Are you the type of gamer who has to be there for the day one excitement or do you prefer to wait?
Borderlands 4 just launched and, predictably, players on Steam are already criticizing its PC performance. Meanwhile, the just-released Hollow Knight: Silksong didn’t raise any performance concerns, but gamers in China were dismayed to discover that the Chinese translation was botched.
Those are just a couple of the reasons some gamers have chosen to reject launch day hype in favor of „patient gaming“: Waiting a year or more to play new games, which means getting them cheaper during a sale and playing them after a bunch of big performance and quality-of-life patches have likely made them much better than they were at launch.
