Baldur's Gate 3 is great if you like narrative driven RPGs and turn based combat.

Don’t ask me, I’m always late to games. Red Dead Redemption 2 is great. I’m interested in checking out the new Spider-Man and Star Wars game but afraid of getting hooked obsessive again. Maybe this upcoming winter unless we’re Mad Maxin’ it by then
