I've fallen down the dark hole of watching streamers on Twitch while I'm at work. I've had a lot more monotonous computer-based work, so I've been multi-tasking and watching streamers like Shroud, Dr. Disrespect, Ninja, and VSNZ. The more I watch of PUBG, Hunt: Showdown, and Islands of Nyne...the more I want to build a PC and mess around with these non-AAA experimental games that you can (mostly) only find on PC. But right now is probably the worst time to do so, considering the mark up on graphics cards (thanks a lot, Bitcoin) and I'd probably have to invest in a new computer desk/chair/setup on top of the PC build/monitor/keyboard/mouse expenses. Thoughts? Should I invest?

Is it running better? I haven't tried it since getting my X.

From what I hear, yes. That said—it still has frame rate and rubber banding issues galore.

So... what Xbox-eXclusive-X games should I look into (besides PUBG)? I'm thinking of checking out Subnautica, but I'm curious if there were any other hidden Xbox gems that I might be overlooking.

Ori and the Blind Forest is a great medtroidvania game. Forza Horizon 3 for open world racing, and Celeste for platforming difficulty.

Obvi get Cuphead, and I haven't played it but I'm still interested in trying Tacoma if I catch it on a sale.

Yeah Cuphead is fun. I've hit a wall, but I'll get back to it sometime.
