I’m referring to games like Grand Theft Auto, Final Fantasy, etc where they come out on console first, with a promise of a PC port at a later time. Is it really worth the wait? I usually just play the console version because 1 year is a bit of a while and by then I may have other games that I’m interested in.

Question#2
At what point do YOU consider your system purchase justified?

I know everyone has their own opinion as to when they can consider their system purchase justified. Rather it is that amount of games they purchase. Time investment in a system. Whatever. I hear a lot on YouTube where gamers claim that ps4 has no games. Xbox has no games. Switch has no games. My ______ has been collecting dust. ________ should exit the industry for whatever reason.

So, Sea of Theives just dropped. While I dont have an XB1X, I’m feeling a certain kind of way about the reviews. Like they aren’t fair.

I don’t feel like this type of game is of an ilk that it can be fully reviewed in it’s current state, because I completely expect the game will improve and change over time. I’m reminded of the early reviews of my darling Warframe. It’s almost a totally different beast than when it was originally released in the wild and I really appreciate what it has become.

Likewise, I reminded of when I got Fallout 3 game of the year edition on PS3, which was damn near bug free, to my surprised after being patched to kingdom come.

My question is would impressions of these type of games be more beneficial than a “review”? Or would it be fairer if these reviewers came back to a game like this 6 months in to then give a actual review to follow up to their impressions.

I know as gamers some of us move from hotness to hotness but I think this approach could be helpful.
