(I know what you are thinking "but, what about Nintendo's mascot? He has to count for something right?" Again this is just my opinion.) I won't hold it against you if you side with Nntendo's plumber mascot over sega's speedy blue rodent. Anyway, on to the point of this discussion.
   
  
   
  I have loved Sonic ever since he came onto the gaming scene on November 24, 1991. Now I wouldn't call myself the biggest sonic fan as I am sure there are people out there that have way more sonic memorabilia than I do (I only have the games and a few other sonic related items.) When I first played Sonic the Hedgehog in the fall of 1991 when I was 4 years old I did not think a pixelated character could have such an impact on my life...boy was I wrong. I have since played every sonic game from the genesis onward, I skipped the nintendo ds games because I did not have one, and sufficed to say, I loved, and still love, playing a...    less

In these unusual times, it's good to connect with people and discuss what we are actually looking forward to in the future. A book, a game, show, movie, the end of quarantine and what you'll be doing then: travelling, going to a movie theater, gym, visiting an older relative... Anything that makes you smile when you stop to think about how good or how much you want it. Positive thoughts!
  And since we used to have regular forum discussions on the site back then where we could interact with each other outside of Discord, and have deeper conversations where we could sit on a reply for a while, I'm trying to restart that tradition. We could use more activity here. 
   
  So, I'll start. In a loose chronological order:
   
  Tomorrow marks the release of the Total Waaagh! update for Total War Warhammer 2, alongside The Warden and the Paunch DLC. I've been anticipating a rework for the Greenskins (orcs and goblins of Warhammer) for years, and held off starting a campaign as them because I knew it ...    less

  Their last game which was a total success was Skyrim, 9 years ago.
  Their last few games have been failures in one sense or another. Elder Scrolls Online had a terrible launch, but it eventually found its footing a year later. It seems to be going strong, at least. However, ESO wasn't even developed by Bethesda Studios, but Zenimax, so even though it is the better than anything else Bethesda Studios made, you can't even say that Bethesda made it. Then you have Fallout 4, which was considered a big step down from the previous Fallout games despite getting decent reviews and making lots of money. Over time, people's opinion of it soured. Last, but least, comes Fallout 76.  It had a disasturous launch, gaining little money, but many negative reviews. It is still seen as a complete joke of a game.
  Bethesda hasn't put out a high quality product in 9 years. Fallout 76 was probably the worst game they have ever made. ESO is more polished now than Skyrim ever was. The internet has all but completely turned a...    less
