Unless you’re from the UK where their idea of treatment is getting you to give up seeking it.

Some of the boss fights felt amazing once you start learning their attack patterns, but then others were just... lacking. The savage fly one comes to mind. It wasn't particularly a difficult boss itself. But when it summoned ads, it became a fight around rng. It wasn't a fun fight at all. Felt like the devs realised it was too easy and chucked in ads then left it there.

Separately, why on earth the boss doesn't receive damage for slamming down on the spiky enemy when its spikes are deployed... Missed opportunity!

Same for me! But it’s also the first proper sci-fi series I read so it’s a bit skewed haha. However, I did truly enjoy it for the most part. Wasn’t a fan of how the ending turned out as one of the events just felt… cheap. Not to mention the lead character in the third book made me want to scream in frustration…

I’ve tried other sci-fi since and I’ve yet to find something that captures me. I started the Bobiverse which is a fun take, but it’s a completely different theme. So if any sci-fi vets have any recommendations I’m all ears!

Was the same for me too. I remember getting DoW2 and being so disappointed. Then 3 came along… I’ve given up them making a decent game again.

Even that DoW remaster isn’t looking good. I’m holding out until I see the reviews but if they’re only going with AI upscaled textures for £30 then no thanks.

Just to clarify, this doesn’t mean that the game is now DRM free. They just replaced it with Enigma. I’m not up to date with what Enigma does differently but it might be important to some.

I was introduced to WoT late too but before the TV shows. I started with Eye of the World and followed it all from there.

As for the slog people are warning you about, it may help to get the audiobooks if they’re a challenge to get through. However, you’ve got a while to go before worrying about that.

Enjoy the read, they’ll keep you busy a while!

Yeah, if you pirate and whatever... fair enough. Don't expect Nintendo to want to deal with you. But at least you know that is the risk you're taking.

The other group of people this will impact are those who dump (legally) their own games so that they don't have to swap out carts all the time. It's also going to suck for those who pick up a second hand console to find that their online access is restricted. I don't see an issue with Nintendo blacklisting a device from their services should it go against their ToS, but this just seems way too easy of a trap to walk into.

🤦‍♂️ How did I miss that…

I migrated away from Windows to Cachy OS earlier this year and I’ve never been happier. Linux still isn’t perfect for gaming but it’s night and day compared to the last time I tried like 10 years ago.

To be in this position the car has already ignored several warning signs and presumably maintained a speed that doesn’t allow it to break in time. So 1) Don’t let the car be in a position to have to make this choice in the first place. 2) Say fuck it, speed up and send that old lady flying. May as well give her the exit of her lifetime in the painless way possible…

For the short term I see the Switch 2 as just a better Switch. The games I couldn’t play due to frame rate are now playable (a very much throw money at the problem solution). But otherwise I agree, the Switch 2 library is pretty thin and it’s not worth the money currently. There’s only so much Mario Kart one can play and everything else is cross platform at a premium price.

Like Cyberpunk is cool but I already have it on Steam. And I certainly don’t fancy paying the switch 2 tax for the new Rune Factory and Fantasy Life. Fantasy Life literally has a “because we can” fee lol. It’s £2.50 to upgrade to the S2 edition ffs!

I came back to this game after putting it down for over a month and my surprise when it said there was an update available right as I did. Sadly I still need to get to what, chapter 9, for the dlc to begin? But there’s some additional quality of life improvements that are welcome to see.
