Well, you win some, you lose some. I can only imagine how fulfilling having a kid can be (or at least seems to be based on watching my friends). Besides, kids grow up fast - you'll have plenty of time for games before you know it.
While I prefer modern/light sci-fi settings, I don't really mind fantasy in general. I just don't really vibe with Skyrim specifically and, unfortunately for me, it has the biggest mod scene within the series so it's much easier to find mods I like compared to older titles.
