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.

Tears of the Kingdom! I actually never finished Breath of the Wild, I had one more divine beast to go before I got to Ganon, but instead of finishing it I always just chose to run around Hyrule. Now I feel like I can’t start TotK until I’ve finished BotW but I don’t have any plans to finish BotW 😅
Another Tears of the Kingdom here.
I'm like ... 5/3 subscribed between professional and personal obligations for the next several months, so don't have time for that in my life.
When I got around to Breath of the Wild in late 2020, I arranged it so I could basically take a vacation from reality to Hyrule for over a week with it, and the experience was delightful, so I want to hold off until I can properly enjoy it.
I did similar things at the ends of periods of over-obligation with Fallout: New Vegas and Skyrim (earlier, but both years after their release), I'm a sucker for disappearing into an open-world RPG as a vacation.
I'm in a similar predicament except with ToTK - the game is so good I don't want to see the credits roll so I've been running around doing side quests instead lol. And I'm someone who could not get into BotW, I gifted my copy away
I'm holding off on TotK too...I remember how much of a time-sink BotW was. I recently played through BotW and I can suggest you stick to shrines and main quest and you can do it. Then take your time messing around in TotK since it's the same map.
Good tip thank you!!
LOL so I started the game last night after typing the comment. I stayed up pretty late.... :D
