Folks, having produced an heir, I (34M) scheduled the big snip. The ol' flop-n-chop. Going pulp free. The swimmers are hanging up their caps and goggles. Loading the starter pistol with blanks. Going all cream, no pie.

The procedure is the Thursday before Indigenous People's Day (fuck Columbus with something splintery), and luckily coincides with a fair near my bride's hometown. She's taking our son (2M, feralboychild.exe has fully loaded) down to see her hometown, do his 2nd fair of the season, and whatnot. I'll miss them terribly, but at least I can spend a couple days couch-bound without fear of an accidental stitch from a flying toddler. I've got Friday afternoon to Monday afternoon.

So the question is this: what Xbox game am I going to download to keep me enthralled for the weekend? Current favorites include Titanfall 2, Borderlands, and Skyrim. Options I've considered are Ready or Not, Starfield, Space Marine 2, Dead Island 2.

I've preordered Borderlands 4, but won't be playing that outside of couch co-op with my wife; I'm aiming for sterility, not castration.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
