@Solidchief I got frustrated on that first puzzle, gave it a decent amount of time, but eventually realized I wasn't having fun and uninstalled it. If there's a walkthrough out I may eventually reinstall it for the achievements, but with so many other things to play, I'd rather play something that's a good time organically. It just wasn't my cup of tea.
I just restarted Witcher 3. I have a saved game from 2015, but I don't remember much of the hour or two I played back then. Coming into it seven years later, I'm finding it very approachable and looking forward to the journey.
@Blessed_Koz Good point. Even so, when watching streaming services I'll occasionally get an annoying HDCP error pop-up, usually when watching "free" content and the show cuts to or returns from the commercials shoehorned into the content. So far the only streamer that I have that isn't supported by the Xbox is Philo, so I'm using my new series X as my primary streaming device. A bit off-topic, but I'll definitely pay more attention to the HDMI standard. Thanks for the info.
@Reverandjames I bought a new HDMI cable rated at 8K bandwidth in preparation for the Series X but was disappointed that I couldn't get 4k/120hz. I replaced that cable with the one that came with the Series X and 4k/120hz became enabled. I thought I was future-proofing by getting a higher rated cable but just wasted my $.
@Vincent294 I agree. I think what they're saying is code for exactly that. I'm sure we aren't appreciating the tremendous pressure they were under to get the game out. I bought it but will just wait for a few weeks to play it.

@Banjo- Good point. Still no release date on it though, and tbh, it looks great as is.
