New thread!

This week I am hopelessly addicted to starfield. I have not been this into a game for a long time....

Started playing RDR2 after playing almost all games from the top of my backlog. Folks kept telling me RDR2 would ruin other games for you, so I saved it for the last. I'm still in the first chapter and I like it a lot. I like how it's slow paced, feels more like a simulator so far. I'm also bit worried as folks told me you can miss certain side quests if you advance too fast, so I want to ignore all the main quest missions as much as possible. This caused my horse to die due to harsh winters right in the beginning coz I thought I should venture out a bit :p

I've also started playing Metro 2033, it's a slow start and the controls are a bit wonky, but seems like a simple linear game so far.

Yeah if you're wanting to do as many side missions as possible, it's best to do all the white colored missions first. The yellow one's aren't going anywhere and they are sometimes chapter milestones that can lock you out of side missions. But I wouldn't worry too much about it. A. There are so many quests that are only available at a certain time/place or after certain events, you'll never hit them all in one play through. and B.

spoilerYou can play a lot of the side missions you missed in the epilogue. Albeit with different dialog.
Take your time and enjoy it, definitely worth it.

Now I'm going to have to fire it up later just to spend a couple hours roaming the wilderness camping, hunting, and fishing with my "Never leaving chapter 3 Arthur"
