Games that still need more patience: what games released a year ago (or older) are you waiting for a sale on? Or that need another patch?

Other than a slew of Nintendo titles that maybe hopefully will come down in price (the patient gamers’ bane), I have my eye on the next time Divinity: Original Sin 2 goes on sale. A friend who never plays anything other than WoW loved playing Larian’s newest with me and I’m trying to get her to pick this up. Pretty sure she’d like it.

I was also watching Star Trek: Infinite’s progress. I was quite interested in that one at launch but firmly decided to be patient. Naturally, it was discontinued last week. Oof.

Are there any games you’re currently price watching? Or hoping for bug fixes/more content?

Edit: Realized you said one year or longer. I was focused on the “waiting for updates” part.

Definitely waiting for Persona 3 Reload to both come down in price significantly and get the mostly confirmed epilogue content. But I’ll be very patient with this one. P5 Royal took me years to finish and I’ve already played through the original P3 back in the day. No rush at all from me.

Years and years ago I got partway through Dragon Quest XI on the PC, and then got sidetracked and started something else.

Fast forward to a few weeks ago when I had a hankering to get back into it, but the Definitive Edition has released since I last played it and I’d kinda like to play that version instead. But I’m not about to pay $40 for a game I basically already own, so I’m holding off and waiting for a sale.

Other than that, Super Mario Wonder. It’s a fool’s errand to wait for a Nintendo sale, but I guess I’m a fool.

Ashtear OP ,

I managed to get Wonder from my library a couple weeks ago (put in for it at release, to give you an idea of how long that took). Delightful game, wish I had longer checkout period.

But yeah, can still expect to pay quite a bit for Super Mario Odyssey even now.

To me DQ11 is such a treasure I’d probably get it full price, just to let SE know there’s still love for that series (not that they’d listen). But, the S version doesn’t add a ton, though… In fact, you get better music and a little more content (and a 2D mode) but technically a graphical downgrade because it’s the switch version. It might get a half off eventually, though.

Having a full party with Shypox, though… Now that makes S worthwhile, haha.

Music can be added back to vanilla mostly as well with a mod.

Oh yes, good point. It can, a friend did it when I ran concurrently with him. It’s not perfect, but it works. I think in terms of importance, it’s lowest on the list (or 2D mode, if that’s not your cup of tea). The additional story is… OK.

But again, you haven’t lived until Serena and Rab both decide to shy pox on the same turn and the boss decides to go ham on the MC, resulting in game over cause you have all the hard stuff turned on.
