Gaming solo doesn't mean gaming alone. This week, RGT takes the helm for a more intimate journey through his recent gaming adventures, bringing the same passion and insights our community has come to love.

Fresh off completing Lego City Undercover after a satisfying 15-hour campaign, RGT reflects on how this accessible open-world title balances simplicity with genuine fun. While not challenging, the game offers surprising depth with its collectibles and side missions that could easily extend playtime to 30+ hours for completionists.

The heart of this episode lies in RGT's unexpected love affair with Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition. Despite limited previous experience with JRPGs, he's become completely absorbed – logging an impressive 10 hours in just two days. His approach of mastering one system at a time offers valuable guidance for anyone intimidated by complex games. From the intricacies of combat to the sci-fi narrative of humanity rebuilding on an alien planet, RGT's enthusiasm for this former Wii U exclusive is infectious.

Gaming news brings promising developments across all platforms: Assassin's Creed Shadows surpasses 2 million players in 48 hours, Monolith Soft strengthens Nintendo's first-party lineup, and Xbox continues its commendable focus on game preservation and backwards compatibility.

Whether you're curious about Xenoblade's complex systems, contemplating your next open-world adventure, or simply looking for gaming companionship on your commute, join us for this shorter but content-rich episode. And remember – there's nothing wrong with being given the unofficial controller. It's what you do with it that counts.
