Favorite Moments
- Fallout 76; multiplayer confirmed and it got rid of all my worries and made me even more excited. Its the multiplayer fallout
weI always wanted (though I know it will be very divisive) - Elder Scrolls VI tease; was not expecting that at all. Looks like a new engine finally as well
- Rage 2; looks a lot better than I thought it would. I'm looking forward to see how it does.
Let me know if there is anything I messed up/missed.
