I'm a patient gamer for the costs but it hurts when a big game has everyone talking g about it and you know you won't be playing it for a year still

Yeah, I can see how FOMO is a significant factor for a lot of people.  

My son wound up buying Elden Ring @ full price with his xmas money for this very reason (he's 14).  Once you get to a certain age (i.e. you have kids and shit), the FOMO concerns are basically non-existent.  

Unfortunately, that anxiety has to go somewhere, so you inevitably start worrying about how you're going to find time to play all the games in your backlog.
