I think I’m going to check out more of River City Girls 2 which I restarted last weekend. It got an update which makes it way more playable, I hadn’t played for months, but the input lag was excruciating before. Maybe some Mario Wonder which I haven’t played in a while (and still need to finish!).

What about you? What have all of you been playing?

    Skyrim in space, that’s all I wanted from Starfield, but then I heard it’s not Skyrim, it’s something else, and maybe not as good.

    You heard correctly. The biggest thing about Bethesda games has always been exploration, and Starfield utterly fails at it. There are things to enjoy about Starfield, but not the one thing Bethesda is known best for.

      The reason I said Skyrim or Fallout 4 was not to invoke exploration, but all the typical trappings of a Bethesda game, the quests, the engine, the mechanics that are sort of vaguely interesting but don’t always hang together well, etc.

        Oh yeah, the worst things about Bethesda games are there in spades! That said, I got some enjoyment out of it - the NASA museum part was particularly well-done.
