and (hopefully) the Adventure Mode update is released, I plan to snuggle up and finally enjoy the graphical version of Dwarf Fortress.

Well, I already have it, Quake 2. I haven't played yet cause I'm trying to get a couple friends to coop our first go.

Was in the military when Quake came out, so it's one if the few true classics I get to play now for the first time.

Like many others Balders Gate 3. I am now going through the first two. Hopefully when I have completed I and II I might have a PC that can run BD3.

Tears of the Kingdom! I actually never finished Breath of the Wild, I had one more divine beast to go before I got to Ganon, but instead of finishing it I always just chose to run around Hyrule. Now I feel like I can’t start TotK until I’ve finished BotW but I don’t have any plans to finish BotW 😅

Wayfinder. They released into early access and it's very early. Needs more time to cook.

Palia. Interesting concept, but the launch reviews say it's kinda shallow. I'll check in a year or so to see if it's got any depth.

Diablo 4. It started pretty good! Then went to the shitter and hasn't recovered.

I purchased outer wilds and soma… haven’t touched them.

I'm still waiting on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor to go on sale. I refuse to pay full price, months after release, for a game that seemed to have a few performance issues on release, plus it's an EA game. I also have a bit of a backlog of games I'm still playing, so I'm in no rush to buy a new game at the moment.

BG3, Elden Ring, Armored Core 6, just to name the high profile few I'm going to wait for significant price drops in maybe 2 years.

Besides, I do want to play several other RPGs before diving into Baldur's Gate, especially Tyranny, Divinity Original Sin 1 and 2, and the Pathfinder games. Maybe also the old Neverwinter Nights, got the GOG version of them, am yet to begin a campaign

All in all, those ~5 old-ish RPGs alone can probably run me through an entire year.

Re4 remake. I really love Resident Evil, but I haven't set up the time to get immersed in it and experience it.

To an extent, Kingdom Hearts. Still waiting for the Steam Deck release

I splurged on Baldur's Gate and have enjoyed every minute I've put in so far. I'll have to get back to Tears of the Kingdom at some point too.

But I'll be fully holding off on Armored Core, Starfield and the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection for a while.

Baldur's Gate 3

Armored Core 6

Remnant 2

...and (depending on your definition of "recent") a lot more. Any of the big games coming over from PlayStation (God of War, Spider-Man), Cyberpunk, etc. I don't generally buy games for over $20, unless it's someone I want badly and it hasn't gone below that after a couple years.

Diablo 4. I’m gonna wait quite a while for this one I think. Firstly I’m not willing to pay the price it is right now but mostly because the game needs to get better. It took a long time for Diablo 3 to turn in to a decent game.

Starfield. I’ll definitely be giving this one at least a year, probably more. I’m expecting it to be riddled with bugs at release, possibly even borderline unplayable.

Armored Core 6, Jedi Survivor, Starfield. Until some sale I think. I’ve already bought Elden Ring, Diablo 4, and Baldurs Gate 3 this year, and I might get another before the year ends. Gotta slow it down lol

Edit: Hogwart’s Legacy, forgot about that one.

Starfield is honestly the only new game that mildly interests me (ES6 is years away still), and I'm holding out on that one until 1.) a GPU that can run it smoothly at 2,5k with no DLSS/FSR shenanigans costs 500€ or less so I can actually afford it; 2.) script extender comes out and lays the framework for not just mods, but amazing mods; 3.) the ongoing thargoid war reaches its conclusion and wraps up and doesn't immediately lead to rogue guardian AI showing up or Empire and Federation throwing themselves into mutual assured destruction or whatever.

On the other hand, if Starfield won't have HOTAS support, I'll probably put it on hold indefinitely and try out Star Citizen instead, if I ever get bored of Elite. Maybe pick it up when it's 10€ on a sale in half a decade. Fallout 3 didn't turn out to be my cup of tea, after all, and Starfield may fall in the same category. And this is fine.

I've been waiting for tears of the kingdom. I know the game won't go on sale by a lot, so I'll just wait for a good deal at my local swap meet.

Pathfinder WOTR - they still have like 2 DLCs planned to release

Waiting for an eventual Elden Ring + all DLCs sale, whenever that (may) happen

I'm not a big CRPG guy but all this talk about Balder's Gate has definitely sparked my interests, that said there's three or four games coming out in the next month that I'd much more likely to enjoy (Trine, Lies of P, LOTF and Starfield) so I'll hold off and wait for a price reduction.

Not one that’s already out, but I am anticipating the cyberpunk expansion and starfield. Especially the latter will be hard to be patient on if it’s anything close to what is promised so far.

Honestly in the indie area, it's not recent, but Blade Kitten. Spotted that on Steam and remembered having fun with it on my Xbox 360 long ago. Real cheap at 3$.

But I need to finish more indie games First! So it will be a reward once I finish Protodroid Delta. Which would've been a lot easier if it had cloud support so I could play it on my Steam Deck without restarting the game, but nooo

Granblue Fantasy Versus since they're coming out with Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising in November. I'm not in a rush since I have Street Fighter 6, and Guilty Gear Strive had a big update recently as well.

Dark and Darker, it's out on Chaff games but with their legal troubles I'm not sure I wanna give them my money and risk the game getting taken down again.

I'm a big Larian fan and D&D enjoyer, so I made an exception for BG3 since I knew I'd be sinking hundreds of hours easily into that game :P

I just picked up Moonlighter for like 3 bucks so that's my next adventure.

Cyberpunk 2077 comes to mind with the Phantom Liberty DLC being around the corner. Also waiting out on Starfield to see how it goes, Fallout 3 and New Vegas have a special place in my heart but Bethesda has had a lot of misses for me since then.

BG3 like most people and I'll hold of on Starfield for a few months to see how it held up against the hype.

Waiting for Elden ring to go on sale. Have enough games to keep me busy at the moment. But I'm getting there almost done with the Dark souls series.

Does Starfield count? I know it's not out yet but I have no plans to get it until/unless it starts getting near universal praise for quality and stability.

Aliens Dark Descent!

I bought and downloaded BG3, but I'm waiting to play it until I have the mental energy to really dig into it.

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

I bought and played Diablo 4 but got bored. Waiting for Blizzard to enhance the end game / seasons so they’re more interesting/on or with D3.

Out of choice? Because silksong is kind of doing its own thing.

They literally said that?
