But I’m determined to drag some friends back into The Forever Winter with me again too. It’s rare that I vibe with an extraction shooter, and really…
Bethesda has all sorts of irons in the fire right now. There’s the second season of the Fallout TV show on the horizon, a 10th-anniversary version of Fallout 4, whatever’s happening with Starfield, and Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Online MMO stuff bubbling away contentedly in the background.
