I'm usually good with avoiding the hype cycle of games, but this one is so hard. I need to keep reminding myself of how I didn't get to SMT5 until after the premium one came out (despite buying it shortly after launch lol)
Look, I’m not judging you for getting a game on day one if you’re REALLY into it. I did the same with Baldur's Gate 3. But I’m almost certain this game (which seems really cool, mind you) is going to get an enhanced or improved version a couple of years from now, which might blow the release version out of the water. If I’m wrong, I can still pick up the game for 50% off since it will probably be discounted by then.
If you plan to get the game and have the spare time to really invest in it, be my guest and get it right away. It’s just a bit silly if you buy it and only play it for 3 hours over the next 3 months.
This. The biggest thing I try to do now is to only buy something brand new if I'm actually going to play it right away.
