I really enjoyed XVI. It is not without its problems but overall is a good addition to the series IMHO. I replayed XV as well after not caring for it on my first playthrough. I ended up really liking it the second time around. The story isn’t the best but the game shines in the personal interactions between the characters while you are wandering around and stuff. A lot of the story is really told indirectly through that and I came to appreciate it. Just my thoughts.
Congrats! I have a Galago Pro and a Gazelle that I purchased several years ago. They both work great and I am very happy with them. Love how open s76 is with all the documentation and software support. Have been considering ordering a desktop from them with an AMD GPU as a gaming machine. Enjoy the laptop!
