    Buying any game after 3-5 years is the way to go. The bugs are fixed, patches are out, so mods are stable and most of the time you can find a sale where it costs 10-20€. And if you forget about it before that time, that means the game was not worth it

      I think the last game I bought on release was Fallout 4. I’ll still enjoy a game just as much of it is two years old and only $20.

          The lifeblood of fighting games is the online community. If you wait too long, everyone online is either way better than you or has moved on to the next fighting game.

            Oh. That sucks. “Previous” fighting games don’t have people that stayed?

            When I was finally playing Dark Souls 2, I was surprised that finding someone to play with was not hard. Fighting games scene might be different, though

              The people who stay have often been there for years and you can’t really fight them because they’re so good.
