Gaming

There's no magazine on any instance that I see of such a community on the topic matter. To anyone not familiar, a patient gamer is someone who is immune to FOMO, doesn't get caught up or tied up with current modern gaming. Someone who doesn't care that they've beaten a game from 1996 and here it is 2024. Someone who doesn't care that they're still playing games 40, 20 or even 5 years ago on the present day.

I would personally say that I am. I don't have a level of disposable income where I'm throwing down on buying games. I've spent 10 years between 2011 and 2021 wheeling and dealing on game sales. So much that I've piled on over 1,000+ games combined between GOG, Steam, Battle.net and Epic Games.

I do more often than not, play games from so long ago than I do modern games. I'm at a stage in my life where I am noticeably slowing down on gaming in general, I am also finding myself more comforted in what I play and I again can't simply just keep buying newer games. I also don't really care about buying newer games, the time of the present is rich with game sales all day, everyday.

There will always be a time later to buy a game that is ripened for a good sale. So I don't have to worry at all.
