Maybe this is why I've only ever connected with Fallout (3/NV/4) and Borderlands 2... you just jump in and start doing shit. Maybe you follow a quest... maybe you go run over to that mountain to see what's there.

When I got bored in NV, I went into the casinos and played blackjack.

When I got bored in FO4, I built shit, and found the settlement size limits.

When I got bored in Borderlands 2, I went and took another crack at the fucking worm you apparently aren't able to kill without a team. Or jumped in a car and just blasted around the landscape like it was a race track.

When I got bored with Fallout 76, I went back to FO4.

I can't imagine grinding away in new games. Why is that fun? I play games maybe 2 hours a week, spread over 2 or 3 sessions... and some weeks don't play at all.
