I used to be one of those gamers.. I remember camping out at my local indie shop for 2-3 days waiting for them to get their delivery of Final Fantasy VIII on the PSone. I was only a teenager at the time.. 🤣
Now I don't really feel the same affiliation for my favourite game series', and will happily wait for them to drop in price. Even then, I'm in no great rush to play them when I do eventually buy them.. Case in point, I still haven't played Final Fantasy XII yet - and have only briefly played XIII, none of the sequels.
