What games have you been playing recently?

Recently got the new Mario Kart. I can't speak from a competitive perspective, but from a casual standpoint, this game is probably the best in the series. The long straights, while not good from a competitive standpoint, are really great for a more casual game. Instead of navigating a complex series of sharp turns like in the normal tracks, you can focus more on items and talking with the people you're playing with. In contrast, the traditional tracks of previous games (which are still in this game) require a lot more focus. While this is good when you're by yourself, it's a lot harder to enjoy other's company when you need to put all your effort on playing well.

It's been a long time since I've been able to enjoy playing Mario Kart with others, or just simply having a more relaxed mindset. I know there's a lot of hate and frustration towards this game, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.
