A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

For me there are a couple.
Hades (2020) - I'm not in any hurry with this one. I'd get it if GOG starts to sell it, otherwise I'll wait a bit more.
Outer Wilds (2020) - I'm getting impatient with this. I'd like this more on GOG too, but I think I'll just buy it when Steam winter sale comes.
The Guild III (2022) - quirky trade/life sim game and I have some fond memories of the second one. But that had quite a few bugs even long after release and I hear the third game still looks unfinished so I'm patient.
It's a shame that the Outer Wilds went for a timed exclusive to epic, but it did help me wait to get it!
Hades is so very good.. I don't think it will come to gog soon ish because, if I remember correct that is, epic payed a lot of bucks for it.
Their exclusivity period is over either way. The game has been on Steam for years. I don't think it would block a GOG release in any way now.
GoG has a sale right now, and Outer Wilds is in it. I played when I had Game Pass but have almost no desire to buy it, even though I almost beat it.
Are you sure that's Outer Wilds? https://store.steampowered.com/app/753640/Outer_Wilds
Maybe what you are thinking of is Outer Worlds, which is a common mix-up. https://store.steampowered.com/app/578650/The_Outer_Worlds
I don't think Outer Wilds is on GOG unfortunately.
You're right, Outer Worlds. My bad.
