phil bottle got a reaction from GazzaGarratt in Scum (2023)
It's a very well made game but it requires a massive time investment. Your character is pretty robust but yes, until you're properly on your feet, it can be a bit precarious 🫠

They did 🏆👏
Great team effort considering some of the players like Delap were playing in the shitty club world shit cup 🤪

I've seen some gameplay and it looks like a lot of fun. Like Project Zomboid on steroids 🙂

Forza Horizon 4 or 5
You can do stuff if you choose, missions, challenges etc but you can also just cruise around. Both are great games 🙂
4 is set in the UK and 5 is Mexico.
Think they're on PS5 now as of quite recently

phil bottle got a reaction from J4MES OX4D in YouTube Adverts Becoming Intolerable
I (surprise surprise) fucking hate adverts in general. I dont watch tv so i get to avoid them there...but yes, it has gotten to the point on YouTube that I stop watching videos that I'm enjoying. There's an advert at the start of a 12 minute video, then a couple of minutes in I get a 50 seconder. I have no tolerance for it and I stop watching. It's fucking annoying, particularly when you also have to deal with the YouTuber plugging another product themselves part way through the video. It's ruined YT for me, but then again most of the content is mindless nonsense these days anyway🫠

I can't believe how bad YouTube has gotten of late - literally advert spam is insane and they are even worming their way into Premium which is a kick in the teeth to paying customers. I was watching an 8 minute video earlier and was presented with a 30 second advert, I then skipped about a minute of the video and was presented with the same advert which was unskippable once more. Not even halfway through and a 59 second video then popped up and to finish off, I was awarded the same 30 second advert I've already seen twice with about 40 seconds left of the video. So that was about two and a half minutes of adverts on an 8 minute video in which one was repeated 3 times!
Also checked out a System Shock 2 Remastered video which was from a stream and 3 hours 31 minutes long - there was about 40 advert slots in that alone. Assuming the majority are a minute and unskippable, that's almost half hour of adverts in a severely broken up video where if you wanted to quick-skip, you'll probably land on a one minute advert 6 clicks out of 7. You could sometimes bypass really annoying adverts by refreshing but now I seem to keep seeing the same ones over and over and maybe after 15 refreshes then I get lucky and hit a 5 second advert which can be skipped but even after all that, I've saved myself about 10 seconds.
It's just turned into extreme greed and done in the most laziest way imaginable. Seeing the same Primark/Bellingham adverts 15 times in 20 minutes watching videos is becoming torturous and they are planting so many in long-form videos now that it's making some unwatchable.

Lots of post release support for this game and more to come. Looks like they've git A-Life working properly now, so I'm sure I'll be testing that.

Tell you what @phil bottle, I'll let you try it first and then you can tell me how frustrating but fun this could be 😅
I don't think its a bad call that the other survival games are adding a little more support in the UI, storage or even objective based elements. I know how brutal DayZ was for us and I can see me absolutely raging at this for bleeding to death by tripping on a stick no doubt.
Having said that, they do have bikes, soooo......🤣

phil bottle got a reaction from GazzaGarratt in Tarkov PVE
An update recently stopped me playing for a bit as I had a decision to make. To take advantage of the update properly it meant wiping my character and all my progress. This was a tough decision but I finally did it today. Back to being a level 1 with my hideout barren of anything except candles to light it 😅

phil bottle reacted to GazzaGarratt in Witcher 4
That as a tech demo is probably something we have all been waiting to see on a PS5 since it launched. I think most people will need to at least try this game out to see and feel how it plays. I've started to try and play Witcher 3 but I must admit that the controls do feel clunky so hopefully that will be updated to feel more inline with most other games that are currently out.

Looks like Sony started issuing no questions asked refunds. Also Cohh's sponsored stream was cancelled at the last minute to avoid further humiliation for the publishers.
System-wide refunds may be on the cards and this could be another write-off.

I ventured into the forum and saw a few suspects who pre-ordered The Day Before previous, who were literally bumming the game. Don't know why people have a fetish in buying into shit games and defending products they literally have no idea about. Leslie Benzies is pretty washed in the industry now and was blinded by NFT's and Crypto so the GTA and Blockchain bollocks probably got a few deluded people on board but any proper gamer with a brain could see this was absolute slop nonsense with no substance.

Yeah it looks so basic it comes across like a scam, deary me, and also you'd have had to be a bit of an idiot to buy it without checking reviews. Then again the GTA connection probably blinded some...
