What have you all been playing! I’ve been playing… Not much! I’m moving states and haven’t had a lot of time to game 😢

    Unbelievably, I’m playing (and enjoying) Fallout 76 after avoiding it for so many years of following it’s travails from afar.

    It’s buggy in all those Bethesda ways that are almost comfortable in their familiarity at this point, and it’s got a lot to explore. This can tide me over until Starfield is discounted and improved.

    Also been playing Teardown a bit, which has a really cool look and feel. Hyper-real except a voxel universe, if that makes sense. Lots of fun to destroy the environment.

      I got my money’s worth out of Fallout 76, but I do have to say that, playing it on a 165 Hz monitor, you can really feel the load stuttering as you traverse the map.

      Starfield does a much better job of not letting streaming loading affect the framerate than Bethesda’s past titles.

      I suppose that there’s always the outside chance that they’ll re-release some prior game on the Starfield engine. They did do an updated release of Skyrim.
