I literally only use my Xbox for Fortnite and Minecraft. Otherwise, most of the other games I play are either Nintendo games or old school games that couldn't possibly find their way on any currently played list, unless Analogue started measuring statistics. Fortnite and Minecraft are ever-changing and built on a solid foundation. They're the gifts that keep on giving. Sorry, everyone. I've failed you.
I love ray tracing on Fortnite on my Xbox Series X. The ray and path tracing make it look oh-so-sexy. It doesn't bring the framerate down either, which is nice, so I'm getting the best of both worlds. Ray tracing doesn't need to be a priority this generation, but next generation, it'll be nice to have as much as possible due to it taking the load off of artists and figuring out lighting, as @gamingfan4lyf said. It's nice to just work with natural lighting and being able to focus on assets.
I think the way ray tracing and it's delayed shadow response is very charming in it's infancy. It's not perfect, but I love imperfection.
I bought a Series X partially because of the disc drive. I recently picked up Rallisport Challenge, a Rally game published by Microsoft back on the OG Xbox, and it didn't work. It's the only physical Xbox game I own, so now I'm big sad.
That said, if I didn't already have a Series X, I'd think about this one. The Series X in black matches the Zune I never had.
@ebony-shabba I like it. Zero build is good for my lack of building skills (and skills in general), and the art+music is great. I'm not a fan of things that take themselves too seriously, so Fortnite is right up my alley. I have my reservations with Epic, but Fortnite is great, especially if you have a good squad to play with.

Not a fan of his look in the screenshot. I mean, I'm happy he fixed his constipation, but I think he was more charming with his bowels backed up.

@xMightyMatt14x How long have you had yours for?
I just impulse bought it, so I'm in it for the long (or short) haul regardless..!
