I assume that's just because everybody is busy playing "Elden Ring:
Shadow of the Erdtree". I know the base game was quite popular here,
so I suspect many of the regulars here have rushed out to buy the
recently-released DLC on day one.

Not me, though. Souls-games never grabbed me the way they did others;
I play them, but that style of gameplay is more a detriment than bonus
in my eyes. And the big open world of "Elden Ring" also doesn't help;
I'm /tired/ of all these giant games. I never thought I'd say this,
but I miss the era when I could get through a game in ten hours.

But more power to those who enjoy this sort of thing. Just, um, maybe
drop by Usenet and say hello every now and again? ;-)

 There is s new Elden Ring game out?
Man, if I didn't check here once in a while I wouldn't know.
 I'm busy planning my next DnD and Traveller games (also Shadowrun)
  when I am not trying to get my uucp network running on my
  machine. We started putting one together lately, but now the
  other guy interested in it went on holidays and I am stuck
  talking to myself on it.
 

I just started playing the base game.  Still getting used to the controls and play til death once a day.  Watched a video on youtube and they said it is a very hard game.
