No, I missed that one. I have it in my Steam library though. Maybe on PSN too. I'd have to check. I've heard nothing but good things about it.
You owe it to yourself if you enjoyed 4 even a teeny tiny bit to play NV. It's everything great about the franchise distilled to one game. Ironically, also the one in the series not made by Bethesda.

Playing the easiest Soulslike on the planet and people who like Soulslikes must be sadists. Steel Rising even ramped down just lacks fun for me. What I do like nearly universally about the types of games is the aesthetic and world designs.

That aside, I gave Atomic Heart another chance. Felt very shallow in terms of gameplay and no replay value. Also had to play with headphones so I wouldn't be questioned why a vending machine was s3xualizing my character. If you've played you know.

I think I mentioned Samurai Jack, that was a ton of fun.

Prey, which I didn't think I'd like is a great mystery action-shooter with mild jump scares until you learn to the mechanics.

Ghosts of Tsushims was technically and visually a treat though (and I'll never complain for a game having content), 100% it was fatiguing with not not enough variety but nevertheless recommended.

Rachet and Clank was a throwback to when games were games which was refreshing.

So I've been a busy bee but still working through my backlog. Not sure which will be next.
 
did actually get into Elden Ring again with the latest expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, with a fresh character and once again around half-way through the game i'm just getting bored with the gameplay.
think i just get tired of the grinding combat.

started playing Marvel's Spider Man Remastered again and the game is still pretty cool.
another one that just seems to get boring though after button mashing for a few hours.
i would like to keep it around and just play every so often, but the flow of the game is something that seems to take some getting used to so each time i go back it takes some time again to get into smooth gameplay.

a new Starfield expansion is supposed to be coming in September and am really looking forward to getting into it again.
also looking forward to playing Fallout: London. just giving it a few months to work out all of the problems i keep reading about and update the mod some more.
and waiting for the new Star Wars: Outlaws to be out for a bit and see how it goes with updates, etc. hoping to see it plays as good as it looks and get into that sometime.
