  I feel the description of this community fits me to a tee.

  I’m playing Silksong.

    Typically this community is for games that are more than a year old (i.e. you were patient to buy it) but I think Silksong is an exception and I’ll allow it in this community. I’m also playing it so I can’t judge too hard.

      Also Silksong released at $20, which is a price point people are often waiting for older games to hit

      That previous game I played through was Portal 2. I barely ever buy games on release.

      Just that it was kinda funny this one time I’m playing a recent released game.

  Picked up the original Hollow Knight on sale a little while back. With the all the buzz around Silksong I finally booted it up, having a blast so far!

    Enjoy! It’s a great game. I’ve been cheating on this community and playing Silksong, it’s a great sequel. It’s one of the rare times I’d recommend buying a game when it’s still new. But definitely play Hollow Knight first, it’s such a great game.

  Petition for Silksong to be considered an honorary patient gamer game, given I waited seven years to play it.

    Yeah I’ve been playing Silksong too. Bouncing between that at a replay of Assassin’s Creed Origins whenever I fail on a platforming section too many times.

  When POE2 came out, I played it for a couple hours, hated it, and went back to Diablo 4. I saw it at PAX a week ago and thought I’d give it a try again since I quit D4 and was jonesing for that fix. It’s doing pretty well so far. I’m in Act 3.
