I for one have been playing openmw non stop. Being able to replay morrowind on a brand new modern engine has completely enthralled me. The graphical enhancements you can add are superb, volumetric clouds and fogs keep the same aesthetic of the alien world Morrowind inhabits while also adding some much needed visual flare.

Also the gameplay still holds up...mostly! Finding your quests is an experience in itself. I'm getting terribly used to quest markers and maps that tell me where to go. Morrowind says fuck you "Your quest is by the old rickety bridge south of town besides the river. Good luck" no markers just exploration.

The game is not for everyone but everyone should try it.

Bought Balatro the last day of my vacation and proceeded to play it for 10 hours, woops. It's a rogue like deck builder masquerading as a poker game.

Game is utterly incomprehensible if you haven't played but also is pretty easy to pick up. Can't help but think this is what mobile games could have been if not for capitalism demanding micro transactions and time gating. It's almost a perfect phone game except for the fact that it's also a time blackhole like factorio. Surprised it didn't release on mobile tbh.
