FallOut 76: Too big to succeed

My first few hours of gameplay in the FallOut 76 environment were pure immersion as much of the mechanics are simply a follow on from the 2015 FallOut 4.  This is brilliant for fans of the series, but I can see why some gamers won’t be playing long term especially being an online game where you seldom bump into other players.  This evident with the 36% within three months of release.

My playlist schedule is packed with juicy titles.

  • The Division 2 (pre-ordered)     12-March
  • Gone Days                                          26 April
  • FarCry The New Dawn                  15-Feb
  • Life Is Strange: Before the Storm 

Naturally, the Division 2 hype train is unstoppable with millions of gamers on standby for the beta and full game.  A new ecosystem will spring up around the game and support services like Discord will be on fire.

Anyhow, I started on a new 2-year MSc journey teaching and learning.

Start 2019 on a Boss Level

No New Year’s resolutions just a desire to do better, break the Status Quo and ditch the disappointments of 2018.

The New Year always serves are an excellent reset point.  This year it’s really awkward returning back to “normal” life after the past few week Caribbean exploration. I’ll be jumping the highly criticized FallOut 76 universe which was surprisingly reduced in price way ahead of the normal lifecycle. 

How bad can it be?

I was gifted The 2017 Resident Evil 7: Biohazard but will hibernate this survival horror and head back to grinding the Division.
