    Oh it's worse than that. You need to get an A rank or better on Hardcore mode. So they really make you suffer before improving the quality of life. Once they do though, it's suuuuuch a relief. The downside is that she clanks everywhere she goes instead.

    Oh yeah. The first time you play through it, those bits are rough. Then in NG+ Ashley has a suit of armour on which means she cannot be hurt, or carried. It makes the game 1,000 times funner.

    Why is "Content not viewable in your region" such a popular game on this forum?
  4. Thursday Next
    Completely agree. Like that it is an effective way of making you consider whether it is worth the noise of blasting a bunch of zombies, running around etc. vs playing more stealthily, but making him go away is a bit... tedious, whether you do it by shaking him off and getting some distance (normally in the wrong direction for your current objective), or by hiding in a safe room till he resets.

    iirc there are certain story beats where he disappears till you hit the next trigger, I looked up when those were and spent that time exploring everywhere I could before hitting the next trigger. It would be nice if there was a toggle or something for frequency of appearances so you could play a more "casual" mode.

    Ah, that sucks man. Hope you aren't wounded.

    Ghost of Yotei (coming soon to a "GotY" thread near you!) Enjoying Atsu's story, love the switching between past and future (shoutout to how quick and seamless switching between past and present, and fast travel is - it's a technical marvel). I do sorta wish perfect dodge and perfect parry were unlocked from the start as I am very used to those mechanics. Also, no idea how long I have to play to unlock the "listen" ability... It's wild to me that it wasn't there from the start. I checked the controls, saw "listen" is "Hold R3", held R3 and, nothing. Assuming it is an ability unlock at some point, but given how crucial situational awareness is, I think it is mad not to have it unlocked in the early tutorial section.

    VII and X remain my favourites. Probably driven as much by nostalgia for my school years as actual technical brilliance.

    How many times is Sekiro gonna die in the anime? Cos if it is anything like my playthrough there's gonna be whole episodes of him running back to fight father owl over and over again.

    It's my second one now, had an ID4 before. I bloody love them. The whole "EV range anxiety" thing I'm convinced is only experienced by people who don't drive electric. Also, this thing is fucking rapid. Like my ID4 used to go pretty quick, but the upgraded motors on the new models, not only go way further, but sooooo much faster. I did a 150mile round trip at the weekend, it used to take around 70% of the battery in my ID4, now only takes 50%, and that's without me even trying to be economical.

    Got myself a new whip... a VW ID5 in "Costa Azul" Blue. It's so pretty.

    That's what I meant by iii) I never did last time out. This time, I might be persuaded to upgrade to OLED mid-gen, but probably not.
  14. Thursday Next
    Getting it for Duskbloods, and I have an OG switch, so won't notice a "downgrade" from OLED. Absolutely nuts that they have not launched with OLED, but I guess it is due to either i) it would push the price up another $50-$100; ii) There are supply chain issues with OLED screens; and/or iii) they want to sell LCD screens, and then more OLEDs when they drop.

    Well, this thread got terrifying. I know (or rather trust) that you are all sensible people, so the fact that you feel that the increased risk of having a gun in your home (statistically one is more likely to be wounded by a weapon in one's home than a random one belonging to someone else) is necessary due to the current state of affairs is chilling. I hope you are all ok.

    I played this on a flight, love the surrealism. It smacks of the animation bits in Monty Python. Has a little bit of untitled goose game vibes too.

    "Super Switch" with a cool, lightning-bolt font would be amazing. Looking forward to picking up my Nintendo SS

    Well yeah, but there are always folks out there who will swear blind that can perceive a 0.00001Hz difference, so I'm holding space for them.
  20. Thursday Next
    I'd be stunned if a normal human could tell the difference between 144Hz and 165Hz unless they were side by side.

    Peak Designs went from being the backpack of revolutionaries to a pariah brand overnight. What a ride!

      Except for the whole giving the authorities information related to serial/batch numbers to help track the guy.

      That's what happened? Huh.

       

      I guess they could figure out who has what and narrow it down.

      It was all over socials, Peak had to turn off comments on their TikTok, and YouTube channels and were getting called "Rats" on LinkedIn.

    Playing Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1&2 remastered. I'm loving the nostalgia, but lord knows how I played these in the past. They tell you nothing. Like trying to navigate to the next area is "X place is to the East of Nosgoth" like, cool. But there is no map other than a world map. Games used to be so hard man! I love the dialogue. Some amazing insults, love hearing some received pronunciation "Degenerate!" being thrown around.

    Neat! Do you have a link?

    I played Horizon VR with 2kg wrist weights on, and let me tell you, it is hard firing a heavy bow constantly.

    Well... Shit. At least it's only 4 more years?

      Hopefully it's only 4 more years, I don't put anything past them.

      That's why I need to talk to my older brother and 55yo mom to maybe put together or at least think of contingencies of saving our collective prosperity (from the foundations of my great-grandparents and grandparents to what my parents' and my gen has built on top of said foundation. Generational wealth in other words) if relations with China really goes south or turns hot. I have heard enough to worry.

       

      And to be fair, I won't be surprised if the Dems are the ones to pull the trigger.
