![]() The world is massive, dense with characters great and small who have problems they need Geralt to solve. Although its central plot offers a long and entertaining quest, there’s far more to the game than finding Geralt’s loved ones. Taking place after the events of the previous game, The Witcher 3follows the continuing adventures of Geralt of Rivia, a monster hunter searching for his lost lover, Yennefer, and Ciri, his adopted daughter. What’s missing in the The Outer Worlds is a memorable radio station pumping oldies into our ears. Overall, there’s a definite Fallout feel under all the alien landscapes and technology. Your choices heavily dictate how the story unfolds, such as diverting power from a local colony or withholding secrets from The Board. As with any other modern RPG, players gain side missions alongside the main story quests. You eventually gain a ship and travel to various settlements scattered throughout the system. Scientist Phineas Welles wakes you from cryosleep 100 years later, with a mission to infiltrate the Halcyon colonies and save fellow humans from The Board, a conglomerate of corporations. Your character originates from a colony ship, The Hope, that becomes lost as it travels through space to the Halcyon star system. The setting is an alternate timeline that sees corporations colonizing other worlds. That’s because the masterminds behind the popular series, Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky, are at the helm of this incredible first-person role-playing adventure, The Outer Worlds. If you ever yearned for Fallout in space, this is the closest relative you’ll likely ever see. The best part about Apex Legends? It’s free-to-play and none of the microtransactions give you a competitive advantage. And in a change from other battle royale games, you can bring teammates back to life after a bit of recon work. The gunplay is as good as Titanfall and feels great in the battle royale format, thanks to varied options and a bunch of cool attachments. The spacious sci-fi map is full of surprises and little details. There’s no need to even speak through a mic. The ping system lets you place markers on weapons, enemies, and other points of interest to help you keep your teammates informed. Apex Legends has the best nonverbal communication system we’ve seen in a multiplayer game. The 60-player format splits players up into teams of three, with each contest choosing from a pool of legends with unique abilities. While it doesn’t have the Titans or the awesome wall running, Apex Legends is a refreshing entry in the battle royale genre. It’s also very pricey for a Chromebook at $1,000, and its battery life is decent, but not superb at 10 hours and 18 minutes.Apex Legends is a squad-based battle royale from Respawn Entertainment, the studio behind the excellent Titanfall series. If the company goes under or stops supporting this model, then it’s just like any other Chromebook-when it breaks or its support runs out in June 2030, you’ll have to replace the whole thing. ![]() ![]() But this promise depends on Framework continuing to exist and supply parts for this Chromebook. You’ll be able to add more storage and memory, replace your battery, extend your ChromeOS support date by upgrading your mainboard with a new processor, or repair anything else if it breaks. Framework includes a screwdriver and handy QR codes by each internal part that direct you to step-by-step replacement guides with links to the exact parts you’ll need. Just like its Windows counterpart-which received a 10 out of 10 repairability score from iFixit and which we recommend in our Windows ultrabook guide-you can easily replace and upgrade the Framework Chromebook’s individual parts. If you want a repairable Chromebook: The Framework Laptop Chromebook Edition is what you’ve been waiting for. ![]() You can also turn an old Windows or Mac computer into a Chromebook, if you have an aging system lying around. If you can’t find a new Chromebook anywhere, consider a used Chromebook-but double-check the official end-of-support date before you buy. If none of our picks are available, we recommend setting up stock alerts through or browser extensions like Keepa. It can be difficult to find a decent Chromebook in stock during the back-to-school shopping season. If the C536 is unavailable, the virtually identical Asus Chromebook Flip CM5 (CM5500FDA-DN344T) is another great option. We don’t recommend this 4.3-pound laptop if you need to take yours to work, class, or even a coffee shop-it’s best used around the house. Its 15.6-inch touchscreen provides more room to do work or enjoy media, but it also makes the laptop bulkier. If you need a bigger screen and a number pad, the Asus Chromebook Flip C536 (C536EA-BI3T3) is the best option.
