    My tactic of waiting a year until a newly released game is fully patched and grabbing it with a discount has yet to fail me.

        I’ve just switched over to watching games being played on Twitch. I can enjoy all the latest games, at max settings (minus the 1080p twitch encoding), and divert my attention to other things simultaneously.

      Let’s not kid ourselves, Bethesda depends on the unofficial patches and mods to really make their games working and shining. A year or two is mandatory for their games. 😅

      People post the xkcd Cake is a Lie comic to try and elaborate on you losing on the social aspect of avoiding the hype train.

      But then I see posts made yesterday about Afraid of Monsters and think: Dumbest xkcd punchline. People are STILL making jokes like that out of games older than Portal.
