I first learned about the patient gamer lifestyle in like 2017.
I've been through No Man Skies, through Fallout 76s. I been seen big budget AAA games take over TV and now aren't even heard of again (Anthem, all those superhero games like Gotham Knights and Avengers, Babylon's Fall). I've watched multiplayer games rise and fall.
And if I'm ever curious, I wait and pick up the best version of the game when it is at 90% off.
And best part of this patient gamer lifestyle - games like this, I never even have to bother with. Doesn't even phase me.
I have that Spider-Man game on my steam wish list, have seen it. 30, 40 % off but it's not getting off my list until it's 70% off. I am patient. I have other things to play.
