It's December! Which means vacations and deadlines. Which mean unreliable schedule to post weekly threads. So, bear with me this month, I'll try to post them on time, but if I don't, don't worry, we should get back to normal weekly posts from January.

And since this post is so late, going to make it a post for this week and the next. Now, games!

Playing Fortnite, my kid regularly plays it, but when I saw the Lego Fortnite trailer I got intrigued, gave it a try and loving it. Also playing Rocket Racing mode. Haven't gotten a chance to try the third one, Festival I guess it's called.

All other games are on pause due to lack of free time, except for Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1, the smaller size of Vita makes it much easier to lug around, so getting some hours in the game when I don't have anything else to do.

That's all from my end, what about all of you? What have you been playing? Or meaning to play over the holidays?

I was super hyped for Starfield, was thinking about getting Xbox just for that, but the reviews are disappointing. I can see that there might be a game that I may "enjoy" for 40-50 hours, but it doesn't seem to be what everyone was expecting.

Good luck with BG3!

I paid for the premium edition, and I guess I just wanted to force myself to like it because of how much I was on the hype train. I doubt I would’ve gone 60 hours deep otherwise. I was just waiting for that one thing that made it special, but it never came.

Well, hopefully by the time I get around to getting Xbox, there would be some other really good first party exclusives that I wont' feel too bad even I end up not liking Starfield.

I feel for you though. Bethesda is one of my favourite studio and I have been looking forward to Starfield for so long. Hopefully Obsidian will do better with The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed.
